Childproofing a Farm-Based Daycare

Location: Cothen, The Netherlands
Client: De Brienenshof Daycare
Typology: Childcare, farm-based daycare
Products supplied: Finger Alert Professional, Finger Alert Extreme

A safe solution, close to home
Although Arte Viva is active in more than 50 countries, we find it just as valuable to work on projects close to home. Cothen is literally around the corner for us, which made it extra special to implement our child safety solutions at De Brienenshof Daycare. This green, small-scale daycare on a family farm gives children the opportunity to grow up surrounded by nature – and we are proud to have contributed to creating a safe environment here.

Because the location is nearby, we visited in person to assess the situation. For each door, we provided tailored advice to ensure that safety perfectly matched the needs of the daycare.

Farm-based Daycare De Brienenshof

Farm-based Daycare De Brienenshof is located on a traditional dairy farm where cheese and dairy products are made. Founder Martina fulfilled her long-cherished dream by starting a daycare on the farm. Her background in primary education and her desire to bring children closer to nature are the foundation of this unique project.

The daycare is deliberately small-scale, with children grouped by age and plenty of personal attention. Parents are closely involved through intake meetings, daily handovers, and themed evenings. Outdoors, the children experience farm life every day: feeding the cows, bringing fruit to the pigs, or playing among the sheep and goats. In this way, they grow up in an environment where nature, care, and play go hand in hand.

Safe play, indoors and outdoors

Movement and discovery are essential to child development, but safety always comes first. That’s why we supplied:

  • Finger Alert Professional door finger guards for interior doors, preventing small fingers from getting trapped in door hinges.
  • Finger Alert Extreme, a wider version of the Professional model, installed on exterior doors with larger openings for extra coverage and protection.

Both solutions are TÜV-certified, durable, and easy to install. The chosen anthracite finish blends seamlessly with the door frames, making the protection almost invisible. This ensures maximum safety without compromising the warm, homelike atmosphere of the daycare.

De Brienenshof Daycare shows how childcare, nature, and safety can reinforce one another. Thanks to the Finger Alert Professional system, children can play and learn freely in an environment that supports their development while keeping them safe.
