50 Years of Robbeburg: Community, Childcare & Belonging

A celebration of community-led childcare and what long-standing support systems mean for families raising children abroad.


This week, host Eva takes us inside Robbeburg—a family-founded community center in Amsterdam Zuid that has welcomed parents and little ones for 50 years. Volunteer Kelli joins to share how this special space continues to thrive, why it matters for families in a growing city, and how you can support Robbeburg’s future.
