Summary

The Municipal Health Service (GGD) inspected BabbelKOM (daycare center/kinderdagverblijf/KDV) in Wapenveld on 19 May 2026 for registration in the national childcare register. This concerns the relocation of an existing toddler group to primary school De Lichtbron, with 16 toddler places for children aged 2–4 years. The inspection was carried out according to the 'strict at the gate' principle. All assessed domains meet the legal requirements: pedagogical climate, staff and groups, safety and health, accommodation, and parental rights. The pedagogical policy is comprehensive and concrete, with attention to early childhood education, mentorship, and settling-in policy. The accommodation provides sufficient indoor and outdoor space. No violations or areas for improvement were identified. The licence holder responded positively to the report and emphasized the good cooperation with the school.
