Summary

GGD Hollands Noorden inspected Babbels BSO 3Kwartier in Heerhugowaard for registration as a new after-school care (BSO) facility for a maximum of 44 children (ages 4–13). The location, part of Babbels Extern B.V., is scheduled to open on 17 August 2026. The inspection took place before the facility became operational, meaning some components could not yet be assessed in practice. The GGD expects responsible childcare and advises inclusion in the National Childcare Register (Landelijk Register Kinderopvang). No violations were identified. Some practical preparations, such as installing fencing and play equipment in the outdoor area, had not yet been completed at the time of inspection but will be finalized before opening.
