Summary
The Municipal Health Service (GGD) Groningen conducted an annual inspection on 1 October 2026 at childminder Boerma - van der Kuip in Veendam. Care takes place on Thursdays at the childminder's home via childminder agency Tweede Thuis, with 2 children aged 4-12 years. In general, the location complies with legislation and regulations. There was one shortcoming: the pedagogical work plan lacked a description of the settling-in procedure for new children.

The pedagogical practice is assessed positively: the childminder provides emotional security, stimulates personal and social development, and works with fixed routines. It is advised that no enforcement measures be taken.
