About this care
Kindcentrum de Meulenbeek BSO is a small-scale after-school care facility located within De Meulebeek primary school at Watermolenstraat 3 in Oostrum. We provide care for up to 33 school-age children from 4 to 13 years old. Thanks to our unique location within the school, we work closely with teachers: we play outside together with the younger students and regularly organize joint activities.
Our open-door policy ensures that children of different ages can meet each other. Siblings can easily see each other and we work in a very child-centered way. We have a small, close-knit team of pedagogical professionals who work in both toddler care and after-school care. They ensure that your child gets plenty of outdoor play time, including in the nearby playground and the village's multi-sports field. Enjoying the outdoors is central to our approach!
We offer before-school care from 7:30 β 8:30 AM and after-school care on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday from 2:15 β 6:00 PM. On Wednesday this is from 12:30 β 6:00 PM. During school holidays and on study days we provide holiday care from 7:30 AM β 6:00 PM. Extended care from 7:00 AM and until 6:30 PM is possible under certain conditions.
Our vision is based on 'observe, follow and challenge'. We consciously look at each child's uniqueness, follow their development and provide appropriate activities and challenges. Together with parents, school and other involved parties, we ensure a continuous developmental path for your child.Read more
GGD Inspection
Improvements needed
Inspection date: February 10, 2026
Strengths
- Sufficient indoor play space (206.7 mΒ², exceeding the minimum requirement of 154 mΒ²)
- Sufficient outdoor play space (safe, accessible schoolyards and grass field)
- Pedagogical policy plan contains concrete descriptions of base groups and staff-child ratios
- Modification request submitted to the municipality in a timely and correct manner
- Location offers preschool care and holiday care
Shortcomings
- The layout of the BSO2 group room should be adapted to create a more homelike, less school-like environment
Summary
GGD Limburg-Noord conducted an unannounced incidental inspection at BSO Kindcentrum de Meulenbeek in Oostrum on 10 February 2026. The inspection was carried out in the context of an application to increase the number of childcare places from 33 to 44. The inspection assessed general conditions, the pedagogical climate, and the accommodation. The location meets all legal requirements for the requested expansion. One point of attention was identified: the group room of BSO2 (for children aged 7-13) has a predominantly school-like character and does not yet sufficiently align with a homelike after-school care (BSO) environment. The provider has indicated they wish to improve this in consultation with the school.
