Strengths

Shortcomings

Violations

After-school care (BSO) Blink Muziekwijk does not meet the assessed requirements of the Childcare Act. Shortcomings have been identified in multiple areas, including stability of care and safety policy. The operator has drawn up an action plan to sustainably restore quality within five months.

Strengths

Staff members hold appropriate qualifications and meet the BSO language requirement
Sufficient staff deployed according to staff-child ratios
BBL students (work-based learning students) are deployed as additional staff
Operator acknowledges shortcomings and is willing to address them
Action plan drawn up with concrete improvement measures

Shortcomings

Pedagogical policy needs to be substantively expanded and translated more concretely into daily practice
Logistical issues around school pickup need to be resolved so children are not interrupted in their play
Safety and health policy needs to be better updated and adhered to
Procedure for temporarily leaving the group room must be documented
Create a clear overview of responsibilities within the organisation

Violations

Children are not cared for in one fixed group: children from location Blink Stedenwijk are being cared for at location Blink Muziekwijk without this being contractually formalised (only parental consent, no structural arrangement)
Insufficient adherence to safety and health policy: no pictograms present on stairs despite this being required in policy, staff member leaves first floor leaving children to play unsupervised
Temporarily no adult with a valid first aid certificate present (resolved following recovery offer)

Summary

The inspection report of 11 February 2026 concerns an unannounced incidental inspection at after-school care (BSO) Blink Muziekwijk in Almere. The inspection took place following a report about inadequate quality from trainees, merging of locations, and physical safety. The location does not meet all assessed requirements. Shortcomings were identified regarding stability of care (children from another location being cared for without contractual formalisation) and safety policy (insufficient adherence to policy, temporarily no first-aider present). The operator received a recovery offer for the first aid situation, which was accepted and resolved. An action plan has been drawn up with evaluation moments in April and July 2026.
