About this care

AI
BSO De Buitenplaats is located on the beautiful sports complex at Randweg 5 in Geldermalsen. We are part of RivaKids and provide after-school care for children aged 4 to 12. Being outdoors is at the heart of everything we do: we play outside all year round, whatever the season. Our location features a large outdoor area with four football pitches, a tree house, a chill-out zone with hammocks and a campfire site where, under supervision, we can light a fire during the colder months. Our pedagogical staff collect the younger children from school; older children are allowed to make their own way to the BSO. We start calmly with fruit and whole-wheat crackers and enjoy a chat about the school day. Then the children choose for themselves: join an activity or free play. We offer 12 different sports, but also crafts, cooking with organic ingredients and creative activities in nature. Children come up with the most wonderful creations using natural materials they collect themselves. We work closely with local sports clubs and believe it is important that children learn to deal with their emotions and take good care of themselves and each other. Our BSO is small-scale and has room for a maximum of 22 children, ensuring short lines of communication and every child receives the attention they deserve. We are open after school and during all school holidays, including study days. Together we make sure every child feels safe, happy and at home at De Buitenplaats.

GGD Inspection

Improvements needed

Inspection date: September 1, 2025

4
Strengths
2
Shortcomings
0
Violations
Approved; all quality requirements are met following recovery of the pedagogical policy plan.

Strengths

  • Adequately sized and safe indoor and outdoor play areas
  • Safety and health policy is complete
  • Changes reported in a timely manner
  • All declarations regarding conduct (VOG) present and registered

Shortcomings

  • Pedagogical policy plan needed to specify more concretely how one base group of 30 children (ages 4-12) provides emotional safety and stability
  • Group structure and staffing deployment needed to be described more clearly

Summary

After-school care (BSO) de Buitenplaats in Geldermalsen wished to increase its number of places from 22 to 30. The Municipal Health Service (GGD) investigated on 1 September 2025 whether the location meets all requirements for this expansion. The indoor and outdoor spaces are sufficiently large and safe, the safety and health policy is in order, and the holder has updated all documentation on time. There were initially two shortcomings in the pedagogical policy plan: an insufficient description of the group structure and of how emotional safety would be ensured for one large group of 30 children. The organisation was given one week to make adjustments; the recovery was approved. No violations remain. The GGD advises the municipality of West Betuwe to permit the expansion.
