Summary

The Municipal Health Service (GGD) conducted an unannounced annual inspection on 4 December 2025 at after-school care (BSO) Hobbithoeve MatchZo in Amsterdam. The after-school care, part of HestiaHebe B.V., accommodates up to 20 children aged 6-12 years in the Driemond community centre. The pedagogical practice meets all quality requirements: staff stimulate independence, social skills and personal development in a sensitive manner. One administrative shortcoming was identified: the trade name in the National Childcare Register (Landelijk Register Kinderopvang/LRK) does not match the trade register. This was discussed with the holder, who has committed to correcting it. There are no violations or areas for improvement regarding staff, groups or parental rights.
