Summary

BSO De Samenstroom in Gemert, part of GOO Opvang en Onderwijs, was inspected by GGD Brabant-Zuidoost on 4 August 2026. The annual unannounced inspection assessed the pedagogical climate, staff and groups, and parental rights. All assessed areas meet statutory requirements. The after-school care (BSO) location provides care for 60 children across four core groups for ages 4 to 13. The pedagogical policy is clearly documented and practice aligns well with it. Staff hold correct qualifications and Certificates of Conduct (VOG). The complaints procedure is in order and the provider is a member of the Childcare Disputes Committee (Geschillencommissie Kinderopvang). In 2025, there were two formal complaints regarding swap credit policy and staff member conduct. The 2025 annual complaints report was not shared with parents before 1 June; this has since been resolved following a recovery offer at another location of the same provider. The GGD advises no enforcement action.
