Summary

The annual inspection on 22 April 2026 of the after-school care (BSO) location of Kinderdagverblijf Kumari in Heeze presents a mixed picture. The pedagogical practice and personnel matters are satisfactory, but multiple violations were identified in policy, which have been resolved through a recovery offer. The location provides care for 40 children aged 4 to 12 years. All staff hold the correct qualifications and certificates of conduct (verklaring omtrent gedrag/VOG). The safety and health policy was not up to date, and the back-up arrangement did not meet requirements when staff deployment deviated from standard ratios. The pedagogical policy also had shortcomings on multiple points, including descriptions of settling-in procedures, trainees, and activities outside the base group. The holder has remedied all violations. The advice to the municipality is: no enforcement action.
