Summary

Kinderopvang Kings & Queens is an after-school care (BSO) in Amsterdam with 77 places for children aged 4-12. The inspection took place on 26 March 2025. The location offers a safe pedagogical climate: children have a fixed mentor, parents are involved in their development, and special needs are well monitored. Sufficient qualified staff are present and the safety policy is in order. However, two violations were identified: no back-up staff member was available during a moment with one staff member, and no parent committee has yet been established (more than 50 children). The back-up violation has since been resolved through new procedures and instruction. No recovery offer was made for the missing parent committee, but the provider demonstrates commitment to recruiting parents. The Municipal Health Service (GGD) advises the municipality not to enforce.
