Summary

GGD Kennemerland conducted an unannounced annual inspection on 4 March 2026 at after-school care (BSO) Vespercare Klimboom in Hoofddorp. The location provides care for 14 children aged 4 to 12 years, primarily children attending special education. All assessed quality requirements have been met: general conditions, pedagogical climate, staff and groups, safety and health, and parental rights. The pedagogical practice was assessed as responsible, with personal attention for children and good guidance in social interactions. Staff hold the correct qualifications and VOG (Certificate of Good Conduct) declarations. It was noted that the KvK branch number had not been reported to the municipality in a timely manner; this has since been rectified. No parent committee has been established, but due to the small number of childcare places, the provider is permitted to use alternative parent consultation, which is being sufficiently met.
