About this care
Welcome to Christelijk Dagverblijf ‘de Uitvinder’, a warm and small-scale childcare centre located at Molenstraat 153 in the heart of Oss. We offer care for up to 16 children aged 0 to 4 years. Our approach is rooted in safety, trust and personal attention. We work in one vertical group, where children of different ages play and learn together. This creates a homely atmosphere and supports social development.
Our Christian identity is visible in everything we do. We actively celebrate biblical holidays such as Christmas, Easter and Pentecost. Every month, we open the ‘theme suitcase’, developed by our manager Karin Cauwels. This suitcase contains materials and activities based on a current theme, always linked to a Bible story. In this way, children learn about faith, values and norms through play.
Creativity is highly valued. We offer more than just drawing or crafting – children also enjoy puppet theatre, drama games and group activities. We give children space to explore and create at their own level. Our staff guide them with passion and patience.
We provide fruit, lunch and dairy products. For the youngest children, we ask parents to bring formula and any special dietary food, clearly labelled with the child’s name. Together, we create a safe and familiar environment.
We are open Monday to Friday from 7:30 AM to 6:00 PM, with occasional extension by half an hour. We believe children should feel at home with us. That’s why we keep our setting small and homely. Feel free to visit for an introduction or let your child join for a day. We’d love to show you around!Read more

Summary
The annual inspection conducted on 6 August 2026 at Christian daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) 'De Uitvinder' in Oss shows that the location meets all assessed quality requirements. The childcare accommodates 16 children aged 0 to 4 years in one core group, housed in a residential building. The pedagogical practice is strong: children are challenged in their development through educational activities, independent play, and the stimulation of autonomy. Norms and values are conveyed through stories, conversations, and positive boundary-setting. Safety and health are well secured through up-to-date policy that is followed in practice, with attention to hygiene, sun protection, and safe outdoor play. Parental rights are safeguarded: parents are well informed, there is an active and satisfied parent committee, and complaints are handled thoroughly through the Childcare Disputes Committee (Geschillencommissie Kinderopvang). The inspection history shows three previous violations (safe sleeping in 2023, deployment of pedagogical policy staff member in 2024, risks and information in 2025), all of which were resolved following a recovery offer. This inspection found no new violations or areas for improvement.
