Summary

The Municipal Health Service (GGD) inspected the after-school care (BSO) CompaNanny 7e Montessori in Amsterdam on 21 October 2025. The location provides care for a maximum of 40 children divided across two base groups: Junior (ages 4-7) and Club (ages 7+). The pedagogical climate is positive: children feel emotionally safe, staff are attentive and engaged, and the group spaces are well designed. However, three violations were identified in the pedagogical policy: missing descriptions of staff deployment and ratios during school days, missing procedures for independent play in the gymnasium, and insufficiently described tasks for BOL level 2 trainees. The operator resolved all violations within the deadline through a recovery offer by submitting an adjusted work plan and policy plan. The GGD advises the municipality not to impose any measures.
