Summary

Daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) De Speelkamer in Roden was inspected on 5 February 2026. The location provides care for a maximum of 12 children (ages 0–4) in one vertical base group. Overall, the childcare meets the quality requirements well, with a warm pedagogical climate in which staff maintain trusting relationships with the children and actively stimulate their development. However, one violation was identified: a trainee who has been present weekly since November 2025 did not possess a Certificate of Good Conduct (VOG) and was not registered in the Childcare Personnel Register. The provider immediately applied for a VOG upon discovery and will register the trainee as soon as it is received.
