Summary

This inspection report concerns an annual check of the childminder/host parent care (gastouderopvang) of L.A.M. Aarntzen-Lubbers in Pannerden, carried out by Municipal Health Service (GGD) Gelderland Midden on behalf of the municipality of Zevenaar. The childminder provides care in her own home for a maximum of four children and is affiliated with childminder agency (gastouderbureau) ViaViela. Overall, the care setting meets the statutory quality requirements well. The pedagogical practice, requirements for the childminder herself, and the theme of safety and health all scored positively. One violation was identified in the area of accommodation and premises: the smoke detectors were not installed correctly according to the Building Decree (Bouwbesluit). The childminder made use of the recovery offer (herstelaanbod) and remedied the deficiencies within two weeks by installing additional smoke detectors and relocating existing ones. Following remediation, the care setting meets all requirements.
