Summary
The Municipal Health Service (GGD) inspection on 10 March 2026 at childminder Vinck in Almere shows a predominantly positive picture. The childminder provides responsible care for two children (ages 5 and 10) in her home. The pedagogical practice is good: children feel at ease, the childminder responds adequately to signals and guides children in conflicts. The accommodation meets the requirements, with sufficient play space indoors and outdoors. However, three points were discussed that still need to be formally documented: agreements on screen time, risks of the swimming pool in the risk assessment, and agreements/consent for unsupervised outdoor play. Screen time was addressed during the visit: the television was on and a child was using a phone, without clear rules in place. The childminder did not submit a statement of objection.
