Summary

This annual inspection of 30 March 2026 concerns the childminder/host parent care (gastouderopvang) of Backus in Almelo, registered for 6 childcare places for children aged 0-4 years. The care takes place in the host parent's home through host parent agencies Snoesje and ViaViela. Overall, the facility complies with legislation and regulations. The pedagogical quality is good: the host parent works sensitively and responsively, tailors activities to each child's development, and communicates well with parents. However, there were shortcomings in the safety and health risk assessments. Both assessments were not up to date: the number and type of sleeping places did not match practice (use of camp bed and stroller was missing from the description), and the list of permanently present persons was outdated. A recovery offer was made, after which the host parent updated and signed the risk assessments. After recovery, all assessed conditions are met.
