Summary
The Municipal Health Service (GGD) inspected childminder/host parent care (gastouderopvang) de Ruijter-Hoogerdijk in Polsbroek on 2 December 2025. The location does not meet requirements in three areas. The host parent leaves a 2-year-old child sleeping alone at home during school pick-up, which is contrary to emotional safety. A structurally present adult is not registered in the Childcare Personnel Register (Personenregister Kinderopvang/PRK). The risk assessment lacks a justified measure for outdoor play without supervision; the host parent lets young children play outside independently near open water. The host parent shows resistance to corrections and lodged an objection. Following the investigation, she has announced measures: taking the 2-year-old child along, applying for the Certificate of Good Conduct (VOG), and no longer letting young children play outside alone. The GGD advises enforcement.
