Violations

Summary
The annual inspection on 21 July 2026 at host parent Mrs. L. Eikelboom-Hop in Harderwijk presents a mixed picture. The host parent provides care for children aged 0–4 through host parent agency 4Kids. While the pedagogical practice, safety, accommodation and group composition are in order, two serious shortcomings have been identified. The host parent repeatedly failed to submit requested documents on time, resulting in a lack of cooperation with supervision. The pedagogical work plan also fails to meet statutory requirements: children's development is not described concretely and the elaboration of the four pedagogical basic objectives is insufficient. No recovery offer was made due to the lack of cooperation. The Municipal Health Service (GGD) advises enforcement.
