Summary
This annual inspection concerns childminder Liesbeth Francis in Dirkshorn, registered with childminder agency Krokodilletje B.V. The inspection took place on 27 May 2026. The childminder provides care on Wednesday afternoons for 4 children aged 3 to 13 years. Initially, not all requirements were met due to a violation of the 'Health and safety risk assessment' item. The September 2025 risk assessment was not tailored to the current care location, as the childminding arrangement had moved from an outbuilding to the host family's home in January 2026 without a new risk assessment being carried out. Following a recovery offer, the childminder submitted an updated risk assessment within the recovery period, after which all requirements were met. Other areas including registration, pedagogical climate, accommodation, and reporting protocol were fully compliant from the outset. The advice to the municipality is: no enforcement action.
