At Gastouderbureau Loky, we find the perfect match between your family and a professional childminder (gastouder). We come to your home for a personal introductory meeting to fully understand your needs. With our large and diverse pool of childminders, we can find a suitable solution for almost any situation: flexible hours, evening or weekend care, care at the childminder's home or at your own home. After the match, we stay involved with annual evaluations, replacement during illness or holiday, and support with questions about childcare benefit (kinderopvangtoeslag).

Gastouderbureau Loky is active in North Holland with a focus on the region around Avenhorn. We place childminders in various municipalities in North Holland and can find a suitable childminder for almost any location in this region.

All childminders have a Certificate of Good Conduct (VOG) and are screened regularly.

Gastouderbureau Pollewop offers personal childminder (gastouder) care with finding the right match for your child at its heart. We come to your home for a free intake interview to get to know your wishes and needs. Based on this, we search for at least two suitable childminders for an introduction. After the match, we hold evaluation interviews after 6 weeks and 3 months to ensure the care meets your expectations. Our pedagogical professional observes your child annually and prepares development reports, and when transitioning to primary school you receive a transfer portfolio.

  • Group composition during inspection was correct with an appropriate number of children
  • Childminder organizes care independently and remains personally present with the children
  • Sleeping arrangements have been improved through purchase of a camping bed and clearing out the cot

Shortcomings

  • Stairs must be kept clear of items due to escape route requirements and tripping hazard
  • Stair railings must be complete and remain in place

Violations

  • Too many children present simultaneously during annual inspection on 3 March 2026 (7 children, including own 8-year-old child)
  • Insufficient supervision: childminder not present, children cared for by adult household member during annual inspection on 3 March 2026

Summary

The unannounced follow-up investigation at childminder Koopen in Beverwijk took place on 7 September 2026, following violations identified during the annual inspection on 3 March 2026. The inspection assessed whether the childminder meets the set conditions and is implementing the action plan. The childminder provides care for six children from Monday through Friday. During the inspection visit, five guest children were present, fitting within the group composition. The childminder was found to be familiar with the pedagogical policy and acts accordingly. Observations were noted regarding accommodation and furnishings: the stairs were not entirely clear of items and several stair railings were missing, though ordered and later installed. The childminder received and utilized a recovery offer following the earlier inspection in March 2026, when the sleeping space, group composition, and risk assessment were found to be inadequate. The violations concerned, among other things, too many children present, insufficient supervision by another adult, use of a collapsible playpen as a sleeping place, and a blocked escape route. The follow-up investigation found that the childminder now meets the quality requirements. The Municipal Health Service (GGD) advises no enforcement action.
