Summary
The Municipal Health Service (GGD) inspected the childminder/host parent care (gastouderopvang) of M. Mackaaij in Alkmaar on 23 July 2024. Initially, a shortcoming was identified in the risk assessment for safety and health: missing signed parental consent declarations and a first aid kit with an expired use-by date. Following a recovery offer, the childminder remedied both issues in time by collecting the declarations and purchasing a new first aid kit. The location ultimately meets all assessed requirements. Other aspects such as registration, pedagogical climate, accommodation, and group composition were in order.
