Summary

The annual unannounced inspection on 9 February 2026 at childminder Nurse-Versluis in Gorinchem shows that the provision meets all assessed quality requirements under the Childcare Act.

The childminder proved to be well informed about the pedagogical policy, the reporting code for child abuse, and safety measures. One safety risk was discussed: a bouncer seat that should preferably not be placed on the sofa. The childminder has taken adequate measures for safety and health, including an up-to-date risk assessment, smoke detectors, a safe sleeping protocol, and an emergency backup arrangement. No violations were identified and no areas for improvement were established.
