Summary

The Municipal Health Service (GGD) conducted an annual inspection on 8 January 2025 at childminder/host parent care (gastouderopvang) Steenbakkers in Rosmalen. The childminder provides after-school care for 3 children aged 4 to 11 years at the requesting parent's address. Regarding general conditions, pedagogical climate, requirements for the childminder, and accommodation, the location meets all requirements. However, there were shortcomings in safety and health: the risk assessment was not up to date, properly placed smoke detectors were missing, cleaning products were not stored safely, and the childminder had insufficient knowledge of the duty to report, consult, and file official reports. Following a recovery offer, the childminder has resolved all violations. The GGD advises no enforcement action.
