Summary

GGD Kennemerland conducted a registration inspection on 31 August 2026 at childminder Harhour on Zandvoortselaan 60 in Heemstede. This concerns the relocation of an existing childminder/host parent care (gastouderopvang) to a new address. The care is mediated by childminder agency ViaViela and accommodates a maximum of 6 children. The childminder currently cares for two school-age children (nearly 8 and 11 years old) on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays. All examined domains meet the statutory quality requirements: general conditions, pedagogical climate, Certificate of Good Conduct (VOG)/expertise, premises, and safety/health. The childminder holds an intermediate vocational education level 3 (mbo-3) diploma in Childcare Pedagogical Worker, a valid first aid certificate, and pursues continuing professional development. The risk assessment has been carried out and the action plan has been fully implemented. No violations or areas for improvement were identified.
