Summary

Hero Peuteropvang Jan Sluyterslaan is a temporary toddler daycare for 16 children (ages 2–4) in Haarlem. The location is moving from Vrijheidsweg to Jan Sluyterslaan from 17 August 2026 to 23 August 2027 due to school expansion. The Municipal Health Service (GGD) inspection for registration concludes that the daycare center will reasonably meet the quality requirements. No violations were identified. Several action points regarding the outdoor play area (shared with another operator) were discussed and will be documented in the staff meeting on 20 August 2026. The post-registration inspection will follow within three months.
