About this care

AI
Welcome to BSO Kastanjetuin, located at St. Josephstraat 5 in the heart of Breda. We are part of Kober, a trusted organization that has been providing quality childcare in the region for many years. Our location is situated right next to KBS St. Joseph primary school, ensuring a smooth and familiar transition from school to after-school care. At BSO Kastanjetuin, we combine the best of both worlds: the dynamics of the city and the tranquility of nature. Despite our central location, we offer children a surprisingly green environment. We have our own vegetable and herb garden at the edge of the school playground where children with green fingers can plant and care for their own vegetables and herbs. Additionally, we use the spacious gymnasium of the school for sports activities and have a creative studio where children can craft, paint, and build. Our pedagogical staff organize daily varied activities that match the interests and development of each child. From preparing popcorn in our kitchen to building huts in the garden, from sports and games in the gymnasium to creative projects in the studio. We believe that children develop best by playing, discovering, and exploring new talents in a safe and stimulating environment. We pick up children from KBS St. Joseph, KBS de Liniedoorn (on Fridays), and KBS de Spoorzoeker (on Wednesdays and Fridays). For parents, we offer the convenient Parent App through which we share daily photos and updates, so you can still experience a bit of what your child has been doing. BSO Kastanjetuin consists of two buildings: 'the House' at St. Josephstraat 3 and our location at St. Josephstraat 5. Both locations work closely together and share the same vision on childcare: giving children the space to be themselves, to grow, and to flourish in a homely atmosphere.

Strengths
0
Shortcomings
1
Violations
The location largely meets the statutory quality requirements; only one violation (parent committee) with mitigating circumstances.

Strengths

  • Pedagogical policy plan present and up to date
  • Four pedagogical core objectives are safeguarded
  • Sufficiently qualified staff and correct child-staff ratios
  • Stable base groups and mentor system
  • No complaints in 2024, good information provision and complaints procedure
  • Active alternative parent consultation and recruitment efforts

Violations

  • Parent committee has only one member, whereas a full committee is required (Art. 1.58 Childcare Act)

Summary

The after-school care (BSO) Kastanjetuin in Breda provides care for up to 100 children aged 4 to 8 years at St. Joseph primary school. The annual inspection on 4 August 2025 shows that the location meets the quality requirements for pedagogical climate, staff, and groups. The four pedagogical core objectives (emotional safety, personal and social competence, value transfer) are safeguarded. There is an up-to-date pedagogical policy plan, sufficiently qualified staff are present, and child-staff ratios are in order. Parents are well informed via website, app, and available documents; the complaints procedure and disputes committee are in order and 2024 was free of complaints. However, one violation was identified: the parent committee has only one member, whereas the Childcare Act requires a full committee. The organisation has made visible and active efforts to recruit parents (flyers, parent app, surveys, personal approach, minutes available) and provides alternative parent consultation. Due to these mitigating circumstances, the Municipal Health Service (GGD) advises the municipality not to enforce; the obligation to make efforts continues until a full parent committee is established.
