Summary

The annual inspection of 17 April 2026 at daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) Cornelius in Venhorst shows a predominantly positive picture. The location, part of GOO Opvang B.V., provides care for 32 children aged 0 to 4 years in two groups. The quality requirements for pedagogical climate, staff and groups, and parental rights were met immediately. For safety and health, two violations were initially identified: an insufficiently detailed action plan in the safety and health policy, and insufficient staff knowledge of the mandatory reporting, consultation and disclosure obligations. Both violations were remedied following a recovery offer. The pedagogical practice is valued as sensitive and responsive, with attention to emotional safety and individual development. The advice to the municipality is: no enforcement action.
