About this care
KDV De Boomkruipers is a vertical daycare group for children aged 0 to 4 years, located in Kindcentrum De Beukenlaan at Beukenlaan 42 in Winschoten. We provide calm and structured care for up to 16 children. Our approach centers on free movement, free play, and attentive care. For toddlers, we use the Peuterplein program, which aligns with Kleuterplein, the method used in groups 1 and 2 of primary school. The children have access to a living area with various play corners and an adjacent outdoor play space.
De Boomkruipers is part of Stichting Kinderopvang KiWi. Our pedagogical approach aims to give every child the feeling: 'I am me and that's okay'. We work in a child-centered way, give personal attention, and take time for each child. By actively listening and stimulating development, every child gets the chance to discover their own possibilities.
Our location offers a safe and secure environment where children can develop optimally. We use a vertical group structure, where babies from 10 weeks, toddlers, and preschoolers are cared for together in one group. This setup stimulates social development and gives younger children the opportunity to learn from older children.Read more

Summary
The annual inspection of daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) De Boom Kruipers in Winschoten presents a mixed picture. The location meets the requirements for staff and groups, with well-trained staff members and sufficient staffing levels. The domestic violence reporting protocol and complaints procedure are also in order. However, there are serious shortcomings in the areas of pedagogical policy, early childhood education, safety and health, and parent participation. The pedagogical policy is not accessible to staff members, making it impossible to work in accordance with policy. The safety and health policy is largely absent, with concrete risks in the toddler group such as an unprotected heater and a kettle on a low counter. The parent committee is not active and alternative parent consultation does not take place. A recovery offer was made and satisfactorily completed for recruiting parent committee members.
