Summary

Daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) De Fonkeling in Oudenbosch was inspected on 29 January 2026. The location provides care for a maximum of 30 children aged 2 to 4 years, divided across two core groups, and implements Early Childhood Education using the Pyramid method. All examined quality requirements have been met. The pedagogical practice is assessed positively: staff members act in accordance with the policy plan, provide appropriate stimulation and support, and ensure a safe and challenging environment. The early childhood education, staff qualifications, child-to-staff ratio, and stability of care meet the legal requirements. This is a positive development compared to previous years, in which multiple violations were identified regarding early childhood education and staff and groups. The operator has no comments on the report.
