About this care

The children of group Kapitein sail in their boat, cook in the home corner, discover in the construction corner, and jump and dance on the movement floor. The daycare center has its own outdoor playground with a small slide and sandbox.Read more
GGD Inspection
Violations
Inspection date: March 31, 2026
Strengths
- Pedagogical climate: warm, responsive interactions between staff and children; children are known by name and emotionally supported
- Staff and groups: sufficiently qualified staff, correct staff-to-child ratios, stable group composition with permanent staff members
- Accommodation: safe, accessible and age-appropriate indoor and outdoor spaces
Violations
- Safety and health: the evacuation instruction lacked concrete measures per age group and a description of the escape route; the practical feasibility of the evacuation route with an evacuation cot was insufficient (resolved after recovery offer)
- Parental rights: the link on the website to the most recent inspection report in the National Childcare Register was not working (resolved after recovery offer)
