About this care
AI
PSG De Duifjes is a small-scale daycare centre located at Geert Topelenstraat 9 in the heart of Drieborg. We welcome up to sixteen children aged 0 to 4 years, offering them a safe and familiar second home. As part of Stichting Kinderopvang KiWi, we share the same core values: commitment, quality and personal attention for every child.
At PSG De Duifjes, the development of the young child is central. We provide pre-school education (VE), playfully laying the foundation for language, numeracy and social skills. Our pedagogical staff closely follow the children’s world of experience and tailor activities to their individual pace and interests. The small group size allows for intensive guidance and creates a homely atmosphere in which children feel safe and valued.
Our location has been officially registered in the National Childcare Register since 11 March 2025 under number 411020043. This allows parents to apply for childcare allowance and ensures the centre is subject to supervision by the GGD Groningen. We work according to the statutory staff-child ratios and apply clear safety and hygiene protocols.
PSG De Duifjes is here for working parents in Drieborg and the surrounding area who are looking for small-scale, reliable childcare. We offer a warm environment where children can play, discover and grow, while parents can work with peace of mind.Read more

Violations
Several quality requirements have not been met. The location does comply with requirements for staff and groups and accommodation, but not with general quality and compliance conditions, pedagogical climate, safety and health, and parental rights. The Municipal Health Service (GGD) advises the municipal executive to take enforcement action in accordance with the enforcement policy.
Strengths
- Staff and groups: sufficient qualified staff present with correct qualifications and Certificate of Conduct (VOG)
- Staff and groups: staff-to-child ratio is being observed
- Staff and groups: stability of care is ensured with a fixed mentor for each child
- Accommodation: indoor and outdoor spaces are safely and appropriately furnished
- Domestic violence and child abuse reporting protocol has been adequately established
Shortcomings
- Update information provision to parents: website contains outdated policy documents and a dead link to the safety policy
- Organise a parent committee or alternative parental involvement: parents are insufficiently involved in policy matters
- Supplement complaints procedure with missing elements regarding response timeframes and written feedback
- Make safety and health policy more concrete and submit a risk assessment
Violations
- Registration: the location is registered as an early childhood education (VVE) location but does not provide early childhood education, meaning the operation is not in accordance with the established rules
- Pedagogical policy: the location guide contains contradictory information about opening hours and no concrete description regarding deviation from the familiar face
- Early childhood education (VVE): despite VVE registration, insufficient hours are offered (two mornings is too few for 960 hours over 1.5 years) and the staff member does not hold a valid VVE certificate
- Safety and health: the safety and health policy lacks concrete descriptions of the four-eyes principle, evaluation process, accessibility for those involved, backup arrangement and risk assessment; during inspection, the pedagogical staff member was alone in the group with the door closed and no visibility
- Parental rights information: parents are not fully informed about current policy via the website
- Parent committee: the holder has shown insufficient effort to establish a parent committee or alternative involvement
- Complaints procedure: not fully compliant with statutory requirements regarding response timeframes and written opinion
