Summary

The Municipal Health Service (GGD) inspection report dated 22 July 2026 for daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) Speelpaleis in Doorn presents a positive picture. The location, part of Stichting Kinderopvang SKDD and housed within woonzorgcentrum Beatrix, is compliant across all assessed domains: pedagogical climate, staff and groups, and accommodation. No violations or areas for improvement were identified. The location has capacity for a maximum of 12 children aged 0 to 4 years in a single group. Previous inspections in 2024 and 2025 revealed violations that were resolved through recovery offers (herstelaanbod), but the current inspection proceeds without any deficiencies. The operator acknowledged the findings in their statement of views. The GGD advises the municipality of Utrechtse Heuvelrug against taking enforcement action.
