Summary

The daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) 't Lieveheersbeestje B.V. in Amsterdam was inspected unannounced on 1 June 2026 by GGD Amsterdam. The location provides care for a maximum of 16 children aged 0 to 4 years. The team consists of 1 assistant manager, 6 permanent staff members and several regular substitute staff, supported by 4 trainees who are present as surplus staff. The inspection assessed the pedagogical climate, staff and groups, safety and health, and early childhood education. All assessed quality requirements are met. The pedagogical practice is responsible: staff provide emotional security, stimulate independence and language development, and work with a fixed daily routine. The safety and health policy is well implemented, including protocols for safe sleeping and heat. There are moments when fewer staff work than formally required, but this is at most half of the required number and never longer than 3 hours per day, with another adult always present. The licence holder did not submit a response.
