Summary

Daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) Vuurvogel in Tilburg, part of Kinderstad Kinderopvang B.V., was inspected on 2 July 2026 by GGD Hart voor Brabant. The location provides day care for 80 children aged 0 to 4 years in five core groups, including subsidized early childhood education. The inspection showed that the location largely meets the quality requirements. One violation was identified in the toddler group Boomklevers: the space was insufficiently set up for early childhood education without theme-based activities or a theme table. Following a recovery offer, the operator has drawn up an action plan with measures including a permanent theme corner and storytelling table, with which the violation will be remedied from the new school year onwards. Other areas such as pedagogical practice, staff qualifications, safety and health fully complied.
