Summary

The annual inspection by GGD Twente on 28 May 2026 shows that Kind Centrum de Veste in Borne is functioning well overall. The childcare facility accommodates up to 96 children (0-4 years) in 6 core groups and works with the preschool education programme Startblokken. The pedagogical climate, staffing, safety and parental rights meet legal requirements. There is a relaxed atmosphere, children are playfully challenged and the staff-to-child ratios are in order. However, one violation was identified: a preschool education professional did not have the required language proficiency level 3F. The provider responded adequately by no longer deploying this staff member in the VE group and improving the onboarding process. The recovery offer has been fully implemented within the deadline.
