About this care
Kindcentrum De Kiem is a unique childcare center located in the heart of the vibrant community of Egmond aan den Hoef. We provide after-school care (BSO) for children aged 4 to 12 years at our location on Prinses Marijkelaan 1. As part of Blosse childcare, we operate from the conviction that every child is precious and can develop into a strong and independent individual.
Our after-school care is designed as an extension of the school day, where children can relax, play, and discover new things. We offer a safe and familiar environment where children can freely develop and discover their talents. Our pedagogical staff are ready to guide the children in their development and ensure a warm and homely atmosphere.
We believe in the power of learning through play and give children the space to grow. Our location has various spaces where children can choose between quiet activities or active engagement. We work with a horizontal group structure where children of different ages play together and learn from each other.
As a childcare center, we are at the heart of society and work closely with the primary school located on the same premises. This creates a continuous line in children's development and makes the transition from school to after-school care smooth and familiar.Read more

Summary
GGD Hollands Noorden conducted an unannounced annual inspection on 7 July 2026 at after-school care (BSO) Kindcentrum de Kiem in Egmond aan den Hoef. The location provides care for 42 children aged 4 to 13 years in 3 base groups. Most assessed conditions were met, including pedagogical policy, staffing, group structure, and mentor system. However, one violation was identified: staff members had insufficient knowledge of the option to consult the confidential inspector and the duty to file an official complaint with police in cases of suspected abuse by the holder. The duty to report suspicions regarding colleagues was known. The location manager took immediate action: staff were informed, the topic will be discussed in team meetings, and information has been visibly posted. The GGD advises enforcement.
