Summary

Kindcentrum Klimop BSO in Aarle-Rixtel was inspected unannounced on 21 April 2026 by GGD Brabant-Zuidoost. The after-school care (BSO), part of GOO Opvang en Onderwijs, accommodates 64 children across three base groups (4+, Egels and Bosuilen). On all assessed components – pedagogical climate, staff and groups, and accommodation – the location meets the statutory quality requirements. The pedagogical policy is clear and implemented as intended. The pedagogical practice scores well on all four basic objectives of Riksen-Walraven. Staff hold the correct diplomas and Certificates of Conduct (VOG), and the staff-to-child ratios are in order. The accommodation meets requirements with 4 m² of indoor play space per child (minimum 3.5 m²) and sufficient outdoor space via a rooftop terrace and school playground. The operator has endorsed the findings in their statement of response.
