Summary

Daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) Ieniemienie in Rotterdam offers half-day care to 16 children aged 2-4 years and works with the early childhood education program Uk & Puk. The inspection on 31 May 2024 found the quality to be predominantly good: the pedagogical practice is positive, the spaces are safe and age-appropriate, and the administration is complete. Strong points include the stimulating language environment, children's involvement in tidying up, and clear communication with parents. There were two violations: the training plan for early childhood education was incomplete, and staff had insufficient knowledge of the duty to report, consult, and file official notifications. Following a recovery offer, the first violation has been fully resolved; for the second, knowledge has been increased, but not all staff members know the procedure when the holder themselves is involved. The Municipal Health Service (GGD) advises the municipality to enforce.
