Violations
Not all assessed conditions were met. Violations were identified regarding pedagogical policy, stability of care, and complaints/annual report (the latter resolved following a recovery offer).

Strengths

  • Early childhood education (VE) well organized with the Startblokken programme
  • Safety and health policy is up to date and being followed
  • Protocol for domestic violence and child abuse adequately established and promoted
  • Parent committee is well organized with its own working methods
  • Staff are properly registered in the childcare personnel register (PRK)

Violations

  • Failure to act in accordance with the pedagogical policy plan: deviating from the fixed face criterion without treating this as a measure of last resort
  • Stability of care for children not guaranteed: multiple unknown temporary staff deployed, parents not informed in advance about daily staffing
  • Annual complaints report not compiled location-specific (resolved following recovery offer)

Summary

The Municipal Health Service (GGD) inspection report dated 11 June 2026 for childcare location De Helix in Heerhugowaard presents a mixed picture. The location, part of Stichting Allente, provides care for a maximum of 64 children in 3 core groups for ages 0-4 years. Although early childhood education, safety, health and parental rights are largely well arranged, there are serious shortcomings regarding staff stability. Due to prolonged illness, unexpected absences and staff shortages, there was structural deviation from the fixed face criterion. Parents were also not informed in advance about which staff members would be working. The annual complaints report was not location-specific, but was subsequently approved following a recovery offer. The GGD advises enforcement.

Leuke basis school. Het moet bij je kind en jou passen en aansluiten op hoe jij denkt over onderwijs
