Kinderopvang & BSO Grumpie

Strengths

• Indoor space for the toddler early childhood education group is insufficient for the registered 16 childcare places (50 m², while 56 m² is required)

Violations

• Early childhood education: not working in accordance with the pedagogical policy plan; no baseline assessments; no activity planning based on individual development goals
• Certificate of Conduct (Verklaring Omtrent het Gedrag/VOG) and Childcare Personnel Register (Personenregister Kinderopvang/PRK): trainee was not linked to the holder (resolved via recovery offer)
• Domestic violence and child abuse reporting protocol: missing assignment of responsibilities and final responsibility (resolved via recovery offer)
• Space requirements: outdoor play area was not accessible from 11-18 November 2025 due to repair works; indoor space for toddler early childhood education group insufficient for 16 childcare places

Summary

The annual Municipal Health Service (GGD) inspection of 18 November 2025 at daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) Grum pie in 's-Gravenhage shows a mixed picture. The location, open since 2016 with three groups for a maximum of 36 children (ages 0-4), meets quality requirements in several areas, but four violations have been identified. Two of these have been resolved through a recovery offer. The most serious violation concerns early childhood education: staff are not working in accordance with the pedagogical policy plan, baseline assessments are missing, and activities are not tailored to individual development goals. The remaining violations concern a trainee who was not linked in the Childcare Personnel Register (Personenregister Kinderopvang/PRK) (resolved), an incomplete domestic violence reporting protocol (resolved), and inadequate indoor and outdoor spaces. The outdoor rooftop space was temporarily unusable due to leak repairs; the holder disputes this as force majeure.
