Summary

Kinderopvang Het Droompaleisje in Vlaardingen provides daycare for 32 children (ages 0–4) across two groups. The Municipal Health Service (GGD) inspection of 11 June 2025 shows that the location meets all assessed quality requirements. The pedagogical policy is in place and being implemented correctly: children experience emotional safety, develop through play, and learn social skills. All staff members hold a Certificate of Conduct (Verklaring Omtrent het Gedrag/VOG) and are registered in the Childcare Personnel Register (Personenregister Kinderopvang). Staff-to-child ratios are in order; one employee in the baby group is still completing the mandatory infant care training but may work under the supervision of a qualified colleague. The safety and health policy is up to date and being followed; the previously noted absence of laminate flooring in the kitchen area has since been remedied. No violations or areas for improvement were identified. The municipality of Vlaardingen is advised not to pursue enforcement action.
