Summary

The annual inspection by GGD Twente of daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) Kleine Beer in Hengelo took place on 3 February 2026. The location forms an integrated child center together with an after-school care (BSO) facility and St. Jan primary school, offering places for 48 children in three home groups for ages 0-4. Overall, the location meets the quality requirements well. The pedagogical climate is assessed positively: staff demonstrate sensitive and responsive behaviour, a relaxed atmosphere prevails, and children are well stimulated in their development. Staff, groups, and accommodation also meet the requirements. However, a recovery offer was issued due to a violation regarding first aid: at certain times, no adult was present with a valid first aid certificate meeting legal requirements. The provider made use of the recovery offer and remedied the shortcoming within the deadline by scheduling certified employees for the relevant times.
