Summary

The annual inspection on 21 September 2026 at after-school care (BSO) Switchkids in Boxtel shows a location that meets all assessed quality requirements. The after-school care (buitenschoolse opvang/BSO), part of Kindercentrum Kindertuin Projecten B.V., accommodates a maximum of 18 children aged 4 to 13. The pedagogical staff offer a varied and challenging range of activities that caters to diverse interests, as demonstrated by the observation where children took apart an old coffee machine while others played football outside. All assessed areas — pedagogical policy, personnel register, domestic violence and child abuse reporting code, parent committee, and complaints handling — score sufficiently. No areas for improvement or violations were identified. The Municipal Health Service (GGD) advises no enforcement action.
