Summary

Peuterleerplek Kleine Bear in 's-Gravenhage, part of Stichting JongLeren, was inspected on 3 February 2026 by GGD Haaglanden. The subsidised daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) provides early childhood education to 48 children aged 2.5 to 4 years, divided over 4 groups. The inspection found a warm pedagogical climate with engaged staff who guide children individually. One violation was identified in the domain of early childhood education: the training plan was missing mandatory components on monitoring child development, parental involvement and the continuous learning pathway to primary school. The holder made use of a recovery offer and submitted a complete plan on 2 March 2026. All other examined domains were compliant: pedagogical policy, staff and groups, safety and health. The advice to the municipality is: no enforcement.
