Summary

The Municipal Health Service (GGD) inspection on 24 January 2025 at childminder Korf van den Berg in Urk shows a predominantly positive picture. The childminder provides responsible care for two children (0-4 years) on flexible days at the parents' home. She has been registered with childminder agency (GOB) De Bult since January 2024. The pedagogical practice is good: children show wellbeing, the childminder is attentive and provides emotional safety. She holds the required diplomas, a valid first aid certificate, and is registered in the PRK. The accommodation is satisfactory, with sufficient play space and a safe garden. Two points for improvement were identified in the risk assessment: agreements on the slide are missing, and stair gates are mentioned but not present. Both must be adjusted. There is no recovery offer or violations. The advice to the municipality is: no enforcement action.
