Summary
GGD Flevoland conducted an unannounced annual inspection on 16 June 2026 at childminder/host parent care (gastouderopvang) Krom Okario in Lelystad. The childminder provides care for a maximum of 6 children (ages 0-4) through childminder agency ViaViela. Although the childminder's pedagogical practice and personal qualifications are sufficient, the childcare provision as a whole is assessed as inadequate. The childminder replaced the original childcare space (upstairs living room + terrace) with a converted garage, which does not meet the requirements for a living space. The outdoor space and risk assessment are also insufficient. The municipality of Lelystad is still investigating whether the garage may be used for childcare.
