Les Petits Sparrenbos A

Strengths

• Pedagogical practice: staff guide children sensitively, communicate at eye level, and adapt language to the child's age
• Pedagogical policy is concrete and discussed in team meetings
• All staff hold appropriate qualifications
• Parent committee is involved in policy changes
• Outdoor play area is suitably equipped with sufficient play materials

Shortcomings

• The consistency of coaching by the pedagogical coach has decreased; hours accountability will be additionally assessed next year
• The early education (VE) policy still needs to be supplemented with a description of room layout and materials
• The substantive connection between pre-school and early education still needs to be described

Violations

• One staff member does not yet meet the 3F language requirement for early education (recovery planned: language tests on 10 and 17 August 2026, roster can be adjusted)
• The group room/layout does not yet meet the required standards for early education (recovery planned: materials ordered, layout to be completed during summer holiday)

Summary

GGD Kennemerland conducted an unannounced annual inspection on 8 June 2026 at daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) Les Petits Sparrenbos A in Bennebroek. The location provides care for 16 children aged 2 to 4 years, Monday to Friday mornings. The inspection paid particular attention to early education (VE) in connection with an upcoming merger with location Vogelnest. The pedagogical practice was assessed positively: staff communicate clearly, adapt their language to the children's age, and provide emotional security. There are two areas of non-compliance. One staff member does not yet meet the VE language requirement; they will take language tests on 10 and 17 August 2026. The group room does not yet meet VE standards; materials have been ordered and the layout will be adjusted during the summer holiday. The holder acknowledges both issues and has a recovery plan. The pedagogical coach has had minimal presence to date; the holder has committed to improving this. The advice to the municipality is: no enforcement, but do register with VE registration in the LRK.
