Summary

The Municipal Health Service (GGD) Dienst Gezondheid en Jeugd conducted a registration inspection on 7 May 2026 at childminder/host parent care (gastouderopvang) Meijwaard Verloop in Sliedrecht. The host parent will offer flexible care for up to 6 children in her own home, placed through ViaViela Gorinchem. The conclusion is that the provision is expected to reasonably meet the quality requirements under the Childcare Act. No violations or areas for improvement were identified. The host parent is well prepared: she holds valid Certificates of Good Conduct (VOG's), correct diplomas, an up-to-date risk assessment, and has implemented safety measures such as smoke detectors, socket covers and child locks on windows and kitchen cabinets. She is familiar with the pedagogical policy, the child abuse reporting code, and the new legislative changes effective 1 July 2026. The advice to the municipality of Sliedrecht is to include the location in the national childcare register.
