Summary
GGD Flevoland inspected childminder/host parent care (gastouderopvang) Mensink in Nagele for registration. The host parent provides care for 3 school-age children at the requesting parent's address, 3 afternoons per week. Although the host parent has sufficient experience and the home is suitable, her pedagogical work plan was initially inadequate. Following a recovery offer, she revised this work plan and now meets all requirements. The inspector gives a positive recommendation for LRK registration.
