Summary

This inspection report concerns an investigation for registration of childminder/host parent care (gastouderopvang) with Ms. N. Damiri at Albert Verweystraat 10 in Gorinchem, placed through childminder agency Bibaloe. The inspection took place on 22 January 2026. The provision broadly meets the quality requirements of the Childcare Act. The childminder is well informed about the pedagogical policy, has an up-to-date risk assessment, and has taken appropriate safety measures. Two points of attention were identified regarding the reporting code and mandatory reporting obligation: during the inspection visit, the childminder did not fully know what steps to take in cases of suspected domestic violence or child abuse, and did not know how to contact the confidential inspector or when to file a report. She looked up and documented this information during the visit. No recovery offer was made. The advice to the municipality is to include the provision in the national childcare register.
