Summary

Atalenta KDV Klepper in Luyksgestel is a toddler daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) for children aged 2 to 4 years, open on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday from 08:30 to 12:30 during school weeks. The childcare accommodates 16 children and uses the accredited Early Childhood Education (VE) program Startblokken, but is not VE-indicated. The location has been part of Atalenta, a merger organization with 29 primary schools and 23 childcare locations, since 1 January 2025. The annual inspection of 8 January 2026 shows that the location fully meets all quality requirements of the Childcare Act. No violations or areas for improvement were identified. The pedagogical practice scores well: staff work sensitively and responsively, encourage positive interactions and provide emotional safety through recognizable routines. All staff hold the correct qualifications, Certificate of Conduct (VOG) and language proficiency. The administration is complete and the reporting code for domestic violence has been adequately implemented. Because fewer than 50 children are cared for, a parent committee is not mandatory; parents are involved in other ways.
