Summary

Partou KDV Borneokade 101 is a toddler daycare center (peuteropvang) in Amsterdam-Oost with 16 places for children aged 2–4. The inspection on 28 January 2025 shows that the location meets all statutory quality requirements. The pedagogical practice appears warm and predictable: children are greeted personally, parents receive ample attention during open play sessions, and the team works in a structured manner with themes and language stimulation. The early childhood education programme Uk & Puk is implemented well, the space is richly and linguistically designed, and the staff hold the correct diplomas and certificates. Parent involvement is active: annual conversations, daily handovers and newsletters. The transition to the Montessorischool takes place via a standard form; for children with additional needs there is a warm handover. No violations were identified. The only points for improvement are updating the parent information on the website (old opening days) and strengthening collaboration with the primary school outside of transition moments. The Municipal Health Service (GGD) advises the municipality to take note of the report for information purposes only.
