About this care
Welcome to Partou Daycare Plompetorengracht 12, located in a bright and characteristic building in the heart of Utrecht. We provide professional childcare for children aged 0 to 4 in a warm, home-like and secure environment. Our location has a maximum capacity of 45 children and operates with vertical groups, allowing babies and toddlers to play and learn together.
Our experienced pedagogical staff follow the VVE programme ‘Startblokken’ to support your child’s development. Daily activities include music, arts and crafts, reading and outdoor play in our own garden. We believe every child should feel safe and secure, which is why we work with familiar faces and a clear daily rhythm.
For our youngest children we provide separate sleeping areas, bottle feeding, nappy changes and rest moments tailored to their needs. Toddlers enjoy shared bread meals with fresh fruit and drinks. We accommodate allergies and dietary preferences such as vegetarian, lactose-free or gluten-free. Parents receive daily updates through our Partou app.
We value close cooperation with parents and welcome feedback. Our location is easily accessible, within walking distance of Utrecht Central Station. We offer flexible daycare days and half-day care is also possible. You are warmly invited for a tour or an informal introductory meeting.Read more

Summary
The Municipal Health Service (GGD) inspection report of 28 September 2026 concerns a follow-up investigation at daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) Partou KDV Plompetorengracht 12 in Utrecht (45 places, three groups). This follow-up investigation checked whether the location had remedied the shortcomings from the annual investigation of 22 June 2026. At that time, violations were identified regarding the safety and health policy: the two-adult rule (vierogenprincipe) was insufficiently described in concrete terms and was not always complied with (baby monitor use), bedroom temperatures were too high, and nappy/diaper hygiene (potjeshygiëne) was not always carried out according to agreements. During the annual investigation, the location received a recovery offer for one shortcoming and a formal instruction for two violations. During this follow-up investigation, it was established that all shortcomings have been remedied: the two-adult rule (vierogenprincipe) has been discussed and visibly posted, temperatures are now structurally registered and are at acceptable levels, and staff members are familiar with the agreements on nappy/diaper hygiene (potjeshygiëne).
