Summary

The Municipal Health Service (GGD) inspected the new childminder/host parent care (gastouderopvang) of Franka Ponssen van Willigen at De Rietput 115 in Vuren on 17 December 2024. The location is mediated by childminder agency Bibalou and provides daycare and after-school care (BSO) for a maximum of 6 children. The inspection comprised document review, a site visit and an interview with the childminder. The pedagogical practice was not assessed as the childcare had not yet commenced. The childminder and location comply with all statutory requirements for registration in the National Childcare Register. There was one point of attention: the presence of the cat was described differently in the risk assessment than in reality. This was discussed and amended. No violations were identified and no recovery offer was made.
