Summary

Daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) Prinsenark in Alphen aan den Rijn was inspected on 1 July 2026 by the Municipal Health Service (GGD) Hollands Midden. The location, part of Stichting SHEZAF, offers 41 places for children aged 0-4 years in three core groups and provides subsidised pre-school education. The annual inspection showed that the location meets all assessed quality requirements in the areas of pedagogical climate, staff and groups, and safety and health.

The pre-school education with the Uk & Puk programme meets all requirements, including a training plan and deployment of a pedagogical policy officer.

Safety protocols are correctly adhered to and there is always someone with first aid present.
