Summary

BSO Prinsjeshof in Venlo provides after-school care (BSO) for up to 59 children aged 4-13. The inspection on 12 August 2025 concluded that the location meets all statutory quality requirements after one minor adjustment. The children experience a safe and familiar environment thanks to consistent staff, clear rules, and activities tailored to their interests. The pedagogical policy was initially incomplete: the staff-to-child ratio was missing. The provider supplemented this immediately, after which the report was concluded positively. No violations or safety risks were identified. The municipality is advised not to take enforcement measures.
