Summary

The Municipal Health Service (GGD) inspection report dated 19 March 2026 for daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) Road2School on Swindenstraat in Den Haag presents a mixed picture. The location provides care for up to 28 children (ages 0–4) and works with preschool education. The pedagogical practice is strong: children feel emotionally safe and staff tailor their guidance well to children's development. The accommodation and safety procedures are satisfactory. However, five violations were identified in the areas of pedagogical policy, preschool education, training requirements, deployment of staff in training, and stability of care. Three violations were resolved through a recovery offer. One violation (IKK language requirement) was addressed immediately. The preschool education (VE) training plan is not yet fully in order. The GGD advises enforcement.
