About this care

AI
Welcome to SKSG Kameleon, our small-scale daycare centre located at Onnemaheerd 6-1 in the green Beijum district. Housed in the modern “Het Knikdak” building, we offer a warm, home-like environment on one vertical group for up to 14 children aged 0–4. The bright, spacious playroom is furnished with natural materials that invite curiosity and play. Adjacent is a sunny, fenced garden where children can run freely, build sandcastles and explore nature. Our pedagogical approach is child-centred and rhythm-based. A predictable daily routine alternates quiet moments with active play. Eating, sleeping, playing and discovering all unfold at a gentle pace that respects each child’s individual needs. Story time is a daily ritual: we gather on the sofa to share picture books that foster language development. We also work extensively with natural materials—sand, water, leaves and branches—so children learn about the world around them through hands-on play. Safety and trust are paramount. Our experienced pedagogical staff provide personal attention and guide every child’s development. A separate sleep room allows babies to rest undisturbed while toddlers and pre-schoolers continue playing. Bottle feeding is provided for the youngest according to their home schedule; older children enjoy healthy bread meals and nutritious snacks. We accommodate food allergies and parental preferences. SKSG Kameleon has been registered in the National Childcare Register since 1 January 2021 and operates under Stichting Kinderopvang Stad Groningen. We are closely connected to the neighbourhood: regular walks take us to the nearby park or playground. Parents are warmly invited to join us for reading, crafting or celebrating birthdays—with healthy treats, of course. Together we create a place where your child feels safe, seen and inspired to grow.

GGD Inspection

Violations

Inspection date: May 28, 2026

5
Strengths
3
Shortcomings
3
Violations
Insufficient compliance with quality requirements in three important areas: staff qualifications, stability of care, and safety/health (first aid).

Strengths

  • Pedagogical policy and practice meet legal requirements
  • Responsible daycare with attention to emotional safety and development
  • Parent committee is adequately established
  • Staff-child ratio is sufficient
  • All staff members hold valid Certificate of Conduct (VOG) declarations and are registered with the license holder

Shortcomings

  • Structural solution for sick leave replacement of permanent staff
  • Reducing staff turnover and use of temporary substitutes
  • Safeguarding children's emotional safety through greater continuity of care

Violations

  • Not all staff members hold the mandatory baby/toddler qualification (15 April 2026: unqualified staff member scheduled with a 6-month-old baby and an 11-month-old child)
  • Stability of care not guaranteed: no consistent familiar face present at multiple times (20 March, 22 May, 29 May 2026)
  • Not at all times an adult present who is qualified in first aid for children (multiple dates in March, April and May 2026, including full days)

Summary

The annual inspection of 28 May 2026 at daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) SKSG Kam eleon in Groningen presents a mixed picture. The pedagogical quality and parent committee meet the requirements, but there are serious shortcomings regarding staff qualifications, stability of care, and first aid availability. One permanent staff member has been on sick leave since early 2026, resulting in frequent use of temporary substitutes. This has caused unrest among children and parents. The Municipal Health Service (GGD) advises enforcement action.
