Summary

This inspection report concerns a registration investigation for childminder/host parent care (gastouderopvang) Snoei Berkhout in Bergambacht, affiliated with childminder agency (gastouderbureau) ViaViela Gouda. The inspection took place on 10 July 2026. The childminder provides care on Tuesdays and Thursdays for up to three host children aged 0-4 years in her detached home. All assessed quality requirements were rated as sufficient. There was one shortcoming in the pedagogical work plan: the description of how the child's development is monitored was missing. After a recovery offer, this was supplemented and approved. The location is safely arranged with appropriate play and sleeping areas, an enclosed garden and adequate safety measures such as stair gates and a locked entrance door. The childminder holds valid diplomas, a Certificate of Conduct (VOG) and a valid first aid certificate. The advice is to include the facility in the National Childcare Register (Landelijk Register Kinderopvang).
