About this care
BSO Vlinder is located in the community building adjacent to De Vlinder primary school at Bloesemtuin 17a in Houten. We provide small-scale after-school care specifically for children from De Vlinder. Our after-school care space is cozily and homely furnished with various materials and opportunities for activities. There is an extensive selection of construction materials, board games, and craft and technical materials. We have a building and household corner and a chill corner where children can relax with, for example, a book.
We offer a challenging activity program that is tailored to the spaces and materials. For drama activities, there is a beautiful theater wardrobe where children can fully dress up. In the kitchen, various cooking activities are offered, and in the playroom and outdoors, there is plenty of space for movement activities.
At BSO Vlinder, we work according to the Pedagogical Heart of Kind&co ludens. We believe it is important that children feel comfortable and have fun, as this creates space for development. We give children confidence and space to discover and be curious. We provide an inspiring and challenging environment where play is discovery and learning. Our care is a mini-society where we have an eye for each other and the world around us.Read more
GGD Inspection
Improvements needed
Inspection date: June 24, 2025
Strengths
- Pedagogical policy is implemented well
- All staff correctly registered and certified

- First aid certificates on file
- Domestic violence reporting protocol known and used
- Parents well informed through website and newsletters
Shortcomings
- Involve parents more closely in policy changes, such as changes to the anti-bullying policy
Summary
BSO Vlinder in Houten provides after-school care (BSO) for up to 30 children across two groups. The inspection took place on 24 June 2025. The pedagogical climate, personnel policy, and safety provisions meet statutory requirements. There is a comprehensive safety and health policy, staff hold valid first aid certificates, and the domestic violence reporting protocol is in order. Parents are kept well informed through the website and newsletters. However, there is one area for improvement: parents were insufficiently involved in a recent change to the anti-bullying policy. There is no parent committee, which is permitted given the small number of places, but the alternative parent consultation was not carried out properly. No violations were identified. The provider has announced measures to improve parent involvement in future policy changes. The municipality is advised to enforce in accordance with policy.
