Spelendwijs Veenendaal

Strengths

• The premises comfortably exceed requirements (99.1 m² indoor, 140 m² outdoor)
• All staff correctly registered in the Childcare Personnel Register (Personenregister Kinderopvang)
• Complaints procedure in place and affiliated with the Childcare Disputes Committee (Geschillencommissie Kinderopvang)
• The operator constructively cooperated in providing missing documentation

Shortcomings

• The pedagogical policy plan needed to be elaborated more concretely for multiple aspects of responsible childcare
• The safety and health policy needed to be supplemented with a description of how parents can access and review it

Summary

This Municipal Health Service (GGD) inspection report dated 17 August 2026 concerns Spelendwijs Veenendaal, a daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) located at Spanjaardsgoed 7 in Veenendaal. The inspection was conducted for registration purposes following a relocation from Doctor Colijnstraat 70. The location accommodates a maximum of 27 children across two core groups for children aged 0 to 4 years. The overall conclusion is that the location complies with legislation and regulations, with the exception of two domains that were assessed as 'compliant after opportunity for supplementation': pedagogical climate and safety and health. In both areas, concrete descriptions were missing from the policy, which the operator subsequently submitted. The premises, staff registration, and parental rights fully comply. The recommendation to the municipality is positive: include the location in the National Childcare Register (Landelijk Register Kinderopvang/LRK).
