About this care
BSO Hummelburg is a welcoming, small-scale after-school care centre located right in the heart of Blitterswijck. We share a building with St. Anna primary school, so children can stay in their familiar surroundings after class. We provide care for up to 23 children aged 4 to 13, all in one base group. This keeps everything personal and easy to oversee.
Our large outdoor space is a real asset: the playground includes a proper football field where children can run, play and let off steam. Indoors we follow the Spring Actief programme. Together with the children we design varied, exciting activities that match their interests—think sports and games, but also crafts, construction and imaginative play. We believe children learn best when they help decide what to do.
BSO Hummelburg is open after school on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays. During term time we are ready to welcome the children. In the holidays we team up with BSO Kwaak in Wanssum so parents can rely on continuous care. A steady team of professional pedagogical staff ensures every child feels safe and at home; there is always time for a chat, a game or a hug.
Feel free to drop by for a tour and a personal introduction. We would love to show you what a great place BSO Hummelburg is!Read more

Summary
BSO Hummelburg in Blitterswijck (Stichting Spring Kinderopvang) received an unannounced annual inspection visit on 9 October 2025.

All statutory quality requirements were met: the pedagogical policy is up to date and properly implemented, staff are well trained and sufficiently present (11 children / 2 group leaders), the safety and health policy is complete, and a qualified first-aider is always present. Strong points include the warm, sensitive interaction, emotional safety, involved mentor structure, and rich activities that stimulate social competencies.
