About this care
De Stephan Rakkers is a small-scale daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) in Scheveningen, located at Stevinstraat 226. This location is a VVE location (Early Childhood Education) and provides care for children from 1 to 4 years old in a horizontal core group of up to 16 children. The center is open from 07:30 to 19:00.
At De Stephan Rakkers, a homely, warm atmosphere is central. The children play outside daily in the enclosed garden and regularly go on discovery trips with pushcarts to the dunes, the beach, and the forest. Healthy hot meals are provided, both at lunch and dinner, at no extra cost.
Each child has a fixed mentor who follows their development through observations. Parents are involved through daily handovers, annual 10-minute meetings, and parent activities. Pedagogical staff work from four educational goals: emotional security, personal development, social development, and the transmission of values and norms.Read more

Summary
The Municipal Health Service (GGD) annual inspection of 22 July 2025 at daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) Stephanrakkers in 's-Gravenhage shows a predominantly positive picture with two violations that were resolved through a recovery offer. The location provides care for a maximum of 16 children aged 2 to 4 years. The pedagogical practice is satisfactory: children are greeted warmly, approached individually, and playfully stimulated in their development. Two violations were identified: the pedagogical policy plan lacked a description of mentorship and tasks of staff in training, and the coaching plan for pedagogical policy staff was non-compliant because the hour calculation was based on four instead of five locations and the distribution of coaching hours was unclear. Both violations were resolved within the set deadline. Safety, staff qualifications, and staff-child ratios comply with the law.
