STH Het Eendennest Trompstraat

Strengths

• Pedagogical practice meets all four basic objectives: emotional safety, personal competence, social competence, and norms and values
• Staff members communicate sensitively and responsively with children
• Good language stimulation through reading aloud, songs, gestures, and naming objects
• Early childhood education (voorschoolse educatie/VE) with the Pyramid programme is well developed and evaluated
• Sufficient qualified staff with the correct VE training and language proficiency level 3F
• Safety and health policy is up to date and adhered to

Violations

• Information: the provider had not placed a link to the National Childcare Register (Landelijk Register Kinderopvang/LRK) with a reference to inspection reports on its own website, making it difficult for parents to find inspection reports (Article 1.54(2) and (3) of the Childcare Act)

Summary

The Municipal Health Service (GGD) inspection report of 13 November 2025 concerns STH Het Eendennest Trompstraat in Zoetermeer, a play-language house (speeltaalhuis) daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) for children aged 2–4 with early childhood education (voorschoolse educatie/VE). The location, opened on 1 September 2025, is part of gro-up Kinderopvang B.V. The inspection was the first investigation since opening. The pedagogical quality is assessed positively: staff provide emotional safety, stimulate language development, and work with the VE programme Pyramid. One violation was identified regarding information provision to parents: the provider had not placed a link to the LRK with inspection reports on the website. This was resolved following a recovery offer (herstelaanbod). The GGD advises no enforcement and agrees to the expansion from 15 to 16 childcare places.
