From this characteristic building, we provide professional childcare for children aged 0 to 4 years, offering our youngest ones a safe and familiar environment to grow and develop.

Summary
The annual Municipal Health Service (GGD) investigation at childcare center 't Molentje en Mallemolen in Thorn shows that the location meets the Childcare Act following a recovery offer. The location provides daycare and toddler groups with early childhood education for up to 30 children. Two shortcomings were identified that were resolved through a recovery offer: the lack of a concrete description of child information transfer to after-school care (BSO) in the pedagogical policy plan, and the lack of a description of the pedagogical policy staff member's role in early childhood education. Both points have since been resolved. Early childhood education is implemented using the Peuterplein method, with good parent involvement and sufficient hours. Staff hold the correct qualifications. Stability of care is ensured through permanent staff members and base schedules. Safety and health are in order, with a minor note regarding occasional temperature deviations in the refrigerator, which are being monitored.
