Summary

The annual inspection on 27 March 2026 at daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) 't Speelruim in Alphen aan den Rijn presents a predominantly positive picture. The location, part of Stichting SHEZAF, provides care for 12 children aged 2 to 4 years. The pedagogical climate and safety and health standards meet all requirements. The pedagogical practice is characterised by emotional security, clear rules, and positive guidance. However, a violation was identified regarding personnel and groups: a board member did not hold a VOG (Certificate of Good Conduct) with the correct function aspects. Although the registration has since been corrected, the requested improvement to the work process was not carried out in time, meaning the recovery offer has not been fully satisfied.
