Summary

This inspection report concerns a registration investigation for childminder care (gastouderopvang) Urgert in 's-Gravenhage, conducted by GGD Haaglanden. The childminder provides care in the family home of the requesting parents for a maximum of 6 children. The inspection took place without children present. The childminder meets all legal quality requirements, including registration, pedagogical quality, professional competence, accommodation, and safety. One specific point of attention was noted: the house was built before 1960, and lead pipes may be present. The inspector alerted the childminder to this due to an upcoming ban on lead pipes in childcare locations. The childminder is responsible for taking appropriate measures if necessary. No areas for improvement or violations were identified.
