Summary
On 30 April 2026, GGD Hart voor Brabant conducted a registration inspection at childminder/host parent care (gastouderopvang) Kokx van Esch in Vught. The childminder, Melissa van Esch, provides after-school care (BSO) on Mondays for two children aged 5 and almost 4 years at the parents' home. This was an abbreviated inspection because the childminder is already registered in the LRK for other host families. The childminder is placed through ViaViela Den Bosch. All assessed components (registration, requirements for the childminder, accommodation and layout, safety and health) meet statutory requirements. No violations or areas for improvement were identified.
