Summary

Voorschool Kleine Alan Turing is a daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) for up to 16 children aged 2 to 4 years in Amsterdam, part of Stichting Dynamo Voorscholen. At the annual inspection on 9 January 2026, all quality requirements were met. The pedagogical practice is good: children feel emotionally secure, are encouraged in their social skills, and receive responsible day care. The team of 3 staff members works together enthusiastically, although 2 employees are recently new. The preschool education programme (VVE-programma) Startblokken is offered 5 days per week (27.5 hours/week). One area for improvement was identified: the play materials are not always attractively presented and some corners are minimally furnished. The location is working on this and has budget for enrichment in the first quarter of 2026. No violations were established and no recovery offer (herstelaanbod) was required.
