Shortcomings
- The safe sleeping checklist for the baby group is not being kept up to date sufficiently

- No parent committee has been established despite more than 50 registered children
Summary
The annual inspection on 5 February 2026 at daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) Basker - Goudsbloemweg in Almere shows a mixed picture. The location provides care for 90 children in six core groups. The pedagogical climate, safety and health policy, accommodation and complaints handling meet the requirements. There is a relaxed atmosphere and staff demonstrate sensitive responsiveness. However, a violation was identified in the Staff and Groups domain: one staff member did not meet the required infant care training, causing the staff-child ratio (BKR) to not be met. The operator took immediate action; the employee was enrolled in training and has since successfully completed it. In addition, a parent committee is missing despite more than 50 registered children, but the operator has made sufficient efforts to establish one and has involved parents in other ways.
