About this care
BSO Emmelhage is a new, small-scale after-school care facility located at Kindcentrum Emmelhage, Theodoor Karel van Lohuizensingel 6A in Emmeloord. Since 6 May 2025 we provide care for up to 30 children aged 4 to 13. Initially we are open on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday; with sufficient registrations we will expand to Wednesday and Friday.
We are part of Stichting Aves Kinderopvang and work closely with the school teams within the integrated child centre. Our pedagogical staff and teachers form one close-knit team, giving children a familiar and safe continuous development line from primary school through to after-school care.
Our BSO is designed as a warm, homely place where children can relax, play and discover after school. We follow the pedagogical work plan “activities with hands, heart and head”. This means we challenge children to be creative, cooperate, move and follow their curiosity. We offer both indoor and outdoor activities, always tailored to the age and interests of the children.
For parents this means their children can go straight to a familiar environment after school without extra travel time. Registration is possible via the Aves Kinderopvang website. The location is registered in the National Childcare Register under number 144735556 and is supervised by the GGD Flevoland.Read more

Summary
BSO Emmelhage in Emmeloord was inspected unannounced on 23 September 2025. The after-school care (BSO) (30 places, ages 4-13) meets all statutory requirements. The pedagogical climate is experienced as positive: children are relaxed, may choose their activities, and are guided in a friendly manner. The safety and health policy is in order, as are staffing matters, space, and parent information. Three minor safety and hygiene improvement points were identified: missing refrigerator thermometer, missing finger guards at one door, and staff with nails not kept short. These were addressed immediately after the visit or included in an action plan. No violations. The Municipal Health Service (GGD) advises the municipality not to enforce.
