About this care
Flexikids at Walmolenstraat 17 in Almere is a small-scale daycare center for children aged 0 to 4 years. We provide care in two horizontal groups: a baby group for the youngest children and a toddler group for older children. This structure allows us to optimally follow and stimulate each child's development within a familiar environment.
Our location is designed as a homely place where children feel safe and secure. We work with fixed childcare professionals who provide a warm and stable environment every day. The groups are intentionally kept small, ensuring plenty of personal attention for each child.
We believe it's important that children can develop at their own pace. Therefore, we offer various play and learning corners that match the age and development of the children. From cuddle corners for babies to creative areas for toddlers, everything is designed to spark curiosity and develop skills.
At Flexikids, the connection between home and daycare is central. We work closely with parents and maintain daily contact about how the day went. Together we create a familiar foundation where children can develop optimally.Read more

Summary
The Municipal Health Service (GGD) inspection report dated 10 March 2026 concerns an unannounced incidental inspection at daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) Flexikids in Almere, following a report that a child briefly went missing during an outing. The inspection focused on safety and health policy, specifically procedures for outings and missing children. The location does not meet all requirements: staff members did not act in accordance with policy. There was no prior approval for the spontaneous outing, no risk assessment of the location was conducted, and the children were not wearing recognizable vests.
