About this care
Kinderdagverblijf Madelief is situated on the quiet grounds of farmstead De Borne, behind the Warkense Molen on the edge of Warnsveld. In this rich natural setting we provide childcare for children aged 0 to 4 years. We are open from 7:00 AM to 6:30 PM, all year round (except public holidays and weekends).
Everything we do centres on safety, tranquillity and space in nature. Children can learn through play and develop at their own pace. We stimulate the learning process based on your child’s interests. Our groups are small-scale and homely, ensuring every child receives the personal attention they deserve.
We operate two toddler groups and one baby group; from January 2026 we will expand to two baby groups. Our qualified and enthusiastic staff are ready to give your child a warm home-from-home. In our discovery garden and vegetable patch children can taste fruit and vegetables themselves and learn where food comes from.
For meals we consciously choose organic vegetables, fruit and other healthy products. We serve bread meals and varied snacks. Bottle feeding and bottles are taken care of by us, as are daily care products. Each child has their own cot in a quiet bedroom.
Both regular and extra childcare are possible; half-days can also be booked. Feel free to drop by for a tour and experience the warm, homely atmosphere of Kinderdagverblijf Madelief yourself.Read more

Summary
KDV Madelief B.V. in Almen, a daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) with 56 places for children aged 1 to 4, was inspected on 17 March 2026 by the Municipal Health Service (GGD) Noord- en Oost-Gelderland. The location consists of four core groups and provides care on weekdays from 7:00 to 18:30. Overall, the location meets legal requirements, with the exception of the safety and health domain. The pedagogical climate, staff and groups, and accommodation do comply. A recovery offer was issued for shortcomings in the safety and health policy, including an insufficiently concrete action plan, accessibility of the policy for employees and parents, and failure to act in accordance with policy during high CO₂ levels. The location successfully utilised the recovery offer; at the second visit on 21 May 2026, the deficiencies had been resolved. The GGD advises no enforcement action.
