Summary

KinderWORLD Almere, a daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) with 25 places in Almere, was inspected unannounced on 21 April 2026 by GGD Flevoland. The location meets legal requirements on most subjects, with a positive pedagogical climate and good accommodation. However, one violation was identified in the domain of Staff and Groups: a staff member who had been employed since 1 December 2025 had not been linked to the holder in the Childcare Personnel Register (PRK) in a timely manner. The link was remedied during the inspection, but this only occurred after work had commenced, which is not permitted. An overview also showed that another staff member who started on 3 October 2025 was only linked on 19 February 2026. The holder has announced measures to prevent recurrence, including a double-check by two employees.
