Childminder agency Kiddie Care offers homely, small-scale, trusted, and flexible care for your child. As a parent, you receive personal guidance in finding a suitable childminder (gastouder) who meets all legal requirements, including an MBO-2 diploma, first aid certificate, and Certificate of Good Conduct (VOG). The agency mediates for both care at the childminder's home and care at your own home.

You are entitled to childcare benefit (kinderopvangtoeslag) because Kiddie Care provides recognised childcare under the Childcare Act. The agency is known for its involvement with families, quality guidance of both childminders and parent clients, and clear fee structure without recurring annual placement costs. In case of illness or holiday of your childminder, the agency has an obligation to make every effort to find replacement care.

Childminder agency Kiddie Care is active in the Hoeksche Waard, Drechtsteden, and Goeree-Overflakkee regions. The agency mediates for childminder care (gastouderopvang) in these areas, for both care at the childminder's home and care at the parent clients' homes. Parents from these regions can turn to Kiddie Care for personal placement with suitable childminders in their area.

GOB Kiddie Care meets all legal requirements of the Childcare Act and is registered in the National Childcare Register under LRK number 144504509. The agency holds KNGO certification, which means the owner continuously invests in further training and quality improvement. All childminders are thoroughly screened and must meet strict selection criteria: at minimum an MBO-2 diploma in Care & Welfare Assistance, valid first aid diploma, Certificate of Good Conduct (VOG) for themselves and adult household members, and registration in the Childcare Persons Register.

The agency conducts annual GGD (Municipal Health Service) inspections and submits care data to the Tax Authority. There has been an active parent committee since 2009 that represents parents' interests and advises on quality. Inspection reports are publicly available on the website, as are an internal complaints procedure and privacy statement.
