Mission & vision
Betaal de Oppas strives to optimize childminder (gastouder) care by providing good, high-quality and affordable childcare. The agency attaches great value to the implementation and execution of pedagogical policy, whereby childminders make an essential contribution to the development and wellbeing of the children in their care.

Pedagogical vision
The pedagogical policy of Betaal de Oppas focuses on four core areas: safeguarding emotional security, the development of personal competencies, the development of social competencies, and the transfer of norms and values.

The policy is evaluated annually together with parents and childminders and adjusted based on their suggestions. During matching and intake, the pedagogical policy is discussed extensively, with attention paid to the attitude and expectations of the childminder, cooperation with parents, and the relationship between childminder and children.
