At Korelon you are not a number, but a person! We strive to ensure your child can stay with the same childminder (gastouder) for as long as possible, preferably for all the years that care is needed. We offer Christian childminders who are themselves Christian and live this out in their lives. Our staff are trained and can answer your questions, and we even have our own orthopedagogist for parenting questions and a health coach who advises on exercise and healthy nutrition. We have made BASIS agreements to ensure relationships remain good, with agreements about payment, illness, changes in care and house rules. Financially everything is well arranged with an online hours registration system, fixed direct debit dates and collective insurance.

Korelon is a national childminder agency (gastouderbureau) active in multiple provinces in the Netherlands. We offer childminder care (gastouderopvang) in Gelderland, Noord-Brabant, Overijssel, Utrecht, Zeeland and Zuid-Holland. Parents can search for available childminders (gastouders) in their region via our website by selecting province or postcode. We have a large network of Christian childminders spread across these provinces.

Korelon meets all legal requirements for childminder agencies (gastouderbureaus) and is inspected annually by the GGD (Municipal Health Service). We are affiliated with the Branchevereniging Kinderopvang (Childcare Industry Association) and the Geschillencommissie Kinderopvang en Peuterspeelzalen (Childcare and Preschool Disputes Committee). We have an internal complaints procedure and parents can submit complaints to the Disputes Committee. Our childminders (gastouders) are thoroughly screened with VOG (Certificate of Conduct) checks, diploma verification, first aid certification and risk assessments of care locations. We offer free accident insurance for childminders and guest children during care hours.

Childminder care (gastouderopvang) at Hoppas is 'your second home' — personal childcare in a homely atmosphere with the same, familiar face every day. This small-scale care offers flexibility in hours and is often available close to home. Children enjoy playing and discovering together in a small group of maximum 6 children.

Our childminders (gastouders) are flexible and provide bespoke care tailored to your needs. The childminder agency (gastouderbureau) handles the administrative matters and supports both childminders and parents. For care from 20 hours per week, childminder care is generally more affordable than a daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV).

Hoppas childminder care (gastouderopvang) operates in the Land van Heusden and Altena region. We are the largest childminder agency in Altena and have childminders spread across various locations in the region. Almost always there is a childminder available nearby, enabling flexible and local childcare.

Hoppas safeguards quality through active supervision and regular inspections. Our childminders (gastouders) are guided by the placement agency and regularly inspected by the Municipal Health Service (GGD). All childminders work according to policy plans, protocols and in safe, approved environments.

As an active childminder agency, we maintain constant contact with our childminders and regularly visit them during care hours. All family members over 17 who may be present during care are screened through a Certificate of Good Conduct (VOG). Homes are inspected through Risk Assessment to meet safety requirements.
