About this childminding agency
Childminder agency Flex West-Brabant is a franchise business of Kind&co ludens that offers childminder care (gastouderopvang) in the North Brabant region. The agency mediates between parents and childminders (gastouders) and remains involved throughout the entire care period. Childminders (gastouders) provide small-scale care for up to six children at a time, ensuring each child receives plenty of individual attention. Care is available for children from 6 weeks old until they leave primary school, both at the childminder's (gastouder's) home and at the children's own home. All childminders (gastouders) are registered in the National Childcare Register (Landelijk Register Kinderopvang) and are certified with a paediatric first aid diploma.

Subsidy & costs
The childminder sets their own hourly rate for the care. No registration fee is charged. From the moment the care starts, you pay the Childminder Placement Bureau agency and guidance costs of €50.00 for daycare and €25.00 for after-school care (BSO) per child per month, regardless of the number of care hours. With a minimum number of care hours per week, the rate is negotiable.
Trust & screening
All childminders are registered in the National Childcare Register (LRK) and are certified with a paediatric first aid diploma. The childminder bureau maintains personal contact with the childminders and conducts regular home visits. The organisation has a complaints procedure and in 2025 received the Complaint-Free certificate from the Childcare Disputes Committee. A parent committee is active and all GGD inspection reports are publicly available.

Pedagogical vision
Kind&co ludens works from a pedagogical foundation they call 'Pedagogical Heart.' Children's wellbeing is central to this approach: children need to feel comfortable and have fun in order to develop. The pedagogical vision focuses on growing and discovering in a rich environment, where each child is allowed to develop at their own pace and discover their own talents. Cooperation and connection are important pillars: children learn in a mini-society how the world works and how they can interact with each other respectfully.
