About this childminding agency
Childminder agency (gastouderbureau) Samen CreaCtief is a registered childminder agency that has been active in the Rucphen region since 2007. We offer small-scale childminder care (gastouderopvang) for children from 6 weeks to 13 years in a homely environment. As an agency, we carefully match parents with childminders (gastouders), with personal attention and good matching at the heart of our approach. Our childminders are regularly visited and supervised, and meet all legal requirements such as GGD inspections, VOG (Certificate of Good Conduct) declarations and first aid certificates. We exclusively work with professional childminders who have at least an MBO diploma in Helping Care and Welfare. Parents can count on us for a dedicated placement coordinator, flexible care options and support with applying for childcare benefit (kinderopvangtoeslag).

For parents
Gastouderbureau Samen CreaCtief offers your child a second home in a safe environment. We select childminders (gastouders) who meet your wishes and criteria, and who are communicatively skilled and deal with parent and child with integrity. Childminder care (gastouderopvang) is small-scale professional childcare in a homely atmosphere, often more attractive than a daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) or after-school care (BSO) because of the individual and personal attention for the child. In addition, a childminder is often more affordable and flexible. You can choose the most suitable childminder yourself and always count on a fixed, trusted person who cares for your child.
Subsidy & costs
We support parents with the application for childcare benefit (kinderopvangtoeslag) by providing an annual overview with which you can apply for childcare benefit at the Tax and Customs Administration. On our website you will find the childcare benefit table for 2026 including employer contribution. For the application of childcare benefit you can go to www.toeslagen.nl. We also offer a trial calculation so you can see what you can save on your childcare costs.
The costs for childminder care (gastouderopvang) are often more favorable than at daycare centers (kinderdagverblijven) because you only pay for the hours you need and are not obliged to purchase 11 hours per day. We offer tailored financial solutions and you can save hundreds of euros. On our rates page you will find documents with organizational costs, an explanation of the rates, and the childcare benefit table for 2026. We also offer a trial calculation so you can request a quote and see what you can save on your childcare costs.
Trust & screening
Our screening process for childminders (gastouders) is thorough and meets all legal requirements. Childminders must at minimum have an MBO diploma in Care and Welfare Assistance, a Children's First Aid certificate (Oranje Kruis), and a Certificate of Good Conduct (VOG). Housemates aged 18 and older must also have a VOG. We carry out at least 2 home visits per year to childminders and check the care location for safety and hygiene. In addition, we hold annual performance reviews and evaluate the care with parents. Childminders are registered in the LRK and must work according to our protocols and guidelines.
Gastouderbureau Samen CreaCtief is a registered childminder bureau (gastouderbureau) in the National Childcare and Preschool Register (LRKP). Our childminders (gastouders) and the bureau are regularly inspected by the Municipal Health Service (GGD), and the inspection reports are public and available via our website or the register. All childminders have a Certificate of Good Conduct (VOG), as do their housemates over 18. In addition, childminders have a valid first aid certificate for children and work according to our protocols for safety, health, and the reporting code for domestic violence and child abuse.

Mission & vision
Gastouderbureau Samen CreaCtief strives to offer a caregiving situation that aligns with the home environment. We see it as our role to actively support the coordination between parents and childminder (gastouder). We do this by addressing various aspects of upbringing and care during intake, matching, and evaluation conversations, and by making the consequences of decisions clear. Our vision is focused on providing small-scale care where personal attention comes first, because we know the people we work with and people are not treated as a number.
Pedagogical vision
Our pedagogical vision is based on four core pedagogical goals: social competence, personal competence, safety, and values and norms. We find it important that childminders (gastouders) are aware of children's development and can stimulate this. Childminders work according to the pedagogical policy plan of Gastouderbureau Samen CreaCtief and the child abuse protocol. Children are our future, and we want to help them develop themselves in a safe and trusted environment.

Summary
Childminder agency (gastouderbureau) Sam en Creactief in St. Willebrord was inspected on 14 September 2026 by GGD West-Brabant. The small-scale agency places children with six childminders (gastouders) in the municipality of Rucphen. The inspection concerned an annual investigation involving document assessment, a site visit, and an interview with the licence holder. Overall, the agency complies well with statutory requirements. Two aspects initially gave rise to shortcomings, but these have been rectified following a recovery offer. The GGD therefore advises against enforcement action.
