For parents
At Junis Gastouderbureau, you will find personal childcare in a homely atmosphere. Our childminders (gastouders) care for children in their own homes, providing a familiar and warm environment. You have direct contact with your childminder and share observations about your child's development together. Our placement coordinators are happy to help find the best match between your wishes and a suitable childminder in your neighbourhood.
Subsidy & costs
Childminder care via Junis falls under the Childcare Act (Wet Kinderopvang), which means parents are entitled to childcare benefit (kinderopvangtoeslag) from the Tax and Customs Administration (Belastingdienst). The amount of the benefit depends on your income and the number of childcare hours. Our placement coordinators can inform you about the possibilities and help calculate your net costs.
The costs for childminder care vary per childminder and depend on the number of days and hours of care you use. Childminders work as self-employed professionals and set their own hourly rate. Junis provides a rate table with current prices that you can download. There are no additional costs to Junis on top of the hourly rate. Parents can apply for childcare benefit (kinderopvangtoeslag) from the Tax and Customs Administration.
Trust & screening
All childminders at Junis are certified and meet strict requirements. They hold a recognised diploma for childminder care, a valid paediatric first aid certificate, a Certificate of Conduct (Verklaring Omtrent Gedrag/VOG), and valid identification. In addition, they have a safe childcare environment with a stair gate, sleeping place for children, and an enclosed outdoor space. Our placement coordinators maintain regular contact and provide guidance and training.
Our childminder agency and all our childminders are registered in the National Childcare Register (Landelijk Register Kinderopvang/LRK). This means we meet all legal requirements for childcare. Parents can check the registration details via the LRK portal. We work according to the Childminder Care Regulations (Reglement Gastouderopvang) and comply with the Childcare Act (Wet Kinderopvang), which entitles you to childcare benefit (kinderopvangtoeslag).

Mission & vision
Junis is a social childcare organisation that believes children thrive in an environment where they feel safe and seen. Connection is at the heart of our vision: with others, with ourselves, and with the world around us. We are here for all children aged 0-13 in the region, including children who are not (yet) with Junis.
Pedagogical vision
Our pedagogical vision revolves around connection and personal development. We use the ZoZien methodology to follow each child's individual development and build upon it. Our core values are security and safety, respect for every child as a unique individual, and room to develop at their own pace. We believe children need both space and structure to develop in a safe environment.

Summary
On 4 September 2026, GGD Hollands Midden conducted an announced follow-up investigation at childminder agency (gastouderbureau/GOB) Junis Kinderopvang in Alphen aan den Rijn. This investigation followed two shortcomings identified during the annual inspection of 12 November 2025: failure to report changes to the municipality in a timely manner and incomplete linkages in the Childcare Persons Register (Personenregister Kinderopvang/PRK). The municipality issued an instruction on 29 July 2026. This follow-up investigation found that the provider now complies with both requirements. Working methods, checklists and periodic checks have been implemented. A PRK verification showed that all childminders/host parents (gastouders) and household members were correctly registered and linked, with one exception who was already in an exit procedure. No violations were identified.
