The childminders work according to the Pedagogical Heart of Kind&co ludens and are supported by fixed contact persons from the agency. Parents can easily contact the childminder for personal handovers and can discuss changing times and days by arrangement. The agency mediates between parents and childminders and remains involved throughout the entire care period.
