ViaViela region Sittard helps parents find a suitable childminder (gastouder) in a homely environment. The agency listens to your specific wishes and puts you in touch with professional childminders in your neighbourhood. With experience since 2007 and as parents themselves, Marion and Etiënne Devens know what good childminder care should provide. The 'click' between parent and childminder is central to the matching process.

ViaViela region Sittard serves an extensive area in South Limburg, particularly the municipalities around Sittard, Heerlen, Kerkrade and Echt. The agency has childminders available in more than 60 places in the region, from Amstenrade to Voerendaal. Parents from this region can count on a fixed contact person nearby.

At Gastouderbureau Het Liefbeestje, we value personal contact. You will be assigned a dedicated placement coordinator who knows your situation and guides you in finding a suitable childminder (gastouder). We support you with all practical matters such as applying for childcare benefit (kinderopvangtoeslag), drawing up contracts, and resolving any questions or issues. Our childminders offer small-scale childcare in a homely atmosphere, so your child receives plenty of personal attention and feels safe and secure.
