At Gastouderbureau Het Liefbeestje, we believe the child always comes first. We offer small-scale childminder care (gastouderopvang) in a homely atmosphere, where your child receives personal attention and becomes part of the childminder's family. Childminder care is often more flexible than other forms of childcare and can offer tailored solutions for parents with irregular working hours or changing schedules.

We ensure our childminders are qualified and registered, so you are entitled to childcare benefit (kinderopvangtoeslag). Your parenting preferences can be discussed with the childminder, and the same routine as at home can be maintained. Our childminders are inspected by the Municipal Health Service (GGD) at least once every 2 years and receive continuous guidance and training from our agency.

Gastouderbureau Het Liefbeestje is active in various parts of the Netherlands. We provide services for childminders and parents regarding small-scale childcare in, among others, the following regions: Central and West Brabant, Southeast Brabant, North Limburg, Central Limburg, South Limburg, Drechtsteden, Gouda and surroundings, South Holland and Utrecht.

Our placement coordinators work per region, so you always have a fixed contact person who knows the local situation and possibilities. We have offices in Weert (head office), South-East Brabant, North Limburg, Maastricht, Rijen and surroundings, Helmond and surroundings, Cuijk and surroundings and Drechtsteden.

We meet all legal quality requirements for childcare and are inspected by the Municipal Health Service (GGD). Our childminders are registered in the National Childcare Register (LRK) and hold a Certificate of Conduct (VOG). They are registered in the Childcare Personnel Register (PRK) and possess the required diploma and first aid certificate.

We are affiliated with the Childcare Disputes Committee and have obtained the 'Dispute-Free' certificate for all our locations. We are inspected annually by the GGD on our working methods and procedures. Our inspection reports are publicly available on our website. We have a pedagogical policy plan and a complaints procedure in accordance with legal requirements.

At Gastouderbureau Het Liefbeestje, we value personal contact. We work with dedicated placement staff per region, so you always have the same contact person who knows your situation.

Through our agency, you are entitled to childcare benefit (kinderopvangtoeslag) and receive a well-trained and supervised childminder (gastouder).
