At GASTOU, we believe it's important that children keep the rhythm of home. Childminder care (gastouderopvang) feels very natural, with just one familiar face for children to focus on. They can happily do their own thing, together with other children in a safe, small group. There is plenty of room to do things together with the childminder (gastouder): crafting at the table, reading a book on the couch, or making music together. Just like at home, the household continues as normal, and we involve the children in that.
GASTOU is based in Barneveld and coordinates childminder care (gastouderopvang) in Central Netherlands. We work with childminders (gastouders) spread across various municipalities in the region. Our mediation staff are active regionally and know the local network well, enabling us to make suitable matches within your own area.
