Gastouderland Groningen offers parents personal guidance in finding the right childminder (gastouder). Your consultant Marion Kassenberg actively searches for a childminder who matches your wishes and situation. The agency charges no registration fees and the placement is entirely without obligation. You can meet with multiple childminders until you find the perfect match.

All childminders are registered in the National Childcare Register, which means you are entitled to childcare benefit (kinderopvangtoeslag). The agency handles the administrative processing, makes quick payments to childminders within two working days, and offers support through a financial and pedagogical helpdesk.

Gastouderland Groningen is active in the Groningen region and surrounding areas. The agency has childminders spread across various locations in the province of Groningen and adjacent areas. Consultant Marion Kassenberg is the permanent contact person for this region and lives in Norg herself.

Gastouderland Groningen is a registered childminder agency (gastouderbureau) under the Childcare Act.

The agency has an internal and external complaints procedure and is a member of the Disputes Committee. Pedagogical policy and protocols are publicly available via the documents page. GGD inspection reports can be viewed online via the National Childcare Register.

SKID Kinderopvang provides childminder (gastouder) care for children from 0 to 13 years old in North Drenthe and South Groningen. Our childminders offer small-scale care in a homely atmosphere with personal attention for every child. Childminder care is a flexible form of childcare where care days and times are arranged in consultation with the childminder. It is also possible to request childminder care at your own home, where the childminder comes to your house.

We strive for the highest possible quality of childminder care. Our childminders not only meet the legal requirements but also continue to develop themselves as professionals. All childminders are registered in the National Childcare Register (LRK), which allows you to apply for childcare benefit (kinderopvangtoeslag) with the Tax and Customs Administration.

Our childminders are spread across North Drenthe and South Groningen. We offer childminder care in various places in this region, including Annen, Assen, Eelde, Eelderwolde, Gasselternijveen, Gieten, Paterswolde, Vries, Westlaren, Zuidlaren, Hoogkerk, Gasselte, and Tynaarlo. Not all childminders are listed on the website, so please feel free to contact our childminder agency if you are looking for care in another place in this region.

Our childminders are all registered in the National Childcare Register (LRK) and have a unique LRK number that is required for applying for childcare benefit. The Municipal Health Service (GGD) inspects the childminder agency annually and visits all childminders at their start, after which they are inspected on a random basis. The inspection reports are publicly available in the National Childcare Register.

We maintain strict quality requirements: all childminders and their adult household members must be able to provide a Certificate of Conduct (VOG), must have completed a child-focused training, and must hold a paediatric first aid certificate. We carry out annual risk assessments in the childminder's home and organise mandatory refresher courses in paediatric first aid.
