At Korelon you are not a number, but a person! We strive to ensure your child can stay with the same childminder (gastouder) for as long as possible, preferably for all the years that care is needed. We offer Christian childminders who are themselves Christian and live this out in their lives. Our staff are trained and can answer your questions, and we even have our own orthopedagogist for parenting questions and a health coach who advises on exercise and healthy nutrition. We have made BASIS agreements to ensure relationships remain good, with agreements about payment, illness, changes in care and house rules. Financially everything is well arranged with an online hours registration system, fixed direct debit dates and collective insurance.

Korelon is a national childminder agency (gastouderbureau) active in multiple provinces in the Netherlands. We offer childminder care (gastouderopvang) in Gelderland, Noord-Brabant, Overijssel, Utrecht, Zeeland and Zuid-Holland. Parents can search for available childminders (gastouders) in their region via our website by selecting province or postcode. We have a large network of Christian childminders spread across these provinces.

Korelon meets all legal requirements for childminder agencies (gastouderbureaus) and is inspected annually by the GGD (Municipal Health Service). We are affiliated with the Branchevereniging Kinderopvang (Childcare Industry Association) and the Geschillencommissie Kinderopvang en Peuterspeelzalen (Childcare and Preschool Disputes Committee). We have an internal complaints procedure and parents can submit complaints to the Disputes Committee. Our childminders (gastouders) are thoroughly screened with VOG (Certificate of Conduct) checks, diploma verification, first aid certification and risk assessments of care locations. We offer free accident insurance for childminders and guest children during care hours.
