Gastouderbureau De Kleintjes gives parents in South Limburg access to small-scale, personal childminder care (gastouderopvang) at a transparent and affordable rate. The agency matches parents with pedagogically trained childminders who care for a maximum of 6 children at a time, ensuring a close bond and individual attention. Parents are entitled to childcare benefit (kinderopvangtoeslag) and can count on flexible care options tailored to their personal situation.

The agency supports parents with a complete package of services, including matching with a suitable childminder, administrative handling, invoicing, and annual quality checks through home visits. All childminders work according to a pedagogical policy plan and hold a first aid certificate for children.

Gastouderbureau De Kleintjes is active in South Limburg, particularly in the Heerlen region and surrounding areas. The agency matches parents with childminders in this region, with a focus on small-scale, personal care close to home. The exact availability of childminders varies by location and is discussed during the matching process.

Gastouderbureau De Kleintjes has been registered in the National Childcare Register (Landelijk Register Kinderopvang) since 1 July 2012 under number 218034490 and falls under the supervision of GGD Zuid Limburg. The agency is affiliated with the Childcare Disputes Committee (Geschillencommissie Kinderopvang) for independent dispute resolution.

Annual inspection reports from the GGD are publicly available on the website, as are important documents such as the privacy policy, internal complaints procedure, child abuse protocol, and protocol on transgressive behaviour. The agency carries out two home visits per year with childminders to ensure quality and discusses the findings with parents.
