At Gastouderbureau Solo Bambini, we believe it's important that children get to just be children for a while longer. Children don't have to do arts and crafts every day, but they can if they feel like it. Your childminder takes into account the individual wishes of the children. Childminder care offers a home-like atmosphere where children feel at ease and can build a good emotional bond with their childminder. Due to the small scale (maximum 6 children including the childminder's own children up to 10 years old), children receive plenty of attention and their social development is stimulated.
Gastouderbureau Solo Bambini places childminders throughout the Netherlands. The agency is based in Alphen (Noord-Brabant) and has a strong presence in the region around Tilburg, including Goirle, Riel, Alphen, Gilze and Poppel. Parents can find childminders in their own region via the website by clicking on a province.
Gastouderbureau Solo Bambini is officially registered in the National Childcare Register (Landelijk Register Kinderopvang) under number 144894154. The agency meets all legal requirements for childminder agencies and works according to an approved pedagogical policy plan. All childminders are carefully selected and must endorse the pedagogical policy plan. Invoicing and payment processing between parents and childminders is handled by Solo Bambini, in accordance with the Childminder Care System Change of 1 January 2010.
