At W-care, parents find flexible childminder care (gastouderopvang) in a homely atmosphere, with a maximum of 6 children per childminder. Care is available for children from 0 to 12 years old and can take place either at the childminder's home or at your own home (nanny care). You only pay for the reserved days and times, with no minimum hour requirement. Our digital administration makes invoices and annual statements easy to view. We offer a large selection of qualified childminders throughout Friesland and the north of the Netherlands.
