For parents
At Kids & Care childminder agency (gastouderbureau), you will find flexible, small-scale childcare in a home-like environment. We mediate between parents and childminders (gastouders) for children from 0 to 13 years. A childminder naturally offers homeliness and small-scale care, giving your child more personal attention. There are no fixed opening hours, and in case of illness, care can often continue after consultation. Your child becomes part of the childminder's family life, with opportunities for outings to places such as the market or city centre.
Subsidy & costs
Parents may be eligible for childcare benefit (kinderopvangtoeslag) from the Tax and Customs Administration. The benefit is calculated based on the working hours of the parent with the smallest employment contract. For children aged 0-4, a reimbursement applies for up to 140% of these hours; for children aged 4-13, up to 70%. We refer parents to the Tax and Customs Administration for a personal calculation and offer support with questions about the application.
Care is paid for on a bespoke basis, with distinctions made according to the number of care days you need. We do not charge a registration fee, to keep the threshold as low as possible.
