At Gastouderbureau Tiko, we find a reliable childminder (gastouder) for your child in a homely environment. We look for a childminder who suits your family, taking your parenting style and beliefs into account. Once we find a suitable match, we arrange a no-obligation introductory meeting at the childminder's home.

You can also bring your own childminder to Tiko, such as an acquaintance, neighbour or family member, as long as they meet the legal requirements. We also offer in-home childcare, where the childminder comes to your home.

Gastouderbureau Tiko is active in the municipalities of Achtkarspelen and Noardeast-Fryslân and surrounding areas. We mediate childminders in this region for small-scale childcare close to home. Our childminders are spread across various locations in Friesland, enabling us to find a childminder nearby for most parents.

Our childminder agency stands for quality and meets all legal requirements. We maintain a policy that ensures the safety and health of the children in our care is safeguarded as much as possible. Childminders are visited at least twice a year for risk assessment and progress meetings.

We have internal and external complaints procedures and are transparent about GGD inspection reports. Parents can view the inspection reports of our childminder agency and our childminders via the National Childcare Register (Landelijk Register Kinderopvang).
