Connected via agency
Grote Zus offers childminder (gastouder) care at home, so your children stay in their familiar environment. This means they can sleep in their own bed, play with their own toys and siblings, and the childminder can help with cooking, bathing or homework supervision at the end of the day. For school-aged children, it's a calm form of care where swimming lessons and clubs can continue as normal. The childminder provides individual attention and adapts to your family's rhythm.
