For parents
ViaViela helps parents in the The Hague region find a suitable childminder (gastouder) for their child. With personal guidance from a dedicated contact person from the region, we search for the best match between parental wishes and childminder qualities. Parents receive support throughout the entire process, from introduction to the start of care, including explanation of childcare benefit (kinderopvangtoeslag) and cost calculation.
Subsidy & costs
ViaViela informs parents about the possibility of applying for childcare benefit (kinderopvangtoeslag). During the introductory meeting, it is explained how the benefit works and a calculation of the costs is made. Parents can also make their own cost calculation using the online calculator tool on the website.
Childminder (gastouder) care through ViaViela is on average 20% cheaper than other forms of childcare. Parents only pay for the hours they agree upon, which offers flexibility with varying working hours. ViaViela provides an online calculator tool to compare the costs of childminder (gastouder) care with daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV), after-school care (BSO), or other forms of care.
Trust & screening
ViaViela carries out careful screening and selection of childminders (gastouders). All childminders (gastouders) are registered in the National Childcare Register and meet statutory requirements. ViaViela supports childminders (gastouders) with at least two visits per year to the care location, professional development, and regular evaluations to safeguard quality.

Mission & vision
ViaViela believes in childminder (gastouder) care in a small-scale, homely environment where building a secure attachment relationship with the child comes first. Only then can children feel safe and begin to explore the world. We are attentive to the unique character of every child, and all children are welcome — including children who need extra care.
Pedagogical vision
ViaViela translates its vision into principles for pedagogical practice based on the four core pedagogical objectives of Prof. J.M.A. Riksen Walraven: providing emotional security, developing personal competence, developing social competence, and transmitting values and norms. Childminders (gastouders) work according to these core objectives and receive support through pedagogical newsletters, work plans, and observation instruments.

Summary
Childminder agency ViaViela Den Haag in Leiden was inspected by Municipal Health Service (GGD) Hollands Midden on 6 July 2026. The annual inspection shows that the agency meets all quality requirements in the areas of pedagogical policy, personnel and quality/duty of care. The holder, Joëlle Bijl, is a franchisee and uses the pedagogical policy plan of the franchisor. She herself fulfils the role of pedagogical policy worker/coach, but does not yet hold the required qualification. She is making use of the statutory grace period until 1 July 2027. Coaching of host parents has therefore not yet been assessed. Host parents are visited at least twice a year and receive tailored guidance. No violations were identified. The advice to the municipality is: no enforcement action.
