At Welkom Kind Lelystad, we carefully find a childminder (gastouder) who truly fits your family. We listen to your wishes and search for a childminder who matches your parenting style and that feeling of home. Our childminders offer a safe, loving place where your child feels at home, develops, and happily goes to. With a personal approach, we make a careful match and stay involved, so that both parent and child feel comfortable.

Welkom Kind Lelystad is active in Lelystad and surrounding areas. Our childminders are spread across different neighbourhoods in the city, allowing us to find a suitable childminder close to home for many parents in the region.

Welkom Kind Lelystad works according to the legal requirements for childminder care (gastouderopvang). Our childminders are registered in the National Childcare Register (Landelijk Register Kinderopvang/LRK) and are regularly inspected by the municipal health service (GGD). We apply the child abuse reporting code and offer training to childminders on safety and pedagogy. Parents can view the GGD inspection report online via the National Childcare Register.

At Smarttkids Zaanstreek, we help working parents find a suitable childminder (gastouder) for their child. We mediate between parents seeking care and childminders, guiding the entire process from introduction to evaluation. Our childminders meet all legal quality requirements and provide care in a homely, safe environment. We also support you with practical matters such as applying for childcare benefit (kinderopvangtoeslag) and offer personalized, tailored advice.

Smarttkids Zaanstreek is active in the Zaanstreek region. Our location in Opperdoes serves parents and childminders in this area. As part of the national Smarttkids network with 10 locations throughout the Netherlands, we can also provide support through our other locations where needed.

Smarttkids is a recognized childminder agency (gastouderbureau) that complies with all legal requirements. We work with GGD-approved risk and health assessment forms, and all childminders are thoroughly screened. Our LRKP number is 258099537 and we are affiliated with the Geschillencommissie Kinderopvang (Childcare Disputes Committee). Annual GGD inspections and evaluation meetings ensure continuous quality monitoring.
