Do you have to go to work and you do not have a sitter? Then child care for children aged 0 to 4 years old is available in a kinderdagverblijf. Children can stay there from 8 o'clock in the morning until six o'clock in the evening. There are often waiting lists for children from 0-2 years. Children attending primary school can go to naschoolse opvang straight after school.
Do you have children and are you involved with a reintegration project? Have you been ill for a long time or are you reentering the employment market for a different reason? Then you can apply for a contribution towards child care costs from the UWV.
Would you like personal child care? You can also arrange for your child to be looked after by gastouders. You can make personal arrangements with the guest parents regarding the care to be provided. Guest parent care is suitable for children of all ages. For babies, but also for older children. Guest parents can be found via a Gastouderbureau.
Does your child have a disability? Ask about care possibilities at MEE. Call them or take a look at the website. You can obtain more information and advice from the Centrum voor Jeugd en Gezin (CJG) and from the council’s Wmo-loket.
Child care is often expensive. Take a look at child care allowance to see which financial contributions you may be eligible for.
