Out-of-school care rates.

The above rates are valid from January 1 to December 31, 2026.

• The government rate for out-of-school care is € 9.98 per hour. This is the amount used to calculate the childcare allowance from the Tax Authorities.
  
  
• Additional childcare is possible, but depends on staff scheduling and the relevant legislation. You pay the rate associated with your contract for this.
  
  
• Some branches offer pre-school care. In some cases, this can only be purchased in combination with afterschool care.
  
  
• The standard time for before-school childcare is from 7:30 to the start of school, and after-school care is from the end of school until 18:30.
  
  
• We offer drop-off and collection to and from the cooperating primary school. This may vary for each branch, usually on foot or by (cargo) bicycle. Sometimes we use a minibus taxi.
  
  
• The 52-week afterschool care arrangement includes:
  - Care after school hours during school weeks on days specified in the contract.
  - Full-day care during school holidays on days specified in the contract.
  - On school closure days (as designated by the school in the school guide), care will be provided on days specified in the contract. This applies to the hours after school until the centre’s closing time. If full-day care is needed on school closure days, you can request and purchase additional care hours. Care during these hours is provided according to the rules of the professional childcarer-child ratio.
  - For school closure days not listed in the school guide, we will do our best to arrange care, but we cannot guarantee that it will always be possible.
  
  • The 40-week afterschool care arrangement includes:
  - Care after school hours during school weeks on days specified in the contract.
  - On school closure days (as designated by the school in the school guide), care will be provided on days specified in the contract. This applies to the hours after school until the centre’s closing time.
  - If full-day care is needed during holidays or on school closure days, you can request and purchase additional care hours. Care during these hours is provided according to the rules of the professional childcarer-child ratio.
  - For school closure days not listed in the school guide, we will do our best to arrange care, but we cannot guarantee that it will always be possible.
  
  
• The average number of hours per month is charged on an annual basis on the monthly invoice. This way you pay the same amount every month.
  - For the 52-week arrangement, we divide the total number of hours on an annual basis by 12 months. The additional hours during holiday weeks are spread over the entire year.
  - For the 40-week arrangement, we divide the total number of hours per year by 11 months. The month of July or August will not be invoiced.
  
  
• For the twelve school holiday weeks, we link up with the official holiday weeks of the Central Government (Region South).
  
  
• Groups can be combined during holidays and the care can take place at other branches.
  
  
• Some branches offer a hot meal service for a fee.
