Good employer practices

Kindergarden is the first in the Netherlands to offer the combination of childcare services with knowledge, advice, and support services for employees through WorkFamily Solutions. WorkFamily Solutions is based on the successful model of Kindergarden's international parent organization, Bright Horizons. The service has already proven itself in countries such as the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, India, and Germany. By now, around 10,000 companies have embraced the concept. Nicole Krabbenborg, Director of Kindergarden Netherlands: "WorkFamily Solutions is the solution for companies that believe in good employer practices. By helping parents find a good work-life balance, they retain their valuable employees. This is reflected not only in commitment and loyalty but also in a reduction in absenteeism."

Benefits for employees and employers

WorkFamily Solutions ensures the availability of structural childcare, as well as occasional care (Back-up Care). It also provides employees with access to knowledge, coaching, and expertise. These are services that contribute not only to the well-being of employees but also to the success of organizations. Additionally, it helps retain more (female) talent.

This service is the answer to the growing needs of young working parents and offers many benefits to companies," says Annekee Goedhuis, Director of Marketing, Customer Relations & WorkFamily Solutions.
