Childcare & After-school Care Rates
At De Groene Boomhut we have clear rates for our childcare and after-school care (BSO), so that you know where you stand. Below you will find the gross rates for the various locations and types of care. But please note: the amount you actually pay can be considerably lower. This is because you can apply for childcare allowance from the Tax Authorities.
What is childcare allowance?
Childcare allowance is a financial contribution from the government to reduce the costs of childcare. How much you get back depends on your income and how many children you send to childcare. This means that your net costs for childcare or after-school care are often lower than the rates you see below.
Would you like to know exactly how much childcare allowance you can receive?
You can easily make a trial calculation on the Tax and Customs Administration website to see what your net costs will be. Go to the Tax and Customs Administration Allowances Trial Calculation to calculate your childcare allowance.
