A Family Assistant works full time (at least 30 hours a week) for one family and takes on caring, organisational and managerial tasks. From the family diary and running the household to managing other staff.
The result: calm and rhythm at home, and time for the things that truly matter.
A Family Assistant can take the following tasks off your hands, among others:
Other wishes? Feel free to get in touch with us. We are happy to think along with you! Also read about the difference between a Nanny and a Family Assistant and see what best suits your family's needs.
Do you run your own business? It can be advantageous to put the Family Assistant on your company's payroll. A Family Assistant can also partly carry out PA duties or support administrative and organisational tasks within the business. The costs of the Family Assistant are then deductible, and you can, for example, also insure the Family Assistant against incapacity for work. Feel free to get in touch with us to discuss the options.
A Family Assistant truly becomes part of the family. A good connection is therefore essential for a pleasant and lasting working relationship. We guide you through the entire process and find the perfect support for your family. Quality, reliability and discretion are our highest priorities. That is why we take ample time for the screening process and are selective about the Family Assistants we accept into our pool. We take care of everything for you during this process. And if you would like to deploy the Family Assistant partly as a PA for your own business, we help you with payroll, insurance and everything else that is needed.

Partnership
Our Nannies and Family Assistants follow masterclasses given by child psychologist Tischa Neve, known in the Netherlands from the television programme Schatjes and the author of several books on parenting. That way they know what children need at every stage.
For families who wish to receive the Dutch childcare allowance for their Nanny, we work with the administration office Kas & Kroost. They handle the application and the payroll administration, in line with the applicable regulations.
Quality
We take the entire selection and screening process off your hands.
Coaching and guidance: one week after the start we get in touch and coach where needed. After 3 weeks, 6 months and 10 months there is another evaluation, and you can always contact us in between.
