Municipality of Gouda: applying for an allowance for own contribution to childcare costs
In Gouda you don't get money, but your toddler can go to a childcare centre a half-day twice a week for free. This is part of the kindpakket (child package).
Please note: you can apply for this only if you live in the Netherlands and are registered with a municipality.
You must meet the following conditions:
- You receive childcare allowance from the Belastingdienst (Tax and Customs Administration).
- You, your partner and your child are registered with the municipality of Gouda.
- Your income is less than 120% of the social assistance benefit.
- The free childcare is for children aged 2 years and 3 months up to 4 years.
You can apply for the free childcare by telephone, +31 182 58 84 44
Good to know:
If you get free childcare, the municipality of Gouda will transfer the amount directly to the chilcare centre.
