Their employer Van Lanschot Kempen offers this fringe benefit
Since the beginning of this year, Van Lanschot Kempen has been offering in-house babysitting for its employees. In this way, it supports its young working parents at moments when it matters. And for this target group, which combines young parenthood with a career, that is of indispensable value.
Marie Claire Baas, Compensation & Benefit Specialist at Van Lanschot Kempen: “At Van Lanschot Kempen, we attach great value to inclusion and diversity. A significant part of our colleagues has young children. For them, it is sometimes difficult to arrange childcare in such a way that a good work-life balance is maintained. From our ambition for a diverse benefits package, adding Charly Cares babysitting service to our employment conditions is a great way to keep parents with young children engaged with our organization and to safeguard a healthy balance.”
Meet the parents:
Nathalie lives in Harderwijk together with her partner and son Leon (7 years old) and daughter Emily (4 years old)
Levi lives together with her partner and two sons (one almost four and the other 7 months old) in Utrecht.
Tim lives together with his partner, 2.5-year-old daughter and dog Fred in Vleuten.

What does an employer-provided babysitter mean for you and your family?
Nathalie: "An employer-provided babysitter is a good supplement to after-school care for us. That is becoming increasingly expensive and is also not always flexible when it comes to swapping days/scheduling extra days, etc. I really appreciate that my employer Van Lanschot Kempen offers an employer-provided babysitter. It is often quite a puzzle to get the planning at home sorted out. We recently used it, for example, when the children were on holiday and we still had to work. The Angel simply came to our home."

Levi: "It gives us as a family a bit of freedom and flexibility when childcare is closed. And when I was in a tight spot a while ago during a busy period at work, I booked a babysitter through Charly Cares so I could still work some extra hours. Also, in my early days at Van Lanschot, I didn't have childcare completely arranged yet. On Tuesdays, I still had a challenge, which I solved with a babysitter provided by the company."
Tim: "A babysitter provided by the company takes stress away for our family, especially when we unexpectedly have work commitments. We really appreciate that the employer recognizes that unexpected obligations can arise and actively thinks along about a solution. For example, when daycare unexpectedly closes for a day, or when we have an important work appointment on a day off anyway.
What do you think of the Angels in the Charly Cares app?
Levi: "Because my youngest is still so young, experience was really a must. In the app I searched myself for Angels with baby experience and that was very nice."
Nathalie: "We don't live in the Randstad, but in Gelderland. I expected it would be more difficult to find an Angel nearby, but fortunately we still had quite a bit of choice. In the end, we found someone who is taking a gap year and can be deployed flexibly. I like it when there is a familiar face for the children. She is very sweet and caring, and I can leave the children with her with a good feeling."

What would you like to tell other parents or employers about this benefit?
Nathalie: "It is a very nice benefit that shows you are thinking along as an employer about employees who combine work with caring for (young) children. For parents, it is nice to have some extra help that can be used flexibly!"
Levi: "You can really use this benefit at any time, and it is only a good thing that Van Lanschot Kempen offers this. So my advice to all parents is: Book once through Charly Cares to see that it is really great to work with and that there are really many nice Angels."
