The scheme has been specially developed for director-major shareholders (DGAs) who are employed by their own BV or holding company, and therefore does not work for self-employed individuals (ZZP'ers). You pay for the babysitting credit from your gross salary before payroll tax is calculated. As a result, you pay less net, while the company itself incurs no extra costs.
