Frequently Asked Questions
No, this is not necessary. It is desirable that you enjoy dealing with children, it is ultimately about them. You also need a completed diploma at least MBO3 level. Preferably a diploma with a pedagogical interface, such as Agogic Work, Social Pedagogical Work or PABO. Don't have this? Then there are also options for following a training for mediation employee.
Your region is determined in consultation with you. It should preferably choose the region where you live and where your social network is located. Not all regions are (yet) available for a new branch, please discuss this with the head office.
This is not recommended in most cases. The past shows that the best results are achieved when there is a good investment of time in the new venture. If the other job can be arranged flexibly and where you remain accessible to customers, there may be possibilities.
As a self-employed person, you can arrange your working hours flexibly. However, it is important that you are easily accessible to customers with questions. A fast response time is desirable in this industry. However, don't be afraid that you can no longer go on holiday, because the head office is ready for you during this period to pick up your work where necessary.
You work as an independent entrepreneur (ZZP). You generate your income from the agreements you conclude between parent and childminder, for which a family pays office costs. These are charged for all mediation and administrative work that you and the head office perform.
You will work as an independent entrepreneur and are therefore responsible for your own income. These strongly depend on the time and effort you invest in your clientele. Experience shows that a skilled independent broker can reach a turnover level of € 10,000 per year after a year.
Yes, to maintain a uniform appearance you must adhere to the Toppie house style. We provide you with the necessary materials, such as printed matter, documents, educational resources and promotional material such as brochures.

No definitely not! In the beginning you will be intensively supervised by the employees of the head office. You get a two-day course that teaches you all the tricks of the trade. You will be taken by the hand in the pedagogical field, administratively and in the field of entrepreneurship. Laws and regulations are of course also discussed and you will be on the road during work on location (home visits) with experienced mediation staff.
