Admission to Funtazia is based on a registration system. Families can register children at any time during the year. To complete the registration process, parents are requested to register digitally using the Registration Form on our website.

Day Care: We recommend making contact and registering your baby as soon as possible to be placed on our waiting list. Registration on our waitlist doesn’t mean any financial commitment for families. 

After School Care (BSO): Parents may apply for a place in Funtazia BSO at any time, however placement for the new school year takes place in the summer months from June-August. Before this time children are placed on a waiting list for the new school year. Children who have existing placements at Funtazia and who attend NAISR will be given priority. Registration is possible per full afternoon only and not per hour. The enrolment of a child in BSO constitutes an agreement with Funtazia, valid for the complete school year from August to June/July. Enrolment will automatically stop at the end of the NAISR or Dutch schools academic year. 

Holiday Care: Parents may apply for holiday care at any time. A reminder is sent to parents on the holiday care contact list several weeks before each break to ask them to confirm their needs for the upcoming period. Registration for holiday care is per full day only. Enrolment will automatically stop at the end of each holiday period. 

The enrolment of a child will be taken into consideration by Funtazia upon receipt of a completed application through our website.

Day Care: The minimum number of weekdays required to register for day care at Funtazia is two days per week 

After School Care (BSO): Monday, Tuesday and Thursday are popular days in the Funtazia BSO. Therefore, when requesting care on one of these days it is required that a child is placed for a minimum of two days in the BSO. 

Holiday Care: There is no minimum number of days required to register for Holiday Care 

Day Care: Placement is subject to availability. If we have no place available for the requested days, families will be placed on the waitlist and will be contacted as soon as a place opens up. Siblings of children already attending Funtazia and Nord Anglia International School Rotterdam (NAISR) are given priority. Funtazia offers a place by sending an agreement. After digitally signing the agreement, the reservation will be converted into a final placement.  

After School Care (BSO): Parents for whom a placement is possible will be contacted during the summer to confirm their requirements and to secure a place for their child. Funtazia services Nord Anglia International School Rotterdam (NAISR) families who often arrive in, or leave, The Netherlands during the summer break. For this reason after school care (BSO) contracts at Funtazia run for one academic year from August to June (NAISR) or until July (for students in Dutch schools). Placement is arranged on a yearly basis during the summer months. NAISR students, children with a placement the previous academic year and siblings will be given priority.

The amount you will get back is dependent on your combined gross income and the number of hours you and your partner are working/studying. Through this link, the government provides further information on the criteria to claim the Dutch Childcare Allowance (Kinderopvangtoeslag). This allowance applies to day care, after school care and holiday care.

Funtazia fees are all inclusive. Everything your child needs for the day is included in our fees.

Holiday Care: Parents with children also in the after school care (BSO) programme will be invoiced for holiday care one month in arrears together with the invoice for after school care (BSO).

If your child is attending, or is about to begin attending, day care or after school care (BSO), you may be eligible to receive kinderopvangtoeslag (Dutch Child Care Allowance). This benefit may in some instances also apply to holiday care. To determine whether you are eligible to receive this benefit and to calculate how much you may be entitled to, visit Dutch Child Care Allowance. You can apply for this benefit online by logging into Mijn toeslagen (you will need a DigiD for this). The 'Mijn toeslagen' section is only available in Dutch.  

You should always inform the Tax office of any changes in your situation, including changes in the number of child care hours, income changes, living arrangements etc. You can submit any changes online via the Mijn toeslagen section. You can also call the Tax Information Line and they will help you to submit your change. 

When your child turns four they may not immediately begin attending primary school. If your child turns four a few weeks before or during the summer holidays and you want to continue child care during the summer holidays, you can leave the allowance unchanged. So suppose your child turns 4 in June, but does not start school until August, then you are entitled to childcare allowance until the first day of school. The tax authorities take into account an extension during this period. If you want the allowance to continue at another time during the year, you may have to repay part of the allowance. Inquire about the exact conditions with the tax authorities. 

If your child is transitioning from day care to after school care (BSO), you will need to submit the changes in hours to the tax office. You can submit any changes online via the Mijn toeslagen section.

No, there are no refunds for cancellations, absences, vacations or sickness. If your child(ren) is/are absent, the full day will still be invoiced.  

In order to ensure we comply with required staffing ratios so that we are able to offer a high level of service at all times we offer full care days only (afternoons for BSO). Parents may drop their child off later, or collect them earlier than the regular hours. However, the cost remains the same. 

We encourage parents to pick up their children on time. Funtazia closes at 18:30. For the evening pick up, we ask you to arrive before 18:20 to allow time for a brief update from the teacher. In the event of unavoidable lateness (work emergency or heavy traffic), please notify us as early as possible via a phone call. While we understand that emergencies and traffic delays may occur, our staff is compensated for overtime. Therefore, a fee of €15 will be charged for every 15-minutes (or part thereof) for late pick-ups after 18:30.
