For After-school care: the way the child arrives at and leaves the After-school care determines the transfer of responsibility for the child.

Under the Agreement, the Entrepreneur is bound to provide Childcare under the conditions agreed upon therein and in these General Terms and Conditions.<\/p>\n 2. The Entrepreneur guarantees that:<\/p>\n a. The Childcare taking place under their responsibility: <\/p>\n i. complies with applicable laws and regulations; <\/p>\n ii. is performed in accordance with the requirements of good craftsmanship and using sound materials; <\/p>\n b. A Childcare Center falling under their responsibility is suitable for responsible childcare, both in terms of personnel and material facilities.

This annex forms an integral part of these General Terms and Conditions. <\/p>\n c. They comply with laws and regulations. <\/p>\n 3.

The Parent refrains from behavior that poses a risk or threat to the mental and\/or physical health or safety of others and\/or hinders or disproportionately burdens the Entrepreneur’s service provision to (the children of) other Parents. The Parent ensures that their child also refrains from this. <\/p>\n 5. The Parent drops off and picks up the child on time and ensures compliance with this obligation by others who drop off and pick up the child on their behalf.<\/p>\n 6. The Entrepreneur records the authority of persons other than the Parents to pick up the child from Childcare In Writing if the Parent so requests.<\/p>\n 7. The Parent pays the Entrepreneur in accordance with the agreements made in the Agreement and within the payment term, or at least bears responsibility for this.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”ARTICLE 10 \u2013 Accessibility” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” open=”off” hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n 1. The location where the child is placed is, in principle, accessible to the child.<\/p>\n 2. The Entrepreneur has the right to refuse the child and\/or the Parent access to the location for the duration of the period that normal care of the child cannot reasonably be expected from the Entrepreneur and the child cannot be cared for in the usual way. For example because: <\/p>\n a. The child has an extra care need due to illness or otherwise that: <\/p>\n i. the Entrepreneur is legally not allowed to provide; or <\/p>\n ii. exceeds the individual healthcare agreed upon in the Agreement (see Article 8 paragraph 1); or <\/p>\n iii. the Entrepreneur is factually unable to provide properly. <\/p>\n b. The child and\/or the Parent (i) poses a risk or threat to the mental and\/or physical health or safety of others and\/or (ii) hinders or disproportionately burdens the Entrepreneur’s service provision to (the children of) other Parents. Before the Entrepreneur refuses access on this ground, the Entrepreneur warns the Parent, unless a warning cannot reasonably be required due to the severity or urgency; <\/p>\n c. The (trust) relationship between Entrepreneur and Parent is disrupted, making continuation of the Agreement in its unchanged form unreasonable for the Entrepreneur. <\/p>\n 3. In the event the Entrepreneur refuses the child and\/or the Parent access to the location, the Entrepreneur will consult with the Parent to find a solution for the situation that is acceptable to all Parties.<\/p>\n 4. If the Parent does not agree with a decision to refuse access based on Article 10 paragraph 2 and the consultation with the Entrepreneur has not led to a solution, they can submit this decision to the Disputes Committee with the request to handle the dispute according to the shortened procedure as referred to in the Regulations of the Childcare Disputes Committee.<\/p>\n 5. During the shortened procedure, the Entrepreneur may not terminate the Agreement.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”ARTICLE 11 – The price and the change of the price” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” open=”off” hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n 1. The price the Parent must pay for the Childcare from the Commencement Date is included in the Agreement.<\/p>\n 2. Changes to the agreed price take place observing the provisions in Article 11 paragraphs 3 to 8.<\/p>\n 3. The Entrepreneur may change (including increase) the agreed price once per calendar year and, in the case of an increase in the agreed price, for the first time no earlier than after at least three months have passed since the Effective Date.<\/p>\n 4. Reasons for the price change include changes in costs and other factors regarding the Entrepreneur’s business operations, as further specified in Annex 3.<\/p>\n 5. The Entrepreneur will notify the Parent of the price change In Writing before the changed price takes effect. The Entrepreneur will also state the date on which the changed price takes effect. The effective date for the changed price is at least 40 days after the day the price change was announced to the Parent. <\/p>\n 6. Before the Entrepreneur proceeds to (announcing to the Parent) a change in the agreed price, (i) they will draw up a request for advice containing the intended price change decision provided with a supporting explanation, and (ii) they will enable the Parent Committee (or the combined Parent Committee), in accordance with Article 1.60 of the Childcare Act, to issue advice on the intended price change decision. With this request for advice and following any additional questions from the Parent Committee, the Entrepreneur will provide in writing all information that the Parent Committee reasonably needs to be able to issue advice on the intended price change decision. In the event the Entrepreneur is not legally obliged to establish a Parent Committee, the Entrepreneur will demonstrably involve the Parents sufficiently in another way in the intended price change decision. <\/p>\n 7. The Entrepreneur can only deviate from the advice as referred to in Article 11 paragraph 6 if the Entrepreneur indicates in writing and with reasons that the interest of the Childcare opposes the advice. If the Parent Committee cannot agree with the deviation from the advice, it has the possibility to turn to the Disputes Committee. <\/p>\n 8. The Parent has the right (also) in the event of an (announced) price change to terminate the Agreement In Writing and without further motivation (see Article 6 paragraph 3 under a). If the Parent terminates in the 40 days before and 14 days after the effective date of the changed price, no notice period applies (see Article 6 paragraph 5 under a). <\/p>\n<\/section>\n [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”ARTICLE 12 – Payment \/ Late payment” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” open=”off” hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n 1. The Entrepreneur always provides a Written invoice and states on it the amount to be paid by the Parent (in accordance with the Agreement) and the final payment date. The invoice is provided free of charge. <\/p>\n 2. If a Parent pays a third party designated by the Entrepreneur, this counts as a discharging payment for the Parent. The designation by the Parent of a third party to take care of making payments does not stand in the way of the Parent’s liability for (timely) payment. Any payment by a third party for the Parent does count as a discharging payment by that Parent. <\/p>\n 3. If payment has not been made by the final payment date stated on the invoice, the Entrepreneur will send a Written payment reminder to the Parent. In it, the Entrepreneur gives the Parent notice of default and gives the Parent the opportunity to still pay within 15 calendar days after receipt of this payment reminder. <\/p>\n 4. Furthermore, the Entrepreneur warns the Parent in the payment reminder of the authority to terminate based on Article 6 paragraph 3 under b under (i). This warning must have been sent to the Parent at least 14 days before the date on which the authority to terminate arises. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”ARTICLE 13 \u2013 Applicable law and competent court” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” open=”off” hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n 1.

The Parent must submit the complaint within a reasonable time after they have discovered the defect in performance or reasonably should have discovered it within the meaning of Article 6:89 of the Dutch Civil Code. <\/p>\n 2. The Entrepreneur handles the complaint in accordance with its internal complaints procedure. When drafting or changing this procedure, the Parent Committee has the right to advise in accordance with the provisions of the Childcare Act. <\/p>\n 3.
