Support families and/or support parents wanted!

Neighborhood Families Alkmaar is looking for a family or couple for several children who want to be there for them as a kind of grandfather/grandmother, uncle/aunt or good neighbor. Under the motto “We raise children together”, Neighborhood Families links families who could use some support to a family in the neighborhood. This way, children get some extra love and attention and the parents are relieved of the burden. These families unfortunately lack this support in their own environment and have therefore registered with us. Does this seem fun to you and are you available for part of the day (every other week)? This light support can make a big difference for our asking families! The help is mundane and friendly. The requesting and supporting family make agreements about support under the guidance of the Neighborhood Families coordinator. For example, it could be a weekly play date, an occasional weekend stay or doing something fun together. That is tailor-made every time. The coordinator remains involved even once the support has started. Feel free to take a look at the website [website hidden] and read about the questions that are currently open. Please note, not all questions are online! You can also contact me without obligation, so that we can discuss together whether being a support family suits you. Kind regards, Carla (coordinator of Neighborhood Families in Alkmaar)

About Carla

Buurtgezinnen is a national initiative based on an old idea: we raise children together. Families who need support (request families) are linked to a warm and stable family in the neighbourhood (support families). This way, children get some extra love and attention and parents are relieved for a while. The help is everyday and friendly. The request and support families make agreements about the support under the guidance of the coordinator of Buurtgezinnen. For example, it could be a weekly play date, a weekend sleepover or doing something fun together. That is tailor-made every time. The coordinator remains involved for a maximum of 2 years to support the contact where necessary. In the municipality of Alkmaar, I, Carla Stubbe, am the coordinator involved from Buurtgezinnen.

The parents' wish is to build more peace and balance into family life. The family has lived in Beverwijk since 2022. Their home is currently still under renovation, so this wish is sometimes difficult to fulfill. This family could use some help. The two sons of this family regularly get in each other's way and the parents are currently unable to properly guide this. Their family lives in the immediate area and they have not yet managed to build a new network. He is a social and active boy. He feels most at ease with children his own age.

This cheerful, enterprising and caring 7-year-old girl grows up with her sweet mother in Heemskerk. Her mother takes care of her daughter with love, but this is sometimes quite difficult due to physical complaints. That is why we are looking for a supportive family for her daughter in the Poelenburg district or around the center of Heemskerk. There is no family around who can help when this tough woman is unable to cope. She finds it difficult to ask for help and lives a secluded life, even though some support would do her so much good. It would be great if there was someone nearby where her daughter could play occasionally after school. Then her mother can recover, knowing that her daughter is having a pleasant afternoon with a familiar family. This girl is a fun chatterbox. She is enterprising and likes to play outside (forest and beach), dance and rollerblade. She also enjoys painting, baking and crafting indoors. Are you a family with a peer where this little superhero can come and play from school every now and then? Then I would love to get in touch with you! We are looking for a family in Beverwijk or Heemskerk: -Where this girl is welcome every other week after school (days and times in consultation); -Where she can possibly play for a few hours during the weekend; -Preferably with peers; -With pets, but that is not a must! -In the Poelenburg district or around the center of Heemskerk Do you want more information?

For a family from Beverwijk with two children, we are looking for a nice extra place for their eldest son (6). Raising two small children is something many parents can relate to. If your energy level is low as a mother, it sometimes becomes too heavy and the bucket overflows. It becomes extra difficult if you cannot call on your husband during the week because he is away from home for long days at work. If it also turns out that you have to embark on a whole medical process with your youngest son due to... his growth development, then things are tense. A domestic worker helps this caring mother, but there are no immediate friends or family she can call on. How nice it would be if there was a family in the area with peers where her eldest could go every other week. This 6-year-old is a wonderfully energetic boy, who also needs some rest every now and then. He plays football, likes to walk and can cycle independently. He loves being in nature and helping in the vegetable garden. This boy is very helpful and wants to play together! He also likes to visit a petting zoo. Do you have a nice (vegetable) garden and do your children also like to kick a ball? We are looking for a nice family in Beverwijk/Heemskerk: With peers; Where this boy can come out of school once every 14 days on Wednesdays (2.15 pm) or on Saturdays to play football or help in the (vegetable) garden; Where it is possible to give him a predictable daily routine. Do you want more information? Then you can contact Ingeborgh Olij-Frima Neighborhood Families coordinator for the municipalities of Beverwijk and Heemskerk, via [email address hidden].

For a nice family from Beverwijk, Buurtgezinnen is looking for a girlfriend for the 3-year-old daughter. She is growing up with her sweet parents and is the proud big sister of a baby sister. The family has been living on the border of the Oosterwijk and Broekpolder districts for a long time. There are few girls living in the street and this little lady really thinks that is a shame. She does meet girls at the playgroup, but unfortunately they do not live in her immediate vicinity. Her mother is deaf and her father is hard of hearing, which sometimes also hinders contact with others. It takes a lot of effort for the parents to help their daughter to make friends. Her mother experiences this herself too, she would really like to have more contact with other mothers. Both she and her husband can speak (understandably) and sign language, just like all children. Both parents are fully engaged in life, work and also like to go out together. The girl likes playing outside, tennis, football, blowing bubbles, dolls, crafts, clay and drawing. Will you welcome this loving girl-girl? And do you perhaps have time for a cup of tea with her mother? We are looking for a support family in the vicinity of the Oosterwijk and Broekpolder district: Where the girl is welcome every other Tuesday morning; With a daughter who is about the same age (3); That also wants to build up contact slowly; That does not shy away from deaf or hard of hearing parents; That is open to meeting up with the mother occasionally.

This single mother and her 5-year-old son live in Beverwijk. Together they form a close family. The mother gives her son all the attention he deserves, but she does not always have the energy to give him this attention. That is why we are looking for a couple without children or a family with teenagers or children living away from home where this boy can come and play every other week The mother works in healthcare. She recently stopped living with the father of her son. As a result, they will have to move soon. In addition, the entire upbringing falls on her shoulders. You understand, it is a difficult time. The mother does have (in-laws) who help and support her, but that is not enough at the moment. She notices that she is often very tired. How nice would it be if she had her hands free for a few hours in the weekend and could recharge. This sweet and energetic boy goes to a Heliomare education 5 days a week due to the suspicion of autism. He is in the right place here and is having a great time! He likes to play indoors or in the garden. He also likes to play outside, but this is under supervision. Every now and then he needs a bit more rest. When you get to know him better, you will be able to recognize that. He makes it clear what he wants by pointing and using pictograms. He also understands Dutch well. This little guy can play nicely, but he will not immediately take the initiative himself. He likes to play with clay, duplo, lego and play sand. But he also loves listening to music and reading books. After all that playing, you can sit with him at the table to eat or rest on the couch. Supporting this family requires a little more, but with your patience and curiosity you make this little boy's world a little more beautiful! Do you have experience with children or do you know someone who can offer this family a helping hand? Then I would love to get in touch with you. We are looking for a support family in Heemskerk/Beverwijk: Where this boy is welcome every other Saturday; Where the bond can be built up quietly; from a few hours on Saturday to a half day; That has experience with children with autism; That is open to close contact with the mother; she can actively help if there are questions.

For a sweet, curious and social 5-year-old boy from Heemskerk, Buurtgezinnen is looking for a support parent who wants to pick him up from school once a week to go cycling, driving, visiting a playground or a petting zoo with him. You can't do him a bigger pleasure with one of these activities! And that will relieve his parents for one afternoon a week. The boy attends Heliomare education 5 days a week because he has a backlog in his general development. This makes life difficult for his parents at home and after school. They are overloaded, have people around them who support them, but cannot meet this specific demand of their son. We are looking for a support parent in Beverwijk/Heemskerk: Who picks the boy up from school once a week, on Monday or Wednesday; Who goes cycling, driving, visiting a petting zoo or a playground with him (from 2:30 PM to 5:00 PM); And then brings him home again.

For a family from Heemskerk, Buurtgezinnen is looking for a nice place for the 7-year-old boy. He is growing up in Heemskerk with his parents and has a 2-year-old brother. His parents fled their country of origin before the children were born. In recent years, they lived in an asylum seekers' center in another part of the Netherlands. Since 2023, the family has lived in Heemskerk, where they know few to no people, except for the neighbors. Since the parents have been allowed to build a future in the Netherlands, they have been working hard on their future here. They are almost finished with integration and the mother of the family has now found a job as an architect. The father is also doing an internship as an architect. You understand: the combination of school, work and a family is quite tough for these parents! With your help, the parents can breathe a little easier, and that is very welcome. Normally, the family would ask family or friends for help. Then their son could play there on Wednesday afternoons. Unfortunately, this is not one of their options. This boy has little contact with children from his school outside of school hours. This cheerful boy is social. He speaks good Dutch and would like to play with other children after school. He likes football, reading, playing the piano and chess! Do you have a place in your life for this football player? We are looking for a family in Heemskerk/Beverwijk: In the Oosterwijk district with a son of the same age; That shares the same interests; Where there is also room to play and read; Where this boy is welcome on Wednesday afternoons from 12:15 to 16:30.

For a warm and caring family in Heemskerk, Buurtgezinnen is looking for a support family that can offer their cheerful and energetic six-year-old son a safe place. An extra home where he can relax and have fun. This boy lives with his father, mother and older brother and sister. Although his parents still live together, they are no longer a couple. This has taken its toll; his hard-working mother has become overloaded. She has had to temporarily stop working to work on her own recovery. She wants her son to have an extra place and dreams of a loving couple without young children. A place where her son is welcome once a week or every two weeks on a Wednesday (morning or afternoon). And where he can do nice things with adults, express his creativity and above all enjoy the moment. The hustle and bustle of the family and the situation at home mean that this boy sometimes needs some time and space for himself. For him, such a place would not only mean a moment of peace and fun, but also make a valuable contribution to his development and well-being. For his mother, it gives her the space to work on herself, so that she can become stronger for her family. This boy is an inquisitive and enthusiastic child who is bursting with energy. His short attention span means that he is always on the move. But when he finds an activity in which he can lose himself, such as drawing, painting or making impressive constructions with Lego, he shines. Playing outside and going to the playground are his favorites. He proudly talks about his kickboxing and swimming lessons. Can you offer this boy a place and do you want to make a difference in the life of this family? Contact me. Together we will build a strong neighborhood! What are we looking for in a support family? A warm and involved couple without young children, with time and attention for this boy; A quiet and safe environment where he can be himself and relax; Availability on Wednesday (morning or afternoon).

Neighbourhood Families – We raise children together! Under the motto ‘We raise children together’, Neighbourhood Families connects families who could use support to a stable family in the neighbourhood. This way, children get some extra love and attention and parents are relieved. This prevents problems from getting worse and ensures that children grow up positively in their own family. How does it work? The requesting and supporting families are connected by one of the coordinators, Maaike or Marieke. Together with them, agreements are made about the support. For example, it could be a (bi)weekly play date, a weekend sleepover or doing something fun together. This is different for every request and child. By whom? Support is provided by families who want to help a family in their neighbourhood. This can be a family with children, but that is not necessary. (Grand)parents with children living away from home and couples without children are also very welcome. We do think it is very important that support parents have experience with children. More information, a no-obligation introduction or registration, you can read all about it at [website hidden] or contact Maaike and Marieke via a message.

Since they have been absent from work, these loving parents have faced many challenges. Raising their two gentle children (7 and 5) is now asking extra of them. They are tired and have little energy to do fun things with their two. And that is what they really want for these sweethearts. A support family where they can come and play would be very welcome. With an occasional moment for themselves, the road to recovery will hopefully be a little shorter. The sweet, sensitive boy of 7 is very creative. He makes beautiful huts or a large boat out of boxes. He then plays in them all day long, full of fantasy. Everything is dragged in: tablecloths, dolls, cuddly toys and his dog. He comes up with great stories. Now that he has only just started in group 3, he is thoroughly enjoying learning to read and write. His cheerful sister (5) is a real jack-of-all-trades. At first, she waits to see what happens. If she feels a connection with you, that ‘waiting to see what happens’ sometimes only lasts 10 minutes. After that, she enjoys dancing, singing and being silly. Or playing outside with her big brother. Would you like this duo to come and play?

These parents allow their son (11) to have a fun play date every now and then. He goes to a special education school outside the village and he really enjoys it there. He sometimes meets up with children from the neighborhood; he thinks that's great fun. But actually, a buddy to do something fun with more often would be very nice for him. During the introduction, he talks a lot. He would prefer a support family with a boy his age. One who likes the same things as he does. A game of Roblox or Minecraft indoors, or playing with Lego. When he has saved enough money, he is going to buy the Lego Technic excavator. You can build on that for a long time and he likes a challenge! He also loves being outside. He doesn't understand that there are teenagers who only hang out on the couch indoors. He prefers to go into nature with his grandfather: to walk, spot special birds and look at insects and mushrooms. As he himself says: "Nature is in my blood!"

THIS QUESTION IS FOR A SHORT PERIOD: UNTIL THE SUMMER HOLIDAYS! After the divorce, this single mother fought hard to get everything back on track. She does this incredibly well. She provides a warm home for her children and works to be able to provide for them financially. Recently, school hours have changed and she has to arrange extra day care for her 4-year-old son. That is not available at such short notice and that causes sleepless nights. A support family where her toddler can play on Fridays from 9:00 to 14:30 would help this mother a lot. From 14:30 he can go to the after-school care. This sweet boy is a cheerful chatterbox. He loves crafting, drawing and painting. Playing (outside) with dinosaurs, cars and their cats is also his favourite. He really enjoys just having a nice cup of tea together. Of course, this always includes a cookie, because he is a real sweet tooth! Do you want to help this mother until the summer holidays?

These loving parents have been living in the Netherlands for a number of years. They really enjoy their village and like to go out with their son (6). Family regularly visits and the family participates in activities of the neighborhood association. They do miss pleasant recurring contacts outside the home. Especially the mother, because her husband works outside the home as a volunteer 3 days a week. She longs to have a cup of coffee with another woman. Maybe you can go to the playground or the forest together or just chat at home. Then she can also practice the Dutch language, because she sometimes finds that quite exciting. Their son enjoys having people around him. Because he goes to school outside the village, he has few friends in the neighborhood. That makes it difficult to meet up after school. At home he likes to build with his Lego. He makes up whole stories about it. Because he does have imagination. He regularly puts his dad in jail when they play 'cops and robbers' together.
