Jabadoe Childcare chooses continuity with its connection to Partou

For Partou the takeover Jabadoe is part of the strategy to further strengthen its presence in the region. The Steenwijk location is a valuable addition to Partou's national network.

For Jabadoe, the partnership primarily means maintaining quality and a personalized approach, while Partou offers support based on scale and organizational strength. Administration and policy matters can be more centralized, freeing up teams on the ground to focus on what childcare is all about: caring for the children.
For Janneke, this step also meant carefully handing over her life's work. After 24 years as an entrepreneur, she was ready for a new phase, with the assurance that Jabadoe would remain in good hands.

Janneke ten Brink: “Match Plan understands better than anyone what's involved in selling your childcare business, and it's more than you can imagine. They know the industry, the culture, and the market. The sales process had its ups and downs for me, but I was supported and supported throughout every phase of this intensive process, especially by Arno and Mark from Match Plan. They also took care of everything when needed. Match Plan has been incredibly valuable. They connected me with Partou, where, after 24 years, I'm leaving my life's work in trusted hands and with a good feeling.”

Match Plan guided Jabadoe Childcare throughout the entire sales process: by valuation and positioning to guide the sales process, negotiations, due diligence and the legal completion.

The deal team consisted of Arno Dielesen, Yvo Bruin and Mark van Brecht.

“It was a pleasant experience with excellent and close contact with the seller. We congratulate Janneke on the sale and are pleased that we, as Match Plan, were able to guide her in realizing her entrepreneurial dream.” according to Mark van Brecht, Consultant M&A.
