Viviani

What Viviani does

Viviani, formally Stichting Viviani, is a Dutch non-profit foundation (stichting) headquartered in Emmen, Netherlands, that serves as the umbrella organization for Christian primary education across the municipality of Emmen and adjacent Borger-Odoorn. It operates 13 primary schools delivering basisonderwijs to school-age children, alongside the Vivikids subsidiary, which provides integrated childcare services including daycare (KDV, ages 0-4), after-school care (BSO, ages 4-13), and preschool (Voorschool). The organization is differentiated by its open Christian identity, declared core values of honesty, respect, openness, and trust, and a talent-development philosophy that includes specialized programs: Kwadraat Onderwijs for gifted and highly intelligent learners, and Passend Onderwijs for inclusive education support, both delivered through the regional Samenwerkingsverband Passend Onderwijs 2202 cooperative.

The operating model combines government-funded primary education (per-pupil OCW funding) with parent-fee childcare services billed at €9.95-€11.12 per hour under 2025 rates. Viviani's technology layer is administrative rather than instructional: Parnassys, a third-party secured digital student information system, manages records with restricted staff access; the Vivikids Ouderportaal, powered by Kidsadmin/Novict, provides online registration and schedule management for parents. Distribution is direct-to-consumer through physical school locations across Emmen and through self-serve online registration, with marketing conducted primarily via school-direct communication, parent newsletters, the viviani.nl website, and a Facebook page. Governance sits with a College van Bestuur led by Chairman Rob Kempers, supervised by a five-member Raad van Toezicht.

Revenue is not publicly disclosed, and the foundation's revenue base derives from government funding for basisonderwijs plus childcare fees from individual families. Vivikids holds registration in the Landelijk Register Kinderopvang, and all locations are subject to GGD health inspections and Onderwijsinspectie oversight. The organization has published annual reports from 2019 through 2025 and operates under a 2023-2027 strategic policy framework. There are no disclosed M&A activities, geographic expansion outside Emmen/Borger-Odoorn, or external funding rounds; growth is signaled through service-line deepening and operational integration rather than footprint expansion.
