Do you have a PAB or PVB budget and are you looking for a personal assistant or care provider who truly fits your situation? At Nanny's, we guide families and budget holders throughout the entire process: we listen to your needs, search for a suitable personal assistant and guide the practical start.
Both the Personal Assistance Budget (PAB) and the Person-Following Budget (PVB) are budgets from the Flemish Agency for Persons with a Disability (VAPH) with which support can be organised.
The main difference is simple. PAB is intended for children and young people with a disability. PVB is intended for adults with a disability.
With both budgets, families or budget holders can organise support themselves and engage a personal assistant who fits their situation.
| PAB | PVB |
|---|---|
| For minors | For adults |
| Budget managed by parents or legal representative | Budget managed by the budget holder or representative |
| Personal assistant possible | Personal assistant possible |
| Support tailored to children and young people | Support tailored to adults |
| Granted via the VAPH | Granted via the VAPH |
Which support is possible depends on the individual care need and the allocated budget.
A personal assistant supports someone with a care or support need in daily life. This can be very varied. For example:
Every assignment is different. That is why we never start from a standard function, but from the person behind the care need.
At Nanny's, we do not start from available candidates. We start from your story.
During a personal introductory meeting, we listen to:
Only then do we search for a personal assistant or care provider who truly fits you. Our candidates are carefully selected, personally screened and extensively questioned about experience, motivation and references. This is how we create lasting partnerships in which both the budget holder and the assistant feel comfortable.
That depends on the chosen form of employment. Some budget holders choose to become the employer themselves. Others opt for a formula in which the administrative follow-up is simplified as much as possible.
During a no-obligation introductory meeting, we look together at which solution best suits your situation and guide you through the practical start.

| Conduct conversations yourself | Personal screening |
| Check references yourself | Extensive reference checks |
