About me
As a child, I always had some kind of craft project on the go. Whatever the materials involved – wood, paper, paints – being creative made me happy. From age 16, I trained as a decoration and restoration painter.
Then, eager to learn more, I studied to become a teacher, specializing in building maintenance, management and completion.
It was during this period that I first came into contact with internationals. Thanks to them, my world grew and expanded.
I took a job with a building company. As a construction planner, my day-to-day duties included preparing quotations, making cost calculations, planning projects and purchasing materials and labour.
This knowledge, combined with a natural curiosity and interest in people, makes Settle Down Support. My aim is that everyone’s house will be home. I want to help you feel welcome and feel at home in this country and in your house. So you have more energy for things that matters to you.

Personal advice and accompaniment, completely tailored for your house renovation.
I asked Marijke for her advice and expertise regarding painting my apartment. She knew clearly which information she needed from me to make preliminary calculations. After I agreed to proceed, she came and advised me regarding colour choices, placed the order for all the materials, and helped me get things started. Very soon I was equipped and confident to complete the mission. Along the way, I asked many questions, and she always took the time to clarify. I am so pleased with the result and truly would recommend her kind and professional service to anyone.
