Appropriate support without worries
Story behind huntu
Huntu was founded to make a meaningful contribution to the community — ensuring that children with special needs can participate in society in a way that feels comfortable and positive for them.
This contribution is built on both professional knowledge gained through education and training, and practical experience from working in the field as well as personal life.
Huntu pa e Yu provides specialized guidance and support to residents of Curaçao who need extra structure, clarity, or assistance in daily life. Each guidance program is developed in consultation and tailored to the child’s individual needs, ensuring that every child receives the right level of attention and care.
We specialize in autism support, but our approach is equally suitable for any child who benefits from clear routines, calmness, and predictability.
In addition, Huntu also aims to contribute to a pleasant holiday experience for families visiting Curaçao.
While the child takes part in individual guidance sessions, parents can enjoy a moment of relaxation and peace of mind, making the holiday enjoyable for the whole family.

About Eline
On August 19, 2021, I started Foundation huntu pa e yu. While studying for my bachelor’s degree in orthopedagogy, my interest in working with people with autism increased, in particular working with children with autism and related problems. This is because I also have experience with autism in my private life. After completing the Bachelor’s in orthopedagogy , I also obtained my diploma in postgraduate autism and (random) normal giftedness. During this time, I had worked for several years in Belgium and the Netherlands in outpatient counseling and family counseling for people with autism.
In addition to guiding people, I also wanted more responsibility within the field of healthcare. I continued my Bachelor studies in orthopedagogical management in order to learn more about the theoretical side of what is involved in management and running an organization. After completing this bachelor’s degree, I have enough confidence and fortitude to take the plunge and start a new foundation in Curaçao. I want to use my passion, personal attention, structure, clarity, and perseverance while guiding people and running the foundation.
