Child care bookings
At Ski Adventures we welcome children, and we aim to make their holiday are enjoyable as possible. Happy children = happy adults!
This season we are able to provide 2 resident child carers who can look after your children in and around the chalets at Les Granges (plus take older children on trips elsewhere). They can also collect children from ski school, arrange their lunch and look after them in the afternoons. Please note that we cannot provide childcare on Saturdays (changeover day).
The number of children looked after by each child carer ranges from 1 baby under 12 months to up to 4 5+ year olds. For families with more than 1 child requiring child care there is a substantial discount for the second and subsequent children (except babies under 12 months). Once we have details of your requirements we will get back to you with a definite costing.
Our child carers have relevant qualifications (but not necessarily NNEB level) and experience in childcare. They are are carefully trained and supervised by us, and we endeavour to cater as precisely as possible for your childrens needs.
We have a good number of toys, games, creative play materials, etc. available, and we try to ensure that the children are taken out to play outside the chalets at least once a day (depending on weather). There are plenty of safe, fun snowy areas around the chalets for sliding, snowballs and snowmen.
Most types of nappies, bottled baby food, wipes etc. available in the UK can be purchased locally. Please let us know if you would like us to get any supplies for when you arrive, by email at least a week in advance. Prices are more or less the same as in the UK.
Baby-sitting can be arranged on the chalet staff night off - price dependent on age and number of children.
Meals can be provided - all types of dietary requirements can be catered
for provided we are informed in advance.
