Childcare

We know that parents skiing with children can only relax and enjoy their ski holiday when they are sure that their children are safe, happy and well looked after. So we have created chalet-based childcare to cater for babies from a few months old to adventurous teenage skiers with options to suit all families.

Our staff are warm and caring with excellent experience or qualifications. They genuinely enjoy entertaining and caring for children and it is their enthusiasm that ensures all our guests have a wonderful holiday. All staff are fully trained and most staff are first aid trained. Skiing activities are all with professionally qualified ESF instructors supported by our unique Ski School Helpers for younger children. Our childcare has long been highly praised by the press.

Childcare Prices

Apart from flexible options, prices are per child for 6 days childcare including lunch & ski lessons for children aged 4+. All are inclusive of ski lessons and lunch where applicable.  Lift passes are not included.  Please note that if a child does not complete a week in lessons or childcare, for whatever reasons, there will be no refunds. During peak school holiday weeks, children’s ski lessons may be moved from the morning to the afternoon in Reberty on the advice of the ESF ski school. This is to ensure that the correct ratio of children to instructors is respected and children have the best possible experience in their lessons. In this instance, our normal afternoon childcare activities will take place in the morning.
