Our Childcare Staff

For you to relax on holiday, you want to know your children are in expert hands, being cared for in a happy and safe environment.  That's why all our nannies are all English speaking and the majority hold a DCE, NNEB, NVQ or equivalent qualification. 

Please note that we cannot allow informal supervision in our creches by nannies who are not employed by Mark Warner as this can affect the operation of the Clubs and may lead to problems of accountability and legal responsibility.

Children's Watersports & Tennis Courses

For children booked into our children's clubs, we provide a daily programme of watersports and land-based activities with free tuition.

Our superb team of instructors, alongside our childcare staff, will introduce our younger guests to sailing, windsurfing, tennis and football all with the latest junior equipment. Outside of the daily activity programme there are a number of specialist courses available, see below for full details.
