Skiing as a family is a magical experience, but why don’t you let us do the planning, leaving you to have the fun. Whether your children are skiers or non-skiers, babies or school age, our comprehensive childcare programme from 4 months, superb nannies, recommended ski schools and evening crèche, make for a relaxing holiday all round.
*All childcare must be pre-booked at an additional cost prior to your holiday
Family skiing holidays take some planning and with that in mind we have selected 5 of our chalet hotels as the best for families in France and Austria. Book an escape over Christmas, New Year, February half term or Easter and enjoy a magical snowy getaway with the whole family. We want to make it easy for the whole family in these hotels and resorts, so we’ve secured ski school places for your children with our recommended ski schools, we’ve arranged our childcare service so that it dovetails with ski school times enabling our nannies to drop off and collect for a supervised lunch. High tea is served at 5pm for the younger children and in the evenings we run a supervised evening listening service allowing parents to have the evenings to themselves.
Our family chalet hotels are fully equipped, with in-house crèches full of toys and fun, plus qualified nannies who offer a ski school drop off and pick up service so parents can make the most of their day out on the slopes.
All our childcare staff are professional and hold either a DCE, NNEB, NVQ or equivalent qualification or have at least 2 years relevant experience. Due to the popularity of our children's clubs, pre-booking all childcare is essential at the time of booking.
Our Baby Clubs provide a warm, homely and secure environment. We provide a keyworker so the little ones are soon settled and contented. Your baby’s day is organised to fit in with their needs and, wherever possible, to your times for naps and feeds. So when your holiday’s over, you’ll hopefully be able to slip back into your normal routine.

Let our childcare staff do the ski school run. Our childcare team will drop your children off and pick them up when it's over. They'll ensure they're settled into their class and collect them for lunch with the Kidz Club back at your chalet hotel. If they're attending a full day ski class, at the end of the day, it's back to the chalet hotel for tea.
We can only take children to/from the Mark Warner recommended ski school.
