Private nanny and childcare services in Courchevel

A family ski holiday in Courchevel is a great opportunity to enjoy the Three Valleys, but balancing time on the slopes with younger children's needs can take some planning. A private nanny offers flexible childcare, giving parents time to ski while their children enjoy attentive care and activities suited to their age.

Flexible childcare to suit your family

Care is available for babies from four weeks old through to children aged twelve. Options include full-time and part-time nanny care, flexible weekly packages, evening babysitting and overnight childcare.

Nannies can look after children in chalets, hotels and private apartments. Ski school drop-offs and pick-ups can also be arranged, depending on your location and schedule. You can discuss your children's routines and preferred arrangements when enquiring.

Family activities in Courchevel

There's plenty to enjoy beyond the pistes. Younger children might enjoy sledging, building snowmen or exploring the resort's play areas, while scenic mountain rides offer a chance to take in the views without skiing.

For indoor activities, Aquamotion in Courchevel Moriond has swimming pools and water-based activities. Bowling and ice skating can also provide a change of pace, depending on opening times and seasonal availability. Your nanny can help suggest suitable outings based on your children's ages and interests, as well as organise games, books and creative activities back at your accommodation.

Experienced, caring and reliable

The service was established by a mother with expertise in early years education and a passion for skiing. Its approach combines professional childcare with personal attention, with arrangements tailored to each family's needs.

The team includes experienced nannies who understand the practicalities of family ski holidays. Whether you need care around ski school, a few uninterrupted hours on the mountain or an evening babysitter, a private nanny can give you more flexibility during your stay.

Preparing for your nanny

Before travelling, check whether your accommodation provides essentials such as a cot, high chair or buggy, and discuss any additional requirements in advance.

Bring familiar items such as a favourite blanket, book or beaker to help younger children settle in. For outdoor activities, pack warm layers, waterproof clothing, suitable boots, hats and gloves, along with sunscreen and sunglasses or goggles. Baby food, nappies and other everyday essentials can generally be bought in the resort.

When enquiring, share your children's ages, accommodation details and preferred hours so that suitable arrangements can be discussed.

Childcare options and availability vary by resort and booking dates. Advance booking is recommended, particularly during school holidays and peak weeks.

What to bring

If you need baby food, nappies or anything else, there are supermarkets to provide almost everything you need and they can arrange shopping for you too.

Toys are normally kept in chalets and so are books and DVDs but they advise you to bring your child's favourites e.g. a blanket, book, beaker as they can be very comforting in a strange environment. They bring arts and crafts and books to entertain the children indoors.

Before you travel, they advise you to check with your chalet manager to find out what facilities they have to accommodate children and babies, especially if you need high chairs, cots and buggies.

Essentials to bring are: Indoor and outdoor shoes and/or slippers, waterproof jackets for play outside, boots, warm hats, gloves, scarf, sunscreen, sunglasses (even for babies) or goggles and Calpol, although there are other versions of this in resort.
