Private nanny and childcare services in Chamonix
With its mountain scenery, lively town centre and activities for all ages, Chamonix makes a memorable family holiday. Private nanny care can help you enjoy the resort at your own pace, whether you're planning a full day on the mountain, arranging ski lessons for the children or simply looking for a little time to yourself.
Care to fit your plans
Childcare is available for babies from four weeks old through to children aged twelve. You can enquire about full-time and part-time nanny care, flexible weekly packages, evening babysitting and overnight care. Nannies can look after children in chalets, hotels and private apartments throughout the Chamonix Valley, with ski school drop-offs and pick-ups available by arrangement.
Discover Chamonix with the children
There are plenty of ways to enjoy the valley without spending every moment on skis. Younger children may enjoy the small sledging areas, while a visit to the nature and animal park in Les Houches offers a chance to spot local wildlife. Families can also consider swimming, bowling, soft play or ice skating.
For a different perspective on the mountains, the Mer de Glace train offers a scenic outing, while a horse-drawn sleigh ride can be a memorable experience. Activities should be chosen to suit the children's ages and the conditions on the day, and your nanny can help you explore suitable options.
Reliable care with a personal touch
Every family has different requirements, so arrangements can be discussed in advance around your accommodation, children's routines and holiday plans. Whether you need regular daytime support or occasional babysitting, the aim is to give parents greater flexibility while children enjoy a safe, engaging day.
When enquiring, share your location in the valley and your preferred hours so that travel and meeting arrangements can be planned. Availability varies by date and location.
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.
