❓ Childcare in Méribel – FAQs
Do you offer evening babysitting in Méribel?
Yes, we offer evening babysitting at the same hourly rate.
Can I book childcare last minute?
It’s risky but yes — many families book while already in resort, subject to nanny availability.
Will the nanny come to our chalet or apartment?
Yes, all childcare takes place in your accommodation unless it is a short booking and you would prefer the children to be out and about.
Can one nanny look after multiple children?
Yes, depending on ages and numbers. Larger groups may require more than one nanny. Our ratios are as follows:
1 nanny for 1 baby under 6 months
1 nanny for 2 children under 2 years
1 nanny for 3 children aged 3+
1 nanny for 4 children aged 4+
While we follow standard childcare ratios as a guideline, we understand that every family is different and are happy to consider individual circumstances — such as additional adults being present — allowing for a more tailored approach.
Do you cover ski school drop-offs and pick-ups?
Yes, many nannies can assist with ski school routines.
