At skiScandinavia we strive to create relaxing family ski holidays, which is why we offer complimentary childcare services for children age 4-8 years old at SkiStar Lodge Trysil during February Half Term and Easter school holidays.
How it works
Our complimentary childcare is run by our passionate skiScandinavia nannies and usually entails a mixture of indoor and outdoor play. You drop your children off at the assigned point at the start of each session and once everyone is all set, the nannies and children will start their morning/afternoon of activities and games based on the children's ages. At the end of each session you will collect your children from the assigned point and the nannies will let you know how the session has been.
As per UK guidelines, group sizes and child to carer ratios are based on the age of the children to ensure the best possible care is given. Our skiScandinavia childcare team are DBS checked (or Scandinavian equivalent) to give you complete peace of mind for the most relaxing holiday. Because of this, group sizes are limited so we suggest you let us know as early as possible about your childcare needs when you book.
