Customer Feedback

What a lovely email to receive today!

"Many thanks for the email. Our ‘Angels’ did a great job for us and the kids last year in Meribel, but alas in February we will be heading off to Canada rather than the Alps.

We would have had no hesitation booking with you again in the future and would highly recommend your agency to our friends.

Hope you have a good season."

Welcomes Rachel to the team

Hi, My name is Rachel. I am an experienced childcare specialist with over 10 years in the field!! This isn't my first season and I just love the Alps and am really looking forward to the winter ahead as a Snow Angel Nanny!

I have worked with children and babies of all ages and find it the most rewarding job. I just love to get involved in all the possible activities, sledging, snowmen building, treasure hunts, singing,.....I like to think I am still a child at heart myself! I get so much satisfaction from ensuring the children's holidays are full of fun and games! At the same time giving the parents the piece of mind that their children are being cared for by a great, qualified and experienced nanny.

I can't wait to meet you,l the great families I will be working with over the season and to share with you my amazing alpine environment. I hope to help make this the best holiday yet for you all!

Welcomes Lorraine back onto the team for Tignes!

Hello. I’m Lorraine and I hope I can be of help by providing a quality childcare service for Snow Angel Nannies whilst you enjoy the snowsports in Tignes. I have lots of experience with both small and older children, and have recently spent 2 winter seasons in the Alps (and one several years ago running a small chalet) I love being with children and helping families enjoy their holiday by taking care of the children, leaving you to enjoy Tignes to the full. Working with children is brilliant, which is why I have spent the majority of my working life in a school setting. My teaching background and experience of children of all ages has given me a sound knowledge of children’s needs, and I love finding interesting activities to do both indoors and outside.

I have also looked after friends' babies and children, and currently have 2 small godchildren aged 3 and 5 years who I love spending time with. I know Tignes very well indeed (holidayed in Tignes since 1986!) which means I can add real value by being able to offer lots of additional information about what Tignes has in terms of activities, shops, restaurants and skiing.

Skiing holidays can be a huge success for familie

Skiing holidays can be a huge success for families with children of all ages. Careful planning is necessary however to ensure that everyone has a good time and that parents holidays are not ruined by anxieties about childcare. The ideal solution is a personal family nanny, and in some resorts it is no longer necessary to take your own as local organisations such as Snow Angel Nannies in Les Deux Alps, Alpe d'Huez, La Tania, Courchevel, Meribel and Tignes will supply a suitably qualified nanny.

Having a private nanny to look after a baby means that parents can ski with easy minds. Nannies should be qualified and CRB checked and should also have a first aid qualification. The nanny will also be able to bring the baby to meet up with parents in a suitable cafe at the bottom of the slopes so that the family have extra time together and parents can reassured that all is well with the baby.

Toddlers are also best entertained by a nanny who can give them plenty of individual attention. The nanny can take your toddler out to play in the snow for as long as suits that child: they do not have to fit in with the activities planned for a group which can result in one child being cold and fed up before the session ends, whilst another had to come in before he'd finished having fun!

Older children can be dressed up for ski school, delivered there, and fetched at the end of the session by their nanny. This solves the problem of different ski school times for adults and children or time limited parental skiing. A nanny can bring older children to rendezvous with parents at mountain restaurants for lunch, or to the nursery slopes for a family ski session.

Key things to remember to take on a family ski holiday include favourite toys, a suitable buggy for babies or toddlers, and - crucially - plenty of warm, waterproof clothing including hats and gloves, sunglasses etc.

Key things to look for in a resort include suitable nursery slopes for children 4 years and above, a good child friendly ski school such as the European Ski and Snowboard School in Les Deux Alpes. Accommodation available close to the slopes, plenty of spaces for sledging/snowman building....does your chalet have a snow filled garden? Child friendly resorts include Alpe d'Huez, Les Deux Alpes, Tignes and The 3 valleys.

key things to look for in a nanny service include the qualifications of the nannies, CRB checking, First aid training. Flexibility is also an advantage - will the nanny arrive early/late to suit your plans for the day, and will they fin in with your wishes to bring the children to meet you for lunches/hot chocolates? Will the nanny, if you wish, take over the task of getting children dressed up for ski school and deliver/collect them? Are the pre-booking arrangements satisfactory? can you meet your nanny the day you arrive to discuss your child or children's individual needs?

Snow Angel Nannies

The weather is looking fantastic for the weekend here in les Deux Alpes....skiing, mountain biking, hiking, climbing and many more activities planned!

The summer season is now well underway and skiing this morning on the glacier was amazing......I will report on the biking soon!
