What’s the latest for SnowBugs?

Great news! We have now opened all of the diaries for child care with SnowBugs for winter 2014/2015!

Some of the important dates we have already noted down are:

Sunday 14^th December – SnowBugs is officially open (along with every lift in the 3 valleys!)

December 20^th – January 4^th is the Christmas and New Year school holidays.

Wednesday 24^th December is (obviously) Christmas Eve… but as it’s a Wednesday it could be the day off for your chalet hosts… It’s best to check with your ski operator or chalet company on this and book your babysitting in immediately - we’ve only got 4 spaces left!

February 14^th – 22^nd is the Spring Half Term school break

March 28^th – April 19^th is Easter Half Term – Check your local area for when schools will be closed for your family

Monday 6^th April – La Tania Charity Family Fête! This year In addition to the 3 Valleys Charity Day event there will be a family based event held in La Tania village during the day. There will be games and fun things for the kids (and parents!) to do so if you’re here that week try and keep some time free that day to join in the fun. See you there! You can get all the latest here 

Wednesday 8^th April - 3 Valleys Charity Day in Méribel Village

We already have limited availability for half term weeks; as usual things get crazy very early on for these weeks in particular… Get in touch now for the last spaces for New Year’s week and the first week of Easter especially.

Some families have been lucky and already secured places for February Half Term week but I’m afraid we don’t have any day time care left now.

BUT don’t panic because we DO have babysitting times available for all of these weeks so you can still have a great evening out with the adults. Make sure you get in there quick! As you don’t have to secure a whole week with us to book an evening of babysitting (we just ask for a minimum booking of 4 hours) you can imagine we get VERY busy rather quickly. 

For winter 2014 / 2015 you will be pleased to hear we will have some returning nannies – once we’ve got everyone sorted and all the things in place that we require nannies to have to work with SnowBugs (like a DBS check, paediatric first-aid training and insurance) there will be a big announcement where you will be able to (almost) meet them all!

And whilst we’re on the subject of big announcements…

Our brilliant Nanny Della unfortunately won’t be returning this winter…. Instead she will be off having a brilliant time…. With her very own little SnowBug…!! So pleased to say she is expecting her first child with husband Stevie!! Félicitations!!! I just can’t wait to meet the lovely new baby and wish all three of you lots and lots of happiness xx

So, to enquire about booking a nanny for your little ones during the winter please just complete our Child Care Enquiry Form. It will ask a few details on your stay and give you a space at the bottom to write any questions or specific needs you might have. Please be as detailed as possible so I can get to know exactly what your needs are and how we will be able to help you on your holidays.  

But if you would prefer to chat on the phone you can reach me on my UK number which is +447908 748 262 or French mobile on +33 616 973 601.

Maybe you’re not even sure where in the 3 Valleys you will be staying yet!? We cover the whole of Méribel, Courchevel and La Tania so wherever you go we can help! If you need any recommendations we should be able to help with that too as we’ve got lots of chalet friends across the valleys featured on our SnowBugs website.

And don't froget that you can keep up to date with everything going on at SnowBugs by visiting us on FACEBOOK, TWITTER, PINTEREST, GOOGLE+ or our WEBSITE
