Meribel Nanny & Childcare Services | Merinannies

Merinannies has been providing professional nanny and childcare services in Meribel since 2003 — making us the longest-standing childcare provider in the resort. We know Meribel inside out, and we're here to make your family's ski holiday as relaxed and enjoyable as possible.

What Our Nannies Can Do in Meribel

There are many activities to choose from in Meribel from swimming, to bowling, soft play, inner tubing (whizz down the slopes in an inflatable ring), ice skating, indoor climbing, sledging ( just grab your sledge and head for the nearest snow covered hill), panoramic helicopter flights to sit back and absorb the beauty of the mountains, husky sledging and of course lots of picturesque walks and bubble rides. In particular our Merinannies love to take kids of all ages up on the Rhodos bubble from La Chaudanne to the top.

This brings you out at the beginner ski area of Meribel, but there is a very pretty walking trail through the forest and it is beautiful. There, the nannies play hide and seek, treasure hunt, or simply pick up pinecones and check out the animal tracks.

For under 5’s, there is a free lift pass you can get up and down on the bubble, also from Les Allues you can take it up to Meribel centre. In Meribel centre there are lovely cafes and restaurants to choose from for a bite of lunch or hot chocolate, or you can take the free shuttle bus up to the Rond Point des Pistes. The Rond Point is a great area for children, there is a gentle slope for bumboarding, sledging, or building a snowman. There is also La Rond Pont restaurant. There is also a free magic carpet, so they can get back up the slope easily.
