To ski or not to ski


To ski or not to ski

Winter is here and the snow has already filled up the mountains creating a strong base for the start of an exciting season ahead.

Undoubtedly we are all dreaming of the moment of hearing the bindings click and off we go.

We are checking the gear, the airlines, the transfer companies, insurance, the best restaurants and of course the après ski bars.

But if you are going out with your family the first thing you should think about is childcare.

If you don’t have this in place you don’t ski. All your dreams can become a disaster.

So if you want to ski carefree, and know that the little people behind you are having the same thrill as you are on the slopes, you need some good quality childcare.

There are many options available in family resorts, but if you want the very best quality childcare you should book early to avoid disappointment.

MERINANNIES was created  in 2003 by a mother who is a keen skier and an early years teacher and we regard ourselves experts in childcare.

We try and test resorts that are loved by adrenaline seekers but are also kind to the rest of the family. So if you are a young couple seeking the night life as well as great skiing, or bringing grandparents who need some peace and quiet, or just going for a relaxing family holiday in the snow, Merinannies will take very good care of your children and make sure you have the fun you deserve.

Merinannies qualified nannies take care of babies from 4 weeks of age to 14 years old.

You can book a day or a whole week, mornings or afternoons, full time or part time or just an evening babysitting.

Activities are planned with respect to age and interests, and there are special needs trained nannies as well as multilingual nannies and skiing expert nannies.

We offer a 10% discount in some weeks if you book before the end of November.

Call today on 07860925055 or 01858 468820

MERINANNIES ARE IN THE PINK

 

Merinannies are in the pink this winter. Not only are they celebrating 10 years in business with a new website, extended service and best childcare company award, but they have eyecatching new uniforms including a bright pink polo shirt.

These are nannies who specialise in ensuring the youngest members of the family have a wonderful snowy holiday while parents enjoy their passion for snowsports. Their hours are flexible and they are qualified to look after babies from four months old up to teenagers of 14. 

Mother-of-two Katia Koumantou is the power behind Merinannies and founded the company after her family’s first skiing holiday to Meribel when her children Joshua and Christina were four and five years old.  

“My children inspired the whole thing,” said Katia. “Skiing as a family is great fun, but sometimes it can be hard work too. I became passionate about providing the kind of care I wanted to receive myself. Merinannies are there to ensure everyone gets the most of their holiday – and it’s not about feeling guilty. Our nannies work flexible hours by arrangement so that everyone is happy.”

Nannies are qualified and experienced, many SEN trained and bilingual, CRB and reference checked, first aid qualified and come with a wealth of things for children to do whatever the age and whatever the weather.

Katia personally travels to check and handpick the resorts in which the business operates and this season has added Ischgl in the Austrian Tirol, plus the French resorts of Samoens/Morillon  to her existing resorts of Meribel, Courchevel, Val Thorens, Les Menuires, Chamonix, Megeve, St Gervais in France and St Anton in Tirol, Austria. 

The Best Childcare Company Award was presented to Katia by SnowVole, a forum for skiers by skiers, earlier this month (November).
