The nursery: for toddlers under 30 months old
Whether you're travelling for the first, second or third time with your child aged between 3 and 30 months, the nursery at esf Les Menuires is still a good idea. During your week's holiday, your child can be looked after by qualified professionals for a choice of 6 half-days or 6 days (8.45am - 12pm, 1.45pm - 5pm).
The hours spent in the La Croisette nursery will allow your child to have fun and rest alongside other children of his or her age. Several early-learning activities will be on the programme, as well as nap times, which are essential for their well-being. Several beds are available on site for this purpose.

From the age of 31 months to 5 years, children can then join one of the two Kids Clubs at esf Les Menuires, which operate on the same principle as the nursery (6 half-days or 6 days). Located at La Croisette and Les Bruyères, these PMI-approved Kids Clubs are also run by qualified professionals, such as nurse entertainers.
Children can enjoy a wide range of indoor and outdoor activities, including snowshoeing, sledging and orienteering. On-site play areas will give your child unforgettable moments.
If you wish, you can also sign them up for lunchtime care so they can enjoy a balanced meal at Club Piou Piou. So they can enjoy an uninterrupted day with their friends! And for a snack, children are offered cakes during the afternoon.

Ski lessons for children from the age of 2 and a half
At the Kids Club, children experience a real awakening to nature in the snow and the mountain environment. If they want to go even further, they can also learn to ski from the age of 2 and a half or 3 with specialist esf instructors. Toddlers are welcomed in a secure outdoor area, decorated with a number of mascots.
From Piou Piou to Sifflote level, children can take advantage of the "6 group lessons" package to discover and learn to ski gently. The esf instructors in charge of the children are used to working with small children and will therefore be able to create a friendly and reassuring atmosphere throughout their learning process.
At the end of the week's skiing, your child will receive a pretty medal as a reward. Enough to make them want to collect them over the years!
