Globetrotters: 4 months – 2 years

What to expect from Globetrotters

As childcare experts we recognise that there is a huge range in development and needs for children aged 2 and under. So that is why we usually separate our Globetrotters into two groups – keeping the littlest guests from 4months to approximately 18-20 months together with a ratio of 1:2 and the slightly older ones 20 months+ together with a ratio of 1:3.

• Routines rock - We fully understand and respect the importance of following infants routines and creating an environment where all aspects of their care can be provided to help them settle quickly. Our highly trained childcare team will get to know your child’s routine and follow it as closely as possible.
• Nap time - We ensure all clubs have a specially designed sleep room so your little ones can settle down in the day for a much-needed nap!
• Happy tummies -We understand full tummies are important! We provide delicious healthy snacks throughout the day as well as a nutritious lunch prepared by the hotel chefs. Yum!
• Communication is key - Parents will be kept informed, and children reassured if they are unsettled.
• Little extras - Purees can be provided, each club has a dedicated nappy changing area, nappies are provided during club time
