Snowbabies - experienced in quality childcare - Tignes & Val d'Isere, France
 
Baby equipment hire
 
We understand that travelling abroad with children is becoming increasingly difficult with the weight limits set by airlines and the limited space in cars and transfer vehicles – not to mention the hassle - which is why we now offer a service in resort to make your journeys a little easier.    

This service is open to everyone, whether they have booked a nanny with us or not, however families booking a full time Snowbabies nanny will have the FREE use of a buggy, sledges and of course toys!    

We have a broad selection of items which you can pre-order before travelling. One of our nannies will then bring the hired equipment to you upon your arrival in resort and retrieve it on the morning of your departure; minimising your packing and luggage and maximising your holiday experience.    

Items can be hired as a complete package or as individual articles; naturally, all will be clean and in full working order.
