Family Ski Holidays with Ski Famille

Planning the perfect family ski holiday can feel like a big task, but at Ski Famille we make it simple, fun, and completely stress-free. Our goal is to ensure that every member of your family, from the tiniest tot to the most adventurous teen, has a truly unforgettable time in the mountains. For over three decades, Ski Famille has been dedicated to creating ski holidays designed exclusively for families, and that’s why we’re the UK’s leading family ski holiday specialist. From in-chalet childcare to thoughtfully designed family accommodation and resorts packed with off-slope activities, every detail of your trip is tailored to families just like yours.

What makes us unique? We combine the charm and comfort of incredible ski chalets with the peace of mind that comes from knowing your children are cared for by fully qualified and experienced childcare professionals. Parents can enjoy skiing in some of the best resorts in the French Alps while children have fun, learn new skills, and make friends in a safe, nurturing environment. Whether you want to ski as a family or take a few hours for yourselves, Ski Famille has the perfect solution for you.

In-Chalet Childcare and Family-Friendly Facilities

When you book a ski holiday with Ski Famille, you’re not just booking a bed in a chalet, you’re choosing an experience designed to make life easy for families. We understand that organising a ski trip with young children can feel daunting, which is why our approach is all about convenience and flexibility. We offer in-chalet childcare so your little ones can be cared for in the comfort and security of your own chalet, without the stress of having to drop them off at a distant nursery. Our professional childcare team arrives at your chalet, bringing smiles and enthusiasm as well as everything needed to keep your children entertained and happy while you head out to the slopes.

For those staying in our chalet hotel, the experience is just as family-focused. Our hotel features a dedicated internal playroom, a fully equipped nursery, and direct access to ski school, so everything you need is under one roof. Children can enjoy a variety of age-appropriate activities, from arts and crafts to outdoor play, while parents take full advantage of their ski time. Our childcare options are designed for all ages, from babies and toddlers to older children who want to spend time with new friends. Whether you want your children to join you on the slopes or prefer them to enjoy supervised fun while you take some time for yourself, we have a plan to suit your family.

Purpose-Built Family Chalets with Space to Relax

Your accommodation is at the heart of your holiday experience, and that’s why lots of our ski chalets are purpose-built for families. Forget cramped hotel rooms, our chalets offer spacious family suites, adjoining bedrooms, and plenty of communal space where you can relax together at the end of the day. Our properties have been carefully designed with families in mind, with child-friendly features, comfortable living areas, and cosy bedrooms that feel like a true home away from home.

Most of our chalets come with modern amenities, including en-suite bathrooms, boot warmers, and inviting lounge areas where you can enjoy a glass of wine in front of the fire. Our chalets also feature play areas, toys, and books to keep children entertained when you’re not out exploring the resort. Many even have balconies with stunning mountain views, so you can wake up to the sight of snowy peaks each morning.

Mealtimes are another highlight of a Ski Famille holiday. Our catered chalets include delicious, freshly prepared meals, ensuring everyone is well-fed and happy throughout their stay. We provide family-friendly menus, early children’s high tea, and tasty options for even the fussiest eaters. Parents can look forward to three course gourmet dinners paired with quality wines, while the kids tuck into hearty, nutritious meals that keep them fueled for the slopes.

Family-Friendly Resorts with Activities for All Ages

Choosing the right resort is crucial when planning a family ski holiday, and that’s why we only operate in family-friendly ski resorts that offer the perfect mix of great skiing and exciting off-slope activities. Our resorts are carefully selected for their easy access to slopes, high-quality ski schools, and welcoming village atmosphere.

But skiing isn’t the only thing to enjoy on a family holiday in the Alps. When the children aren’t on the slopes, or if you fancy a day off skiing, there’s a world of activities waiting for you. From sledging and toboggan runs to ice skating, swimming pools, and scenic winter walks, there’s never a dull moment. Many of our resorts also have fun parks, softplay centres, and local cultural experiences to explore, so you can create magical memories both on and off the snow.

Parents who want to enjoy après-ski will find plenty of family-friendly options, including cosy cafés serving hot chocolate, mountain restaurants with incredible views, and gentle evening entertainment. You’ll never be short of things to do, no matter the age of your children.

Professional Childcare for Children Aged 4 Months to 12 Years

One of the biggest concerns for parents booking a ski holiday is finding reliable childcare, and that’s where Ski Famille really shines. Our experienced childcare team is trained to look after children from 4 months up to 12 years, giving parents complete peace of mind. We handpick our team members not just for their qualifications, but for their warmth, creativity, and genuine love for working with children.

Our childcare service is very flexible, meaning you can book as many or as few of our childcare options as you like. We offer full-day care, or options to collect your children at 12pm or 2pm, so you can ski when you want and spend quality time with your children when you choose. While you’re out enjoying the slopes, your children will be engaged in fun, age-appropriate activities such as arts and crafts, outdoor play, story time, and even mini snow adventures. For children aged 4 or above, their morning will be spent at ski school so we will drop them off and pick them up, all whilst you venture far out across the slopes.

Safety is our top priority. Every member of our team undergoes Enhanced DBS checks and receives specialist training in child development, paediatric first aid, and winter childcare best practices. With Ski Famille, you can ski with confidence knowing your children are happy, safe, and cared for by professionals who treat them like family.

Options for Families with No Childcare Needs

We know that families change over time. Perhaps your children are now teenagers who no longer need childcare, or maybe you’re a family who simply prefers to manage your own schedule without assistance. If that sounds like you, we’ve got you covered. Our sister company, Ski Vertigo, offers the same outstanding service you know and love from Ski Famille, just without the childcare element.

With Ski Vertigo, you can enjoy all the benefits of a fully catered chalet, prime locations in fantastic ski resorts, and the same attention to detail that makes Ski Famille so special, just tailored for families with older children or adults travelling together. It’s the ideal choice if you still want a family-focused holiday but no longer require our childcare services.
