Just really wanted to thank you for arranging for Mailis to look after our little boy Kit during our stay in Val Thorens earlier this month. We also enrolled him in the ESF crèche for a few days but but he hated it and cried all day 😢 When we returned from our trip to Courcheval after his day with Mailis, he was so so happy and it was great to hear about all the fun they'd been having together!I think it made huge difference having that one-to-one care. So a big thank you to you, and of course Mailis!

Valerie was truely amazing with our little girl. She made us feel so at ease leaving Arabella for the day and had constant updates about their where abouts on their various walks or swims. She was fantastic and we really hope we can reserve her again next year!

Parents de Eliott, 11mois, nous l'avons confié 6jours à Valérie pour des journées complètes 9h-16h, non sans crainte au départ car nous ne l'avons jamais confié à quelqu'un d'autre que sa nounou mais Valérie a su nous mettre en confiance et elle a très vite été adoptée par Eliott. Des sourires à son arrivée et un bébé détendu à son départ. Elle a su s'adapter à son rythme, proposer des balades variées, jouer, chanter, danser, l'accompagner dans ses siestes malgré des endormissements parfois compliqués. Elle nous donnait régulièrement de ses nouvelles et était très réactive quand nous en demandions. Les repas se passaient très bien. Elle a été très à l'écoute de nos recommandations et s'ajustait au fur et à mesure pour répondre au mieux aux besoins de notre bébé.

Une expérience très enrichissante, une belle énergie, Valérie est une nounou passionnée, attachante, bienveillante et quel bonheur de voir Eliott lui tendre les bras à son arrivée le dernier jour ! <3                                                                                                                                                                                                 - Julie Mars 2022 

Michelle was absolutely amazing. As i'm sure all parents can appreciate we were a bit apprehensive about leaving our 2 young children with a nanny we'd never met, but Michelle made us feel at ease straight away and both our children really took to her immediately. Michelle has a warm and lovely nature, easy company and a pleasure to be around. We were made to feel reassured straight away. She was really flexible and worked around our family needs and plans for the week. I would absolutely 100% recommend Michelle to look after your children.                                                                                                                    - Megan February 2022

 I would highly recommend Slyvie to care for your children whilst on holiday. She was so easy to communicate with from the beginning of enquiry. Always very clear and precise on information and instructions on how to book etc. when it came time to meet my daughter she was very warm and friendly towards her which made such an easy transition for me to leave her in Slyvie’s care. My daughter enjoyed her company tremendously and I would 100% be using her again next time we come back for a holiday!

Carlotta a été parfaite avec Arthur. Elle est douce, hyper agréable et gaie... j'ai tout de suite eu confiance en elle.

Mille mercis car grâce à Carlotta j'ai pu profiter de ma semaine de ski sereinement!

"C'est la 3ème fois que je fais appel à vos services. Nous avons été très contents des services de Valérie, elle aime bien les enfants et ceux-ci le sentent, elle s'est bien occupée des tout-petits, 6 et 13 mois et aussi des plus grands en fin de semaine. Elle a été flexible et a accepté d'avoir plusieurs enfants en fin de semaine et de les occuper (chasse au trésor). Pour moi il est important aussi d'avoir un coup de main pendant que les enfants dorment car nous sommes nombreux et elle a donné ce coup de main pour la cuisine et le balai, merci. Le contact avec elle était agréable."                                                                                      -Décembre 2021

 

"Nous avons été très satisfaits de la baby-sitter, Karla, par l'intermédiaire de SkiNanny, très souriante, très agréable et tout s'est bien passé avec les enfants. Merci"

" Pour la semaine de Noël aux Ménuires, Céline a été super pour s' occuper des jeunes enfants ou bébés matin et après-midi avec douceur et savoir-faire, nous avons été ravis, cela a permis aux mamans de skier ou de se balader et cela a beaucoup contribué à la réussite de cette semaine familiale, un grand merci

We used two nannies from Ski Nanny Val Thorens for a skiing holiday in March 2020. The nannies were excellent, really kind, experienced and reliable. They looked after the children beautifully and we felt very reassured at the level of care they provided whilst we were out skiing.

MERCI BEAUCOUP                                                                                                 - Hervé, chalet du gypse, Mars 2019, 2020, 2022 

Julie was amazing. Our 2-year-old felt comfortable with her immediately. She was prompt, communicative, professional, and amazing with the children. She had lots of creative ideas of places to take them given her familiarity with the area, and she was willing to accommodate our son's specific schedule. 

She felt like one of the family and we were really able to relax knowing our son was in her care. We would definitely book Julie again. The ski nanny website was easy to use and Sylvie was super responsive as well. The service helped make our holiday amazing.                                                                                        - Jana, February 2020

" We hired Valerie and Barbara for the time we were there. I would like to express in words how fantastic they both were. They would score top in each of the categories below and we would book them again in a heartbeat!!!

From the word go they were attentive, caring and gave us real confidence to leave for the day. Without them our holiday wouldn't have been possible. They were excellent in every way.

Please pass this feedback on to them. When we return next year we wouldn't want to use any other nannies!!"                                                - Andrew, Powder N Shine, Reberty, February 2020

" Thank you very much for your help in finding Barbara. We were very pleased to work with Barbara. She is a great nanny!

Thank you!"

- Marine, Janvier 2020" Ne voulant pas laisser ma fille de 14 mois à la garderie pendant nos vacances au ski, nous avons fait appel à l'agence Ski Nanny Val Thorens pour trouver une solution de garde.

Nous avons eu deux supers nounous, très attentionnées et très douces avec notre petite fille. Elena a su s'occuper d'elle à la perfection : luge, jouer avec elle, lui préparer ses repas.

J'ai vraiment été ravie. Il ne fait aucun doute que nous repasserons par l'agence pour nos prochaines vacances !

Merci beaucoup !"

" We have just returned from a week in Saint Martin de Belleville. We arranged our Nanny, Carlotta, through the website back in the summer. This was so easy with prompt email responses. At the last minute Sylvie also came to our rescue by providing us with a car seat which she arranged to be delivered to our chalet.

We could not have asked for a better person to look after our boisterous twin boys. Carlotta was punctual, flexible ( with our chalet being in a tiny hamlet outside of the main village creating transport issues this was essential), full of great ideas ( soft play in Les Menuires, arranging ski passes to go up on the gondola, bringing toys to play in the snow with), thoughtful ( sending me messages and photos of the boys through the day) and most importantly smiley and happy. From the moment we met her we had confidence in her and we could ski knowing the boys were not only in her excellent care but were having fun! We can not fault Carlotta and would wholeheartedly recommend her. " 

                          - Nikki, Chardon bleu in la Combe January 2020

"We couldn't have asked for a better nanny for our nearly nine month old, Michelle was flexible, reliable and full of energy. We will definitely be using Michelle again"

                             - Laura, January 2020

"Thank you so so much for everything. Pieter and Adriaan really enjoyed spending time with you Sylvie and you were brilliant with them. Hope to see you again in the future. Best wishes 🍩🍩💙💙 "

-Suzanne, January 2020 +January 2019 + March 2018

" We are always very impressed with your ski nannies.

We have now had four different nannies using skinannyvalthorens and each one has been truly excellent. We would happily rebook each one of them for the next occasion. All our children have enjoyed spending time with their nannies.

Barbara was a wonderful nanny to our 2 year old daughter for the week. They got on like a house on fire. Barbara had a lovely manner and a great sense of humour."

" Michelle was excellent, a wonderful nanny for our child who was upset when she left! They had great fun together whilst we were out skiing or just having a rest after all the daily activities.

We'd definitively book again."

" I just wanted to thank you for connecting us with Barbara, she was amazing with the girls from the start, and they were so excited when she arrived with all of her toys. It was so great that she had a child-based knowledge of the area, and took the girls to a soft play centre on some of the days - which they LOVED! She went out of her way to bring things that we had forgotten or hadn't thought of and was so flexible with timings.

Finding a good nanny is always one of the biggest things when we plan our ski holiday and you made the process so simple.

Cindy (who did a couple of evening babysitting sessions for us) was also great, on time, and really friendly. I felt at ease immediately when they both arrived and will definitely be recommending you to other friends, and no doubt I will be contacting you again in the future.

Willow still talks about Barbara now 3 months on!

Thank you so much for making our holiday as fun for the children as it was for us!

What a gem Sylvie is! Recommended by our chalet host- she was warm, friendly and very competent. My 7 and 5 year old had a great week with her and we were regularly updated throughout the day with pictures of the fun they were having off the slopes. Her English is perfect and the kids warmed to her within seconds of meeting her. I’d recommend her 100% and will not hesitate to use her a gain. Thank you Sylvie!

Nous avons été très content de Lisa. Tout s est très bien passé.

Nous vous en remercions

Un grand merci à Barbara pour cette superbe semaine avec notre poupette. Tous les jours elle arrivait avec un nouveau jeu afin que notre départ soit plus doux. Pauline était ravie de voir arriver Barbara. Elle s'est adapté en fonction du temps afin que l'on en profite un max..... Encore merci à la douce Barbara.

"Bonjour Sylvie,

Je souhaitais vous remercier pour votre aide dans la recherche de nounou. Tout s est très bien passé avec Nataliya et Elena. Compétentes et douces. C était bien pour Noah d avoir aussi les soirées avec Nataliya. A refaire !

Je garde vos coordonnées!"

Encore mille mercis pour les bons soins, Julian a passé une superbe semaine à la montagne grâce à Aurélie !

- Tine, Janvier 2018

" Given that it was our first holiday with our 11 month old son, and the first time we would be leaving him for more than one day at a time, we were quite nervous about having a nanny. But Carlotta was wonderful from the moment she arrived. She came early on the first day so that we could settle Henry with her while still getting to the lifts for 9am, and Henry immediately took to her - smiling and playing with her happily. She was flexible with her working hours, meaning we could make the most of the good weather, and she took Henry out and about twice a day so he had lots of stimulation and fresh air. She also sent me pictures of Henry throughout the day so I wouldn't worry about him. Our chalet hosts told us when she was in the chalet with him she was constantly talking to him and playing with him - I couldn't have been happier with how the week turned out. Thank you for providing such a lovely nanny!"

" Second time we spent a great week with Sylvie! Lovely to see her again and kiddos love their ski nanny!!! "

- Michelle, Montana VT January 2018

We were delighted with our experience with Sylvie, and are already trying to plan another holiday around her availability next year! She minded our 13m old for four days, also taking her 4y old brother in the afternoons and babysat some evenings when they were asleep so we really got time to enjoy a bit of grown-up time too. Sylvie was fantastic with the children and arrived every day with a big bag of tricks to keep them entertained. Would highly recommend Ski Nanny for any family with small children

- Katherine, Mont Vallon, les Menuires , April 2017

-Elise et Pierre, la Choumette, Juillet 2016

"I can highly recommend Sylvie. My 2 year old daughter warmed to her immediately and did not even cry when we left for a day of skiing. Sylvie bought toys to the house knowing that we would not have many with us which I was very pleased about. She also knew the area and took my daughter for a play in the park and a walk outside, making sure she was dressed appropriately. I also recieved text messages without any prompting letting me know my daughter had a great lunch and was now sleeping. It made me enjoy my day on the slopes and I would not hesitate to book Sylvie again. "

- Jenny, January 2016

"We were so pleased with our decision to hire Sylvie to look after our 4 and 6 year old daughters. She was punctual, efficient getting the kids ready, sourced fun (free) activities for them with her local knowledge and brought games, craft and toys to entertain. The girls loved spending time with her and we were able to relax and enjoy our holiday knowing they were in safe hands. When the weather was right she made sure they got outside playtime. She was flexible to fit in with our needs too concerning hours. We would not hesitate to recommend Sylvie for your child care needs."

"You were fabulous with Becky, you saved our holidays"

- Christine, January 2015

Carlotta was incredible. More than we could have hoped for! She was so kind, engaged and helpful. She went above and beyond to be helpful, even picking up diapers for us in town when the ski resort was out of them. She's incredible and we wish she could have come home with us!

                         - Michaelfitz december 2021

" Michelle looked after our two young boys during Christmas week and was absolutely brilliant. They warmed to her straight away, settling into games, hide-and-seek and snow play really easily. She was very flexible and fitted into our busy chalet of 18 people very well. We would definitely recommend Michelle to any family coming to Val Thorens."   Vicky, December 2019

"We were very satisfied with having Sylvie as a nanny for our children. Together with 2 other nannies Sylvie looked after 10 children, aged 1-8 years. We felt very comfortable leaving the children with her and we fast got the impression that they are in safe hands. She is very organized and quickly understood what each child's need and personality was. Sylvie was very active and played with the children in a nice way. She was also very flexible with the time and offered herself to look after an evening although this wasn't booked in advance. We can highly and without hesitation recommend Sylvie as a nanny."

"Sylvie, for the second time we work together - it is a pleasure.

Michelle and Tamar were perfect! The kids were very happy. They arrived every day on time and immediately took the kids and let us go off.

Even though the chalet was in a distant place, the kids were not bored playing in and also got to play in the snow.

The kids were sad to say goodbye and so were us.

You were also available to us for questions and ideas - thank you for letting us have a great ski vacation."

"Sylvie, thank you very very much for this week!! You gave us peaceful time and we felt that our kids are in good hands 💕💕❤❤"

Barbara was absolutely brilliant with our little boy. She emailed us in advance of our holiday to find out more about him, came equipped with toys (which instantly won him over) on the first day, and found something fun for him to do each day of our holiday. She knew the resort well, had lots of energy, and was very good at distracting him the few times he grumbled. I felt completely comfortable leaving him with her. Highly, highly recommend.

We've had lots of ski childcare in the past; Barbara was by far the best.

                                                                                                                                              - Katherine, Power N Shine, February 2020

" We would highly recommend the services of Skinanny (Sylvie) and our Nanny Valarie. Valarie looked after two, 2 year olds for the week and she was extremely punctual, professional, flexible (insert positive adjectives at will!) and has a great way with the kids. They carryied out various activities during the week including snow free play, art crafts etc... The kids were extremely as ease in her presence and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Valarie..."

We were so lucky to have found Melanie, I can not express enough how wonderful she was. Chester loves her from the moment she arrived and our minds were at rest that he was safe, comfortable and being well looked after. She was such a lovely and kind person too!

We are so glad we found your agency and will definitely be using again when we return.

Thank you for all your help!                             - Ruby, March 2022

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     

Valerie exceeded all of our expectations and was absolutely excellent. It was such a comfort to know our daughter was in such great hands. She took the perfect approach and top class care of our daughter. We would highly recommend her services and look forward to booking in again next year. Thank you so much this service really made our holiday amazing.
