La Halte-Garderie Les Marmottins Childcare
Nursery for children during your ski holiday in Morzine
The nursery La Halte-Garderie Les Marmottins is a tourist structure that welcomes children from six months to five years of age during the winter season.
The nursery, managed by the Morzine Tourist Office, offers childcare for families holidaying in Morzine-Avoriaz. It has a maximum capacity of twelve children, supervised by three early years professionals.
Morzine-Avoriaz has been awarded the Famille Plus label, recognised by the French Ministry of Tourism for its family-friendly approach. The day nursery is located in a house with an outdoor garden.
The nursery welcomes children of all nationalities from six months to five years old. The premises feature a dedicated baby area (six to sixteen months) with a playroom, bottle-preparation area, changing room, and three sleeping rooms with five to six beds. There is also a space for older children (sixteen months to five years), including a playroom, activity room, changing room with toilets, and three sleeping rooms with five to six beds. A kitchen is available to prepare meals, along with a garden and outdoor playground.

PMI supervision and medical oversight:

The nursery also works under the supervision of a designated medical practitioner, who checks immunisation records and medical certificates.
