Staying visits when exDH lives far away

Does anyone have experience of arranging staying visits with exes, for their very young DC (my DD is 2)? Ex has moved 3 hours away by car and weekend-long staying visits are inevitable in the near future. Any tips on managing the practicalities and emotions of this would be really appreciated. We are on cordial terms but I don't trust him as a person. He was leading pretty much a double life of internet dating and escorts for a few months before we separated and also revealed there had been several infidelities since we first met 5 years ago. He's very selfish and although I believe he cares for our daughter, I know he'll always put his needs before everyone else's. Our divorce is nearly through and I'm trying to look to our future. I am resident parent but he has the usual visiting rights. Any tips on dealing with the situation and making it as smooth and pleasurable as possible for DD.
