Mark Warner ski holidays? With 3 kids any advice!

Just paid deposit for a holiday end of Feb in La Plagne. My DH and I are both intermediate skiers and hope to have a bit of time to ourselves to do this. Our DCs are 6, 2 and 1. The childcare is in-house. Average hotel review but sounds ok for 3 "excitable" children. Has anyone used them before and have you any tips?

Is it the chalet hotel Christina? We've been twice. Great location above the pub!

That's not sarcasm by the way. We always met back at the pub before we went up to meet the kids who were having 'high tea'.

We had loads of time to ski together.
Food was great
Childcare was good

I'm not convinced my youngest DD (aged 1 at the time), had much time out of the nursery - I wouldn't go bonkers buying kit, but it was 1 week, so I wasn't going to stress.

Yes via MW. They are very good with the little ones and with 2 under 2 it'll be great.

I was at home mum st of the time when we went so I wasn't worried about waving good bye in the morning and not seeing them until 4.30pm in fact that was part of the appeal I know that doesn't suit everyone. Mine were very happy with the nannies and everyone had fun.
