Crans-Montana has long been recognised as an ideal destination for families. From games to walks to sharing stories, there is something for everyone when you’re here on holiday.
Among the services on offer is the Croc’Montagne nursery for visitors, a professional childcare facility which allows parents visiting the resort to leave their children (between 18 months and 5 years old) for a few hours or a whole day, so that they can make the very most of their stay.
Located in the Scandia building below the Crans library, the nursery is themed around Bibi, the Crans-Montana mascot, and his world. The interior areas are carefully organised, with a nod to the Alpine landscape, and offer a setting which is perfect for play and discovery.
The nursery is run by a team of qualified professionals, who structure the day to provide a balanced mix of quiet time, free play, crafts, reading and activities tailored to the different ages and energy levels of the group. Weather permitting, children also enjoy time outdoors, always under supervision and in a safe environment.
Behind Croc’Montagne is the Fleurs des Champs Foundation, which has existed since 1937. It is an organisation which is deeply rooted in the region, which knows families, their expectations and the realities of being on holiday in the mountains.
Each child receives individual support: observation, listening and adaptation are at the heart of educational practices employed. The aim is not simply to look after children, but to support them in their development, even whilst they’re on holiday.
For children, Croc'Montagne offers a true glimpse of life in Crans-Montana. Whether it's a short outing around the building, a bit of time outside in contact with nature or an activity inspired by the alpine landscape, each moment is integrated simply into their day.
For parents, the nursery provides real flexibility: whether that’s a few hours to go skiing or stroll around the resort, or perhaps just to enjoy some time to themselves, safe in the knowledge that their child is being looked after in a caring environment.
These values provide clear direction: supporting children as they grow in a calm environment, listening to them and helping them discover new things.
Ultimately, Croc'Montagne is a support during the holidays: a place where children can find their bearings, play and discover new things in complete safety, and where parents can enjoy their day with peace of mind.
