Creche in Bansko?

Been to Bansko several times and never needed or noticed a creche. I heard a rumour that their is one at the top gondola station. Has anyone seen one, used one or have any views on them.

If not, anyone fancy babysitting my 14 month old son for a few hours on 24th, 25th 26th of Jan?

Do you mean that the parents weren't happy with the creche or
the creche weren't happy with the parents?

Is there a creche at the Keplinski as well then?

Hi Steve

the hotel kempinski normally only look after their own but welcome outsiders, their is another down the road, but can't remember the name, sorry, best to book soon as you get there, let me no just before you come out again to remind me, ill look into it more for you. no worries and im not on commission. Very Happy

Is there no family you could leave the child with back in Britain?

It seems unfair on the child to make them spend 3 hours checking in at an airport, 4 hours on an uncomfortable noisy plane, 2 to 3 hour transfer from airport to Bansko... to then be left with strange people, in a strange place in conditions completely different to that they face at home... to then return repeating the process a week later. Nice for the child eh?!?

Wouldnt it be better for the child to be left in safe ...

Wouldnt it be better for the child to be left in safe surroundings somewhere they know with someone they know... or better still put the child first and your own need to ski, second - and wait until the child is old enough to come with you?

I feel for the McCanns but if theyd have thought about the kids first and not left them in an empty flat all on their own nothing would have happened to poor Madelaine.

We all love ski-ing, hence the reason we read these boards - but surely your own childs well being is more important?

Just a thought...
