Hey there, hi there, Nicole! Welcome aboard!
Disney Cruise Line has some of the most comprehensive programs for children I've ever seen at sea. From
youth clubs that operate all day long, featuring age-appropriate activities and fun, to actual nursery care, you'll find that no matter what your child's age, there is some type of childcare.
The
"it's a small world" nursery! offers quality care from expert Disney cast members for children ages 6 months to 3 years (the minimum age on some itineraries is 1 year old). They have activities, they can feed and change your little one, and even supervise during nap time. Nicole, I cannot recommend enough that you book your nursery time in advance. It's a smaller facility, with an additional fee, and it can get really busy. You'll want to try to secure your spot before you board.
Disney's Oceaneer Club and
Disney's Oceaneer Lab give kids ages 3-12 a space to call their own. With activities, dance parties, character interaction, and much more, you do not need a reservation for kids here. You can drop them off any time during operating hours - which is usually from 9 AM until midnight. There is no additional fee for the kids to go and enjoy the activities, so go and enjoy some
adult-exclusive dining or one of the many
adult-only lounges.
I hope your planning from here on out is smooth sailing, Nicole!
