Maui Child Care

What to do with the kids when you need to "get away" on your Maui getaway? You asked, here's our recommendations...

One of the top questions that travelers making their way to Maui with their youngsters ask is, "What do we do with the little ones if we want to get away for a few hours?".

Some resorts have a referral list to PATCH (people attentive to children) certified individuals who will come to your hotel and watch the kids one on one. This type of service can come in handy if you're planning on a late night and want the peeps in bed before you come back, or if one of the little guys is a little under the weather.

Other resorts may have on-site daycare centers that offer fun and stimulating activities for the kids. This is an awesome solution if your resort offers this type of service. Unfortunately, many resorts are not equipped to do so...ask if the one you are planning on staying at does.

If you're staying at a condo or bed and breakfast (as a lot of families do because of the more "home-like" atmosphere that they provide--chances are that you're on your own for childcare.

What to do? What to do? Movies? Dinner? Open-bar snorkel? Watching the sunset with your partner without keeping one eye on your two-year-old-sand-monster the whole time? Never fear...there is still hope!

Check out Maui Playcare. They are located right in the heart of South Maui--near the majority of condos, resorts and grown-up hotspots. They offer tons of safe, fun entertainment for kids.
