Turoa Yeti Kids' Centre
Turoa Yeti Kids' Centre is a fully licensed childcare facility for children 2-5 years. The youngest members of your family will have a fun-filled day at the snow and can even learn to ski while you enjoy skiing or riding the slopes at Turoa. Services are presently available Thursday-Monday only as our hardworking educator needs an odd day off. If you know of any qualified Early Childhood Educators that want to join our team, we would love to talk to them as this will allow us to run a 7 day service.

Yeti Cubs
Yeti Cubs is a licensed childcare option for 2-5 year olds. It will be held within the boundaries of the Turoa Yeti Kids' Centre, allowing children to play in the snow within the fenced area outside the Centre and inside our warm building.
Yeti Skiwee
Licensed childcare for 3-5 year-olds with a beginner ski lesson and ski rental included. Yeti Skiwee gives young children the opportunity to experience skiing at a pace suited to their age group and without the pressure of remaining on snow for a full 2 hour group lesson.
Yeti Skiwee lessons will generally be 1 to 2 hours in total held in two sessions; one in the morning and one in the afternoon. Session length will be determined by staff according to children's energy levels and weather consideration. Yeti Skiwee lessons are beginner only. Private lessons for more advanced skiers can be arranged with pick-up and drop-off at the Turoa Yeti Kids' Centre. (For private lesson costs and booking proceedure please check out our private lessons page)

Bookings
We are able to take taking bookings until 12 October.
Please Note: To make the Skiwee booking process more efficient when booking please ensure you tell customer services your child's height, weight and shoe size. This will allow the kids' centre staff to organise ski and boot rental for you child in advance.
It is absolutely essential that parents are on time to pick up children at the end of the day as lateness may put us in violation of our license. A penalty fee of $20 per each 10 minutes will be applied if children are not picked up on time.
