Your child is cared for & nurtured

We have chosen carers that we trust with our own children. Montessori inspired with a focus on nature play.

Mind the Mom understands that in order for you to get the most out of our mother and child yoga retreat there must be a balance of time for yourself, and with your child. Our experienced child-care team is ready to welcome your little one during the morning sessions where you will partake in yoga, a relaxation treatment, or a quiet rest. 

Childcare is available from 9-13h daily

It is available for children of all ages.

We pride ourselves on creating connections between our childcare team and your child, and so each childminder will work with a maximum of 3 children, depending on their age. 

For infants younger than 18 months the staff-to-child ratio is 1:1 to ensure that their meal and sleep routines can be respected. 

Our youngest guests under 1 will also enjoy more in-arms time for comfort and connection.

Age-appropriate creative workshops will be held throughout the morning

Your child will enjoy sensory and creative play through natural playdough, arts and crafts, a mud kitchen, and exploring the natural beauty of the Algarve. A trip to the beach lets your child take in Portugal’s spectacular coastline. 

Meals are included for both you and your child

We happily provide food for all stages of the eating journey, including weaning. Our kid-friendly (and healthy!) dishes are designed to nourish and fuel your bodies so you can both get the most out of your time at Mind the Mom. We are also diligent about creating a food-allergy-friendly menu if needed. 

After brunch, your child will join you for the remainder of the day’s activities

Take part in Mom & Child yoga, family workshops, or explore the villa. This time spent with your child is bonding time where you can both take part in new experiences and growth. You’ve come to Mind the Mom to relax and rejuvenate, and our included tailor-made childcare makes it easy to do so.

Our childcare team is here to make sure that you have a relaxing holiday with your child

We are ready to be an integral part of you being able to savour your time in the morning, knowing that your child is being well cared for, making friends, and gaining new experiences.
