Nursery v kids club for 3 year old

[Lorraine]

Can a 3 year old do both the nursery and the kids club? She is still having the odd accident so I have booked her into the nursery for the time we are at palo brunch so we can relax at that. If she was in kids club would swing by every so often to see how she is and remind her to use the toilet. I can cancel nursery something like 4 hours before and hoping she will be completely dry in 3 weeks time but trying to cover all bases!

You really can’t swing by the kids club. You aren’t allowed inside, just to the entryway to
Check her out of the club. We took out three year old GS to the family activities in the club where we could stay with him, but not knowing anyone, he asked the CM’s to call us to come get him if he was by himself after a very short while both times we left him. CM’s won’t force a child to stay if they still want to leave after encouraging them to join in. But try it , she could love it. They will call you for accidents, they are not allowed to assist a child in the bathroom in any way.

My son will be 3.5 for our cruise and we're doing the same like you. It's a four hour cancellation window and a potty trained 3 year old can go to either, so I like having both as an option for him. My son is fully potty trained, but needs help putting his underwear/shorts back on and I know the Kid's Club will not assist. I booked the nursery for our cruise so we at least have it as an option. I also booked it in case the Kid's Club is too overwhelming for him with all the older kids running around. I'm just hoping he'll at least go to one lol.

Just remember she will need to be completely independent in the toileting process in the Club/Lab, so I recommend practicing pulling down/up pants, wiping and hand washing before your cruise.
Yes, a 3 year old can go to both so you can definitely keep the nursery bookings and use them if needed. Many 3 year olds love it in there and prefer it to the noise and busyness of the Club/Lab

One other thing to consider is the kids club is for 3-12 year olds. They have organized activities but free play is always present. Being in a space with much older kids running around and a lot of noise and space may be too much for a 3 year old to handle. Definitely keep your nursery reservations as a back up.

My then 4 year old wouldn’t stay alone in the kids club unless his older cousins were there. It is a very busy place!

Thanks everyone - reassuring to know she can do both and if she has an accident they will call you. I am going to put her in a dress to go which will make it easier. She can do it all herself but the problem is she becomes distracted and that is when accidents happen. I am fairly sure she will love it but will not think to go to the toilet!
