The best holiday destination for us is Periyali crèche and children’s club in Zakynthos in Greece. It’s through Simpson Travel. It’s like rehab for parents. Amazing little villas that have everything you need for babies and toddlers, has own gated splash pool set in gardens around main pool. The most fantastic kids club that you can book morning or afternoon sessions. One evening they babysit while you are sent off to a really lovely restaurant somewhere on the island. Cute little pebble cove 2 min walk plus bigger sandy beach 10 minute walk.
