Scott Dunn have always dedicated themselves to making sure everyone in your family has a wonderful holiday, regardless of abilities. In-line with that philosophy, they’ve now partnered with SENNIES, a Special Educational Needs (SEN) childcare service that helps source and train SEN childcarers.
This exciting new partnership means that Scott Dunn Explorers Kids Clubs now offer 1:1 childcare support for children with additional or special needs.
How does this work in practice? Take a look at the Hodge’s family experience of SENNIES at Scott Dunn Explorers Kids Club on their recent family trip to Daios Cove, Crete.
Keeping kids and parents happy for over 30 years
It’s hard to believe Scott Dunn Explorers Kids Clubs are over 30 years old, because they seem so innovative. Although it’s more likely their approach to childcare was simply way ahead of its time in 1992 and few other kids clubs have caught up, even now.
Knowing your children are in safe hands is naturally very reassuring. However, they’re on holiday too, so you want them to have fresh experiences, make friends, learn new skills and enjoy every minute they’re away from you. That’s what Scott Dunn want for your kids too. So of course they’ll be safe and well cared for by experienced professionals. But they’ll also be returned to you as happy as can be, desperate to tell you what they’ve been up to and almost certainly ready to do it all over again tomorrow.

There’s an Explorers Kids Club made for your kids
Childcare from 4 months to 11+ years is a tall order, but Scott Dunn rise to the occasion with kids clubs thoughtfully designed for different ages groups.
- Globetrotters is available for babies and toddlers from 4 months to 2 years at all Scott Dunn partner resorts. It offers a 2:1 carer ratio in a nurturing environment where children’s own routines are always respected.
- Adventurers for 3 to 4 year olds gives kids the freedom to explore a little independence under the supervision of highly trained Scott Dunn staff.
- Making new friends, exploring and having boundless fun is what Voyagers for 5 to 7 year olds is all about.
- Pioneers encourages independence and builds confidence in 7 to 11 year olds.
- For 11+, Crew activity programmes cover an astonishing range of land and water sports, as well as letting kids hang with friends, be part of a team and learn new skills.
Trust in Scott Dunn staff training, it’s the best
As well as being qualified professionals, all childcare staff are also trained by Scott Dunn. So not only do they have a reassuring level of expertise and experience, their care reflects the exceptionally high standards families take for granted on any Scott Dunn holiday.
The ultimate accolade is when a parent remarks that staff care for children as if they were their own, and that has been said about the Scott Dunn childcare team on more than one occasion.
However, in addition to being warm and loving, great fun and filled with energy, staff are also fully up-to-date and trained in practicalities like first aid, water safety and Covid-19 precautions. So of course your children will be happy – they’re right at the heart of a child-centred environment where that’s the priority – but they’ll also be safe and secure. Plus, you’ll know exactly how they are and what they’ve been up to, because keeping parents in the loop is another skill all Scott Dunn staff have to master.

What may surprise you just a little, is the sense of place that’s part of each club and how much your kids learn about where they’re on holiday through play, experiences and carefully planned trips, or even just time on the beach.
