mjkacmom Posted September 10, 2018 #3 Share Posted September 10, 2018 I think the Escape is the only NCL ship with a nursery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruiser_1977 Posted September 10, 2018 #4 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Here is some information on the Guppies program. It does look as if it's only available on the Escape and also is fee based. https://www.ncl.com/why-cruise-norwegian/family-cruises/youth-programs#guppies "Otherwise, Norwegian Cruise Line does not provide one-on-one care or babysitting on any ship." - https://www.ncl.com/why-cruise-norwegian/family-cruises/youth-programs/faq Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweetnspicy Posted September 11, 2018 #6 Share Posted September 11, 2018 Their doesn't seem to be a program for kids under 3 unless you are on the Escape. Splash Academy Guppies: 6 months – 3 years (daily activities are offered for babies with their parents) Turtles: 3 – 5 year olds Seals 6 – 9 year olds Dolphins: 10 – 12 years old (6 – 12 year olds in low season) Entourage: 13 – 17 year olds Although Guppies are part of Splash Academy and hosted by the Early Years Coordinator, the program requires a parent to be in attendance. Guppies does not offer a drop off option. The minimum age eligible for Splash Academy is 3 years old at the time of sailing, based on the child's date of birth, according to their birth certificate or passport reflected on the ships manifest. **Refer to FAQ What do I need to know about the 10-12 year old parent sign-out authorization? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitkat343 Posted September 11, 2018 #7 Share Posted September 11, 2018 Your options for free drop off care for a 2year old are p and o, carnival and Cunard. All Disney ships, most new/refurbished royal Caribbean ships and ncl escape offer a fee based nursery, but availability is not guaranteed. Carnival and Cunard will change diapers, but P and o requires parents to stay onboard to change diapers if necessary, and Cunard does not allow parents to go off the ship for excursions and leave their kids behind (the clubs aren’t actually open mornings on sea days). We always take our kids on excursions so this didn’t matter to us but wanted to note it in case it affects your planning. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
