Get in touch with the resort hotel that you are considering and get the details on how long their baby sitters have been with the company, do they know basic first aid and do you pay direct or does the fee get added to the bill.
Get the right room: Make sure the room which you want is available. Having a mini-kitchen may be important so you can make sure the kids get a snack when they want one, maybe a tub as well as a shower is important for bathing the children.
Remember that the vacation is for everybody now so get a room with a balcony or patio so you can sit in the evenings without waking the kids.
