Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Latitudes. Several hotels in this three-part resort offer childcare. That at the Latitudes in Arc 1800 is not the most comprehensive (it starts at age 4), but it gets the best reports.
Davos, Switzerland
Berghotel Schatzalp. A funicular takes you up to is comprehensively equipped four-star on the treeline, 300m above towny Davos Platz. It has its own nursery slope and creche, and is the start of the local toboggan run.
Flaine, France
Les Lindars. The heart of this dreary-looking, purpose-built resort is a pedestrian-only square that leads directly on to the nursery slopes. The hotel Les Lindars, just above it, has famously good childcare for residents.
Obergurgl, Austria
Alpina. Although it seems an excellent family destination, Obergurgl does not have notably good childcare arrangements. The in-house nursery of the smart Alpina makes good the deficit.
Oberlech, Austria
Sonnenburg. This luxurious chalet with a very impressive in-house nursery is right on the piste in the fairly peaceful mountain outpost of Oberlech, a mere cable-car ride or short drive above fashionable Lech.
Zermatt, Switzerland
Ginabelle. There is no public nursery slope at village level in this attractive resort, but the luxurious and friendly Ginabelle has its own little slope (and instructors) as well as an in-house nursery.
