We went to la plagne with mark warner the first week of the Easter holidays with a 3 and 7 year old (first time skiing for both).
The child care/ski school was amazing. We dropped the children off at 9am fully kitted out - in the groups, the ski nannies took them to ski school (about a 10 min walk for them in ski boots). The children got picked up and brought back to the hotel and given lunch (we chose from a menu the night before). They would do lots of fun activities in the afternoon - sledging, bubble rides, snow angels and treasure hunts. We took our 7 year old out skiing some afternoons.
They have a kids tea at 5pm - which is fab as my kids are used to eating early (there are other times they can have dinner).
Then at 7.30 you can drop the kids at 'movie night' where you can specify a bedtime. My 3 year old would just head straight to the little beds they set up for them and go to sleep. Then we would have dinner in the hotel, pick the kids up and head back to the room. You do have to sit on big tables with other people so you won't get a cosy table for two. Food was great.
The hotel has seen better days so defo wouldn't reccomend if you're after something nice. There's also quite a loud bar down downstairs so ask for a room away from that - never really bothered us though. If you're after the childcare option I think it does get booked up quite quick.
