Carolin Posted August 30, 2010 #2 Share Posted August 30, 2010 The only ships that these are available on is the Oasis and Allure. You might want to also post this on the Family section. They are very helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gerif Posted August 30, 2010 #4 Share Posted August 30, 2010 I have asked about this in the Family section...I was looking for Royal Caribbean specific information. Well, then, you got your answer. After drydock, they will be outfitting Freedom with a nursery (I believe it will be ready later in 2011) and the other Freedom class ships as they come up for drydock.

audekat Posted August 30, 2010 Author #5 Share Posted August 30, 2010 So no one has actually put their child in teh nursury and has nothing what so ever to say about it other than that one exists on the Oasis. Well at least if I go with Royal I know my little guy will get losts of attention in an empty nursury... :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what people are trying to say. If you go on another ship, unless you go next year when the Freedom class has been drydocked, you will NOT have a nursery available to you.

time4me2fly Posted August 30, 2010 #7 Share Posted August 30, 2010 Since oasis is the only ship that has a nursery, you will need to wait to hear from cruisers that were on the Oasis that used the nursery, so they can tell you their experience. Not many cc members can answer your question, because we don't have babies. Those with babies may not have sailed on Oasis. Hopefully, someone will come along with some info for you. You might have to wait a day or two and push your question back to page one. Are you planning a cruise on the Oasis? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
audekat Posted August 30, 2010 Author #8 Share Posted August 30, 2010 Are you planning a cruise on the Oasis? Oasis is on my short list. I am also looking at carnival, but they don't have nursuries on anyship right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NicoLee Posted August 31, 2010 #9 Share Posted August 31, 2010 i am taking my 12mo old DD on Oasis next week. we plan to use the Nursery quite a bit, maybe even leave her on board while we go on shore. I will post a review Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klmprr Posted August 31, 2010 #10 Share Posted August 31, 2010 We were on Oasis in April and our then 18 month old went to the nursery on 3 occasions for about 2 hours each. He seemed to like it...he never had a problem when we dropped him off and when we picked him up he always seemed content playing. The caregivers were great. They will give you a phone in case they need to get in touch with you. They also have a play area in the center of the kid's area with a bunch of toys that you can bring her to go and play with at different times throughout the day and stay with her. This came in handy when he just wanted to run around for a while. I believe the amount of hours that the nursery is available depends on the amount of children onboard and the amount of hours that are booked. It was nice to get him out of the sun for a while and to be able to swim with the older kids. I probably would have used the nursery a little more if I had known how well he would adapt to it.

Liberty is the other ship that will get the upgrade next year. If you do a search for Royal Babies, you'll get a really good thread with other people who were on board when Oasis first came out. Since Oasis lost it's dedicated board you'll need to search here to find it. Good Luck with your decision. Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
