Parents who visit Disneyland with young children or a baby can visit all the attractions in the two theme parks without queuing up twice. This is possible thanks to the practical offer called "Baby Switch". And no, don't worry, you don't have to trade your baby in, even if the title of this service may give a little of this impression. In fact, this means that families with children of all ages can use the attractions and rides at Disneyland Paris separately without having to wait twice. In concrete terms, this means that while one parent enjoys the ride, the other parent looks after the child and then the roles are swapped. This way you all have fun without doubling the waiting time. This service is particularly useful for fast-moving attractions such as roller coasters, but can also be used if your child is afraid of certain things or simply does not enjoy a ride. You can also use this service if you have several children, maybe one is just too young or too small for a looping - no problem thanks to Baby Switch!
How it works
Look for an attraction that you both want to ride and queue and talk to a cast member at the entrance.
The first of you then joins the queue while the other looks after the child.
After your partner has finished the ride, you can switch roles and enjoy the ride without havon to wait.
Of course, you don't need the Baby Switch at all attractions at Disneyland, because there are plenty of attractions in both theme parks that are suitable for the whole family, from Le Carrousel de Lancelot to the meetings with the Disney characters. Not to forget the numerous shows and the areas in the parks that you can just explore. In general, Fantasyland is the area at Disneyland that is most suitable for families with young children.
You will also find detailed descriptions of all attractions in both Disney Parks on our site, so that you can get an idea of whether you want to use the Baby Switch or not. In addition to the descriptions, we have made an assessment of whether the respective attraction is suitable for small children or not - certainly a useful clue for you. Just have a look at both categories Disneyland Park and Walt Disney Studios Park in our travel guide, you will also find some tips for a visit to Disneyland with small children.
