Ocean Kids Care

Comes to you

Babysitters and nannies at your riad, surf camp, hotel or villa.

Questions

Can I get a babysitter in Taghazout or Tamraght?
Yes. Some childcare services come to your hotel, villa or surf house across the bay, from a few hours to whole days. Message them on WhatsApp with your children's ages and the dates you need.
Is there a vet who comes to the house?
Yes, there is a home-visit vet covering Greater Agadir, including Tamraght and Taghazout. For surgery or an overnight stay, the nearest clinics are in Agadir, about 30 minutes away.
Where can I learn Darija?
Local teachers give Moroccan Darija lessons in person in Tamraght or online, from complete beginner level. A few words of Darija go a long way at the souk and with your neighbours.
Can someone film or photograph my surf?
