Youth Program and Babysitting Information
Celebrity’s Youth & Teen Program
Our award-winning cruise experience is designed for kids, too. There’s so much for children and teens to do onboard a ­Celebrity cruise.
All programs are geared to specific age groups and supervised by experienced youth staff members. ­Celebrity kids are happy, engaged,
and entertained. You’ll get all the details once you’ve boarded, but here’s a peek at what’s available.
Programs for our young travelers are available year round from 9:00am each morning, or half an hour before arriving in each port for
children with parents on Celebrity Cruises Shore Excursions departing prior to 9:00am. The program is geared to five different age groups:
• Toddler Time – under 3 years old
• Ensigns◊ – ages 9-11
• Ship Mates◊ – ages 3-5
•Junior Teens - ages 12-14
• Cadets◊ – ages 6-8
•Senior Teens - ages 15-17
Toddler Time for children under age 3
Toddler time allows parents and toddlers to interact with other
children their age. Fun Factory Staff members provide suitable toys
for this age group, including LeapFrog® interactive toys. In accordance
with USPH policies and standards, Celebrity has provided each
ship with lavatory-based changing tables and baby wipes. Children
participating in organized events must be fully potty trained; however,
you can accompany your child to any organized activity if they’re not.

The fun starts here. It’s a place designed exclusively for our junior
cruisers. Activities and program are available from 9:00am – 10:00pm

Nerdel™ healthy food & fitness program for kids
Celebrity has partnered with The NerdelTM Company to help educate
kids about healthy nutrition and physical activity...in a fun way. This
company was developed by a team of doctors, nutritionists, chefs,
and fitness experts to address the issues of childhood obesity, hunger,
fitness, and health. Nerdel, the alien from the planet Zendel, is a life-size
character that entertains little ones with live performances, musical
activities, book readings and other fun things in a mission to empower
children with the knowledge to make better nutritional choices and
to take charge of their own physical well being. ShipmatesSM ages
3-5 and CadetsSM ages 6-8 will learn about the art of puppeteering,
performance, and production. Cute, funny and entertaining? Yes, but
