Tackling Disney With a Toddler!

Chef Mickey's
Chef Mickey's

Do you remember your first trip to Disney as a child? What do you recall? Your favorite characters? The castle? All the magical sights and sounds? I am sure that you don't even remember the wait times, being tired or overheated in the Florida weather! The good news is your kiddos won't recall these stressful moments either.


Taking a toddler to Walt Disney World or Disneyland can be daunting but it doesn't have to be! There are many ways in which everyone can enjoy their trip and make memories that will last a lifetime! Although your little one may not remember the trip in as much detail as an older child may, as a parent or grandparent you will get to see that "one little spark" and magic in their eyes that you can only experience at Disney for such a short period of time. The memories that you make at this age are priceless. 


Disney was created with families in mind. Utilizing my knowledge, I will help you to take advantage of some of these built in perks that are available within Disney property that you may not be aware of. Some examples are using family care centers, stroller rentals, Disney transportation, areas in the parks to "get the wiggle out", navigating the parks with children with disabilities and using the Disney DAS system.


Toddlers are notoriously picky eaters, sadly Disney does not have a cure for this! Disney does offer many dining options for a variety of different tastes. However, at times there can be too many choices! I can assist you and your family in finding an option that fits everybody's taste buds, favorite Disney characters or theming. As well as discussing character dining options. I can assist in scheduling dining reservations and often suggest that they are made during the hottest part of the day to take advantage of the air conditioning!


A suggestion that I highly advise is for families traveling with a toddler, is to approach the parks with a strategy in mind. By creating this plan with me we will look at early entry hours, extended evening hours, after-hour events and virtual queues. Exploring if Genie plus is a service that would make sense for you and your family. As well as understanding what attractions may be too intense for your little ones, even if they meet the height requirements. By approaching that parks in this way, it takes some of the pressure off your shoulders and allows you to be in the moment and enjoy your time.


If you are visiting the parks for the "first time in forever", if you are a frequent guest, or fondly revisiting Disney as an adult, I am here to help you. My expertise will help add some pixie dust to your trip to make it truly memorable while avoiding unnecessary stress. Please "be my guest" as I partner with you to plan an unforgettably magical trip!

My Reviews

Vegas Twice in a Year Thanks to Sara !!!
My wife and I really wanted to go to Las Vegas for our 25th wedding anniversary. At the time we were not sure if you could afford all we wanted to and still get a Fancy Strip Hotel. We decided to try a travel agent and we wrre lucky enough to find Sara. Not only was she able to get us more than we wanted within our budget, but she saved us so much money, we were able to go again. Having a knowledgeable travel agent is a must and Sara has performed beyond our expectations. Truley an all Aces, Five Star Agent !!!

Excellent customer service
Sara is very good to work with. We gave her the destination, budget and dates and she provided us with multiple options to choose from. This was my first vacation out of the country and Sara provided us all the details of what to expect.

Great Memories
Sara was absolutley fantastic in helping me plan my "bucket list" vacation to Jamaica. Her knowledge of the area and dedication to providing top notch service truly was more than I though I would get with a travel agency. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking to have a stress free travel experience.

Mindblowing Experience!!
I'm THOROUGHLY impressed with Sara and the whole operation. I'm in the industry in a way, know the difference between good and bad service, and am highly picky. To say Sara nailed it is the understatement of the year. Being in the industry, I didn't have a need to outsource, but I'm soooooo glad i did. She took Disney, a major operation, and simplified it into a curated personal experience like I never would have dreamt up myself. Her knowledge of the venue is next level, the passion shown had me jacked up to go, and the entire experience would have been nowhere near as special without her personal touch. The level of attention was uncanny. I have impromptu requests on trips all the time, and on each one, the response time was perfect, and it wasn't "transactional". There's so many ideas I had that I thought were solid, that she would step up and correct me with BETTER ideas.... this happened easily 10+ times. Will unquestionably work with her again on

Sara was very helpful in the planning and setting up the trip. Even after the trip was done she continued to help squaring up weather related cancellations.
