About us
At The Family Aboard, we get it—planning family trips while juggling 9-5 jobs, school schedules, dance lessons, and everything in between can feel overwhelming. That’s why we’re here to share real-world travel tips, tried-and-true advice, and fun inspiration to make exploring with kids not only doable but totally worth it. Our mission is to help busy families like yours create unforgettable adventures—without the stress!
Hey! I’m Sophie, a mom of 2 little ones. I LOVE to plan family trips despite my 9 to 5 job, our daugther’s school schedule and dance lessons!
With this blog, I want to help other families plan their trips with their children. I realise that traveling with children involves a few more ‘challenges’ than traveling solo or as a couple. So I’m here to share all our tested tips and experiences to help you better plan your family trips. On top of finding plenty of family travel tips, you’ll also find useful guides, itineraries, hotel recommendations, advice on family travel essentials and packing lists. Whatever type and size of family trip you’re planning, we’ve got you covered.
It’s a Family Thing!
As a mom of two, I’ve been traveling with my kids since they were babies, and I quickly realized how overwhelming it can be to plan trips while balancing work, school schedules, and everything else life throws at us. I started The Family Aboard because I wanted to share the tips, tricks, and lessons I’ve learned along the way, helping other parents feel more confident about exploring the world with their little ones. My goal is to show families that travel doesn’t have to be stressful—it can be fun, rewarding, and filled with unforgettable memories. If I can help make your family adventures easier and more enjoyable, then I’ve done my job!
The Family Aboard is: Raphaelle (6), Felix (3), and Papa. These are my favorite humans to spend time with – either at home or anywhere on the planet. In fact, I don’t really care about the destination, as long as I travel with them. Filling our memory bank with our littles ones while traveling is our ultimate favorite thing to do in the world!
I hope our blog posts will inspire you and give you all the tools and information you need to travel with your kids ♥️
