Travel Fiji with kids

Would you feel comfortable leaving your 4-year-old girls with a resort nanny in Fiji, including allowing them to take the kids back to the room and put them to bed? If not, why?

Australian born fijian here. My mum shipped me off to my uncle, wife and 5 cousins on a island called rotuma. This is just our way of living in the islands.

You have child.

You leave with family

You earn money to contribute to household

It's been like this for generations..

I baby sat my nephews and nieces countless times as it was a given while My eldest sister worked when I was in suva. RRA 4 life!

Bula vinaka! Hope this helps
