We all had a GREAT TIME, thanks to YOU!!!!!!
THANK YOU, THANK YOU so VERY MUCH for making it a fun and memorable trip for Alaina’s 10th birthday!!! The smiles and excitement from all the characters and rides and princesses and the most amazing fireworks on her birthday was a great birthday week for her, she had a great time!!
Gabriella had a wonderful time seeing the princesses! She was so excited to see Ariel and Cinderella..she felt like a princess herself in the photos she was taking with them! It was so sweet🩷 She had the time of her life when Elsa, Anna & Olaf were on stage in front of Cinderella’s Castle singing Let it Go!! She danced and sang and twirled right along with them🩵🩵🩵 it was so sweet to watch her!
Thank you again Catie for all the sweet memories and laughs we were able to create and have with Alaina and Gabriella!! We would not have been able to plan or map out our days at Hollywood Studio’s or Magic Kingdom without your knowledge and expertise! All the dining experiences you set up for us were great as well! You made directions for transportation to all our destinations a breeze! We were blessed to have you as our travel guide! Again, thank you so much for your time and patience ♥️

Catie did a fabulous job planning our European trip! We visited 4 countries over a 2-week period, and it was smooth sailing! From the flights to the transfers, the hotels, and the train rides, we had no issues and could not have asked for more! I highly recommend Catie for your travel plans, whether they be abroad or stateside! Could not have done it without her!

I have two boys 3 & 1 1/2 and my mom brain is at an allll time high and when I say CJVacations (Catie) made our stay at Disney the MOST seemless and easy week, I mean it. We told her what parks we wanted to go to, a few musts we wanted to do, and she made it all happen. With two little ones who dont last long she recommended which rides we should get lightening lanes for and that was a game changer. She even booked our reservations for breakfast/dinner. I cannot and will not stop bragging about it, our week would have been chaos without her help. 10000/10 will recommend to everyone i meet 😂. So a big THANK YOU!!!!!! You’re the best & RUN don’t walk to book with her 🎉

Why taking your Toddler to Disney Creates a Magical Adventure
Are you ready to experience the magic of Disney through the eyes of your little one? Despite what the naysayers may claim, embarking on a Disney adventure with your toddler is a decision you won't regret. Some may argue, 'They're too little to remember,' or 'It's a waste of money,' but let's talk about these comments and dive into the enchanting world of Disney with your pint-sized companion. From meeting beloved characters to witnessing the wonder of Disney's enchanting attractions, there's an abundance of joy waiting for both you and your toddler at the happiest place on earth.
Making Memories:
My husband and I have always been Disney fans. From watching the old shows of The Mouseketeers and waiting for every Sunday to watch The Wonderful World of Disney to having Disney and Disney JR on for our kids, we have always been immersed in the Disney experience. When my children were 1 and 2 years old, we went to Disney World for the first time. Since then, we have visited Disney World at different stages of my children’s lives and experienced Walt Disney World through the eyes of toddlers to enjoying drinks around the World with our kids as adults. My favorite trip will always be the first time we took them when they were 1 and 2 years old.
They are too Little to Remember:
'They’re too little to remember.' It's true that my kids don't recall our trip when they were toddlers, but I remember it vividly. I can still see the sheer joy on my daughter Tori's face when she saw Mickey for the first time, and I can't forget the sight of my son Jacob dozing off in line while waiting to meet Buzz and Woody. When Buzz tapped Jacob's shoulder, waking him up, the look on his face was absolutely priceless. While my kids may not remember these moments, I certainly do, and as their parent, I cherish these core memories. I have the photos and the stories to help my kids recall these special times.
It’s Such a Waste of Money
'It's such a waste of money.' But here's a fun fact: children under 2 get in for free! Yep, no need for a ticket for the little ones. Just remember to include them in your dining reservations headcount. And if you're using Genie+, you'll be happy to know that your toddler doesn't need a pass and can join you on suitable rides. If they're not tall enough, don't worry – make use of the rider swap. Disney is tailored for people of all ages to enjoy and many rides at Disney do not have height restrictions. Did you know that Magic Kingdom alone has 17 out of the 24 rides that have no height restrictions? Disney is an immersive experience for everybody and you as the parent are able to see the excitement of meeting your child's beloved characters in person. Those memories are priceless. 
Planning:
Planning a trip to Disney is always a mix of excitement and a bit overwhelming, especially when you're going with little ones. It's important to remember that you'll probably be moving at a slower pace than the thrill-seekers racing to the next ride or restaurant. So, it's crucial to figure out what's most important for your family and plan accordingly. Even after countless visits, I still haven't managed to see everything Disney has to offer. But what really matters is creating those core memories with your loved ones. One of my top tips for Disney trips with kids, besides letting me help you plan your trip 😉 is to consider bringing along the grandparents. When my mom joined us, it added an extra special touch to the experience, and it was great to have more adults than kids in our group.
Some people think it's best to wait until their kids are the perfect age to take them to Disney or on vacation. But I've realized that life is short, and waiting for the right time can mean missing out. I feel lucky to have seen my kids experience the magic of Disney at different stages of their lives, and each trip is very special to me. Ultimately, it's up to you, and no one should make you feel guilty about choosing to take your little ones to Disney. So, go ahead and book that trip, I'm always here to help you navigate the Wonderful World of Disney!
