A core belief

You can only dream as big as the world you’ve seen.

We believe exposure shapes possibility.

The more we see, the more we understand. The more we’re exposed to, the more we imagine for ourselves and our children.

Travel is one of the greatest forms of exposure — a chance to experience different places, people, cultures and ways of life.

Because you can only dream to the level of your exposure.

And we want our little ones to see a bigger world.

Plan your own escape

Going somewhere with your little traveler?

Not every trip needs to be a VillageAway group escape. Sometimes you already know where you want to go. Sometimes you just want to bring a few friends and their little ones along.

Tell us where you want to go, who you’re traveling with, and what kind of trip you’re imagining — and we’ll help you plan the rest.

From finding the right family-friendly stay to building an itinerary that actually works with naps, feeding times, little legs and grown-up fun, we’ll take care of the details.

Meet the founders

Two moms. A bigger village.

We’re Josie and Lynn — two moms who still want to see the world.

We became mothers, but we didn’t stop being curious, adventurous women who wanted to experience new places.

We created VillageAway because we believe becoming a parent doesn’t mean putting your dreams on hold — and our little ones don’t have to be left behind.

They belong in the adventure too.

VillageAway is our way of creating beautiful experiences where parents and children can explore, connect, and make memories together.

Our philosophy

Travel feels better together.

Travel has always been about more than seeing a new place. It’s about perspective. It’s about curiosity. It’s about showing our children a world bigger than the one they know.

We believe the world is one of the greatest classrooms.

VillageAway creates the space to experience that — together.
