With Baby Switch, parents can take turns on an attraction without both having to join the regular queue separately.
To use Baby Switch, speak to a Cast Member at the entrance to the attraction. Once the first parent has ridden, the second can use a separate entrance without having to queue again.
The service is not only useful for babies and young children. It can also be used if a child does not want to go on an attraction or if several children are not equally suited to a particular ride.

Baby Switch – A service for families with children
Parents visiting Disneyland with young children or a baby can enjoy all the attractions in both theme parks without having to queue twice. This is possible thanks to the handy service known as ‘Baby Switch’. And no, don’t worry, you don’t actually have to switch your baby, even if the English name of the service might make it sound that way. Instead, it allows families with children of any age to enjoy the attractions and rides at Disneyland Paris separately without having to wait in the queue twice. In practice, while one parent enjoys the ride, the other looks after the child, and then they swap roles. This way, you can all have fun without doubling the waiting time. This service is particularly useful for fast-paced attractions such as rollercoasters, but it can also be used if your child is afraid of certain things or simply doesn’t enjoy a particular ride. You can also use the service if you have several children. Perhaps one of them is simply too young or too small for a looping ride. No problem thanks to Baby Switch!
How it works
Choose an attraction you’d both like to go on and speak to a Cast Member at the entrance.
One of you then joins the queue while the other looks after the child.
Once your partner has finished the ride, you can swap roles and enjoy the attraction yourself without having to queue again, using a separate entrance.
Of course, you won’t need Baby Switch for every attraction at Disneyland Paris. There are plenty of attractions in both theme parks that are suitable for the whole family, from Le Carrousel de Lancelot to meet-and-greets with Disney characters. There are also numerous shows and areas of the parks that you can simply explore. In general, Fantasyland is the area of Disneyland Park best suited to families with young children.
You’ll also find detailed descriptions of all the attractions in both Disney Parks on our website, so you can get a better idea of whether you might want to use Baby Switch. Alongside each description, we’ve also assessed whether the attraction is suitable for young children, which should give you a useful point of reference.
