Charlotte was born in Provence, where she grew up surrounded by the rich flavors of garlic, olive oil, and sun-ripened produce. Her passion for food led her to travel, exploring different culinary traditions before refining her craft at a prestigious French gastronomy school in Paris. After three years in the capital, she returned to her roots in Provence, bringing with her a wealth of knowledge and inspiration from her journeys.

Specializing in fresh vegetables, grilled cheeses, and delicate French pastries, Charlotte masterfully blends her Provencal heritage with global influences. Her cooking is a reflection of her experiences—rooted in tradition yet open to new flavors, always celebrating quality ingredients and simple, delicious food. At Ilo Provence, she creates meals that bring people together, honoring both the warmth of home cooking and the artistry of French cuisine.

She is also the owner of , which you have to visit when in Provence.

Say Hello to the childcare team for ilo Provence this May👋🏼

Irene and Yukako, the incredible educators who will be leading the childcare program at ilo in Provence this May.

🌱 Yukako, originally from Tokyo, has spent over five years as an educator in international schools, forest kindergartens, and English language schools in Japan. Her experience extends beyond Japan, having worked with young children in New Zealand, Australia, and Denmark. Specializing in nature-based art workshops and outdoor play, she creates a safe and engaging environment for children while ensuring plenty of creativity and exploration.

👩‍🏫 Irene is a qualified preschool teacher with a decade of experience working with children in private, public, and international schools. Originally from Portugal, she has explored education systems around the world, bringing a wealth of knowledge and a global perspective to her teaching. She’s also an ilo veteran, having attended several of our family retreats—so she knows exactly what makes ilo special.

At ilo, we are committed to high-quality childcare, maintaining a 1:3 educator-to-child ratio. If our group grows, we’ll expand the team by bringing in another member from ilo’s education team. 💛

Through our recent survey we asked you if there are any tools that make your travels easier as a family… and it looks like the solutions are not there yet.

The complexity of traveling with little ones cannot seem to be addressed with a one magic tool.

BUT we don’t look for shortcuts- on our trips you will experience slow, nutritious food, family atmosphere and competent, loving childcare.

So, if you want to experience and adventure with your little ones in 2025- head to our website and book a room for Provence, Portugal or Italy for this new year.

We asked for your tips for parents traveling for the first time with their little one...
Although there is absolutely no consensus on how to do it right ( just like in parenting) all the answers were very relatable.

Our favs? Slides 8 and 9...mostly because we are the one stop shop for those tips to come true.

What tips are missing?
