facilities, taking a dip in one of their pools, or doing any other activity,
they will be under the constant supervision of their carefully chosen staff of youth
counselors from leading universities and organizations. Each team counselor
attends a special training course on safety, communication skills and
confidence-building. Norwegian Cruise Lines do not offer individual baby sitting.
