Disney Parks Moms Panel Pay

Do they pay you in cash money? No. You’re a contracted worker and not a Disney employee. According to the website, “Panelists have received/will receive a Walt Disney World® Resort or Disneyland® Resort vacation for panelist and up to three family members and/or park tickets for their participation on the Disney Parks Moms Panel.” You can review your contract prior to signing. If you have a big family like me, then you would pay out of pocket for those additional family members for park tickets, etc.

Disney Parks Moms Panel Application Questions

It’s been a few years since I’ve had to apply. In the past there have been 3 to 4 rounds during the application process. The first round is usually a set of questions that ask you to tell you about yourself and/or family and lets the selection committee get a sense of your writing style. The second round has usually involved more questions and a video of yourself. The third round has usually been a telephone interview with various people on the selection committee.

The Disney Parks Moms Panel Application process could change at any time! You never know what they’ll need next. So should you apply? If you love Disney, are knowledgeable about Disney Parks, are passionate about helping people plan Disney vacations, and meet the Participation Guidelines, then YES!

You can’t make it if you don’t try. I’ll admit when I made it to the final round one year and received a “no, thank you” call, I cried. I was heartbroken. But you know what? As Walt Disney said, “You may not realize it when it happens, but a kick in the teeth may be the best thing in the world for you.” It wasn’t my time. Something I learned a year later. I was meant to be with my class, that year, no doubt in my mind.

Good luck to all those who are applying! Be you, it’s what makes you special.
