Mum of 2 (2.5yrs and 1yr) leaving UK for Melbourne in 3 months with Husband
Hi
I am new to this, please be patient!
I am moving to Melbourne in approx 3 months with my husband who will be working there, near Mount Waverley.Currently we live in Newcastle Upon Tyne. I have 2 children, both boys, 2.5 yrs and 1yr old. We need to find a property to rent and activities to do throughout the days. Can anyone recommend family friendly areas to live where there will be a good ex pat network?
I work here in the UK as an Occupational Therapist, but will not be working yet in Melbourne as will just be focusing on getting the boys settled in.
I look forward to hearing from you Thanks
Mary

Hi Mary,
Hi, welcome to the forum. I've just moved to Melbourne and am currently house-hunting in Mount Waverley/Glen Waverley. As far as I can tell, both areas are pretty good - the houses seem ok and the schools rate well on the websites. Can't elaborate on local amenities at this stage as I've only been here a week and haven't found anywhere definite yet, but I would say its a good area to look in.
Good luck!
