Hi everyone!
Me and my partner Luke have decided that we want to move to Spain, having three children and needing to work there is ofcourse the issue of childcare to consider. After searching for ages on Google I decided it was probably a better idea to ask the pro’s.
I’m full of questions and can’t seem to get the right answers lol, so here we go:
1. Nanny vs Creche, what would you lot recommend?
2. Estimation of cost per week per child for both of the above?
3. What’s the deal with Au pairs over there, obv with us being English the au pair isn’t going to gain the Spanish that they would through living with Spanish residents, would this be an issue?
4. Do the Spanish have the equivalent to an English childminder?
5. What qualifications are people in these positions expected to hold?
6. Do I have to go through an agency for a nanny and will there be the dreaded ‘finders fees’? These are like 800 quid over here!
7. What can I expect from my childcare provider?
8. Do the Spanish have an equivalent to a CRB check?
There, think I’m done 😊 if anyone thinks of anything else I might need to be aware of I’d appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks in advance for any responses received.
Emma and Luke
