  1. Hi Everyone, Wanting some advice from other families that have moved to Perth re costs. Bit of background on us, we are a young family looking to move in a years time to Perth. My husband is from Australia, and I am from the UK. I have my visa approved for 5 years (I have 2 remaining). I am a Project Manager (Financial services/Retail) and my husband is a Business Analyst (Financial Services). We have 2 young children (This is my concern!) That will be 3 and 1 year old when we move. We are older parents, husband will be 40 when we move. We will earn good money roughly $100k each per year. These are my concerns: 1) Childcare! - As we have 2 children who are young, I have done lots of research and i've seen that childcare is around $90AUD a day for 1 child. I have two children so that will be $180 per day - Is any other young families in the same situation? And how do you manage the costs? I know we can get a rebate, but its not much to help. 2) Although we are both qualified with lots of experience, i'm concerned around job availability, is anyone or has anyone stuggled to find work? 3) What areas of perth do you live in and how long does your commute take you? 4) Have any females had luck in securing a 4 day working week? or do you know any companies that are flexible with family life? Thanks so much for taking the time out to read my post, and offer advice.
