Hi Lisha, Sorry for the delay responding, yes we are due in Perth in mid Sept. My wife WAS registered but due to our fourth being born we had to let the registration activation deadline pass so we have to re-register!! My wife has a job in KEMH in Subiaco organised, her ears really pricked up when she heard of another Irish midwife with a small baby moving over around the same time!! Are you registered with AHPRA yet? Takes a bloody age!! Have you any work orgainsed? Looking forward to hearing from you. John

Hi Sadie, Apologies for the delay in replying- Yes we are heading to Perth, mid September hopefully:biggrin: As regards quotes we have only one so far from Careline, €5300 for 650sq ft- which sounds expensive. From reading other posts on here I've give McGimpseys a call and so far they seem very professional- hope the price is to my liking too!

Arrrrgghhhhh... Girls why did you go PM!!! I was reading you posts as we are in the same boat, from west of ireland planning on moving over in Sept, wife's a midwife. We have four kids also, youngest is a week old, I thought we were the only ones who were planning(mad enough) to make the move with a big family.

Should be there by now but the surprise of baby number four arriving in March has put us back a bit! My question is this will we survive on a combined income of $140,000, we have will have 4 kids- couple of months old+2yo+5yo+8yo. I know its been asked a million times! We will be on a 457. Cheers J

Fiona- Thanks so much for your energizing post, doubts dispelled- for today at least.

Hi Guys, We live in Galway, West of Ireland, our kids can run out the door and play with friends- which is one of the great benefits of where we live. We are planning on moving to Perth in October and were wondering if anyone can advise us to whether its the same over there? Cheers J&L
