Hi there! Don´t be scared! I am a mother who bought her children over to Spain at a young age ( 3years old) I checked out the locations, living & working in Spain, schools etc with a fine tooth comb! Once all my concerns were satisfied I moved to Spain 6 years ago and I have never looked back! You need to ask the questions to people who have moved to Spain for the same reasons you are wanting to move here. There is no doubt that Spain will ultimately achieve a better lifestyle for you & your children.... take your time .... you need to feel confident that all your questions have been answered especially conecrning your children.

Location? I live in Almeria, I chose here due to the all year round climate and what this would mean to me and my children. We truly have the luxury of all year óutdoor´living, long sunny days even during the winter! great for Kids!
This province boasts an amazing coastline and is true Andalucia .....lets says REAL SPAIN! The children have many spanish & english friends, fluent in both languages and are happily growing up. I am happy that they can still play in the streets and can still enjoy their childhood! The schooling is great and I follow their education with enthusiasm. I am one of those paranoid Mums and like you want the best for my childrens future.... thats why I am here!

Take a look at this coastline, let me know what your ideal ´wish list ´is ? This then helps as you can start defining the location etc If you have any concerns please ask, I work, live and travel frequently through Spain and I came here as a single MUM..... I have first hand experience!

Good luck!
