Single parent moving to Abu Dhabi

G79

Hi
I am currently in the process of looking for work in Abu Dhabi. I am a qualified occupational therapist with 2 children.
I would only be travelling with my 6 year old as my eldest is 19 and wants to complete university in London.
I would love to hear from other single parent families experience living there, schooling, quality of life etc.
😁

Hello

I am not a single parent but would like to comment.
If you have a job offer then consider the salary and other benefits provided by the employer.  if accommodation is provided and you get education for the six year old, then you should be okay to some extent - but depends on the salary they offer you.
Some companies provide education expenses up to 21 but most companies limit this to 18.

Good luck
