Moving to mumbai with toddlers?

[vdpmum]

We are considering a move to Mumbai with our three boys - eldest 5, youngest 4 months. Has anyone done it? Is it mad? Are schools accessible? Help!

Hi again - I have another question if there is still someone out there... Where should I look to get someone to provide tuition support? My middle son has Asperger's and I am getting the feeling that he may need some external help unless we get a place in one of the high end schools. I am visiting schools at the end of this month, but until then am mostly panicking remotely...

I saw your post and forgot to reply.

Tuition is big business here, but if it would help with your son I don't know. It is mainly aimed at passing exams. We have a couple of students in school with Aspergers who have one on one support but this is paid for by the parents (on top of the incredibly high fees) and I know for one girl it took a long time to sort it.

The school should be able to help, are you still looking at ASB and DSB? They will both have some structures in place, or I can ask people at my school.

When are you coming here?

Hello marcopront! Have had a wonderful look-see trip, despite unbelievable temperatures and late monsoon. Housing is pretty awful generally, isn't it? I have never seen so much pigeon poo! But sure we will resolve that in time, probably by massively exceeding our housing budget. Perhaps we can meet up when I come for good (as it were) early next year. Thanks for your help!
