Tips to consider when moving with children within the UK:
- Tell your children about the move as soon as possible. This way, they’ll have time to adjust to the new circumstances, and say goodbye to their friends
- If you have school-aged children, you should ideally move in the summer, as changing schools during the year can be an unnecessarily stressful experience
- Pay attention to your children and talk to them. They are also going through a potentially upsetting change, so it’s always important to answer any of their questions and concerns patiently
- Involve your children in choosing the new house
- Involve the children in packing and the moving process
- On the moving day, younger children should stay with relatives or friends. This will make the transition smoother and create less confusion for the children
Follow these simple tips and your pets should also enjoy a stress free move to your new home.
