My husband has been offered an opportunity to work in France for 2-3 months next year, in the Grenoble region. Circumstances permitting (e.g. travel restrictions) I am considering joining him. However, I would also need to work and we have a 2-year-old who would therefore need to be in full time (Mon-Fri) childcare (he currently attends nursery in the UK). We would greatly prefer him to be in some form of childcare with other children, as opposed to having a nanny who only cares for him.

My husband has been offered an opportunity to work in France for 2-3 months next year, in the Grenoble region. Circumstances permitting (e.g. travel restrictions) I am considering joining him. However, I would also need to work and we have a 2-year-old who would therefore need to be in full time (Mon-Fri) childcare (he currently attends nursery in the UK). We would greatly prefer him to be in some form of childcare with other children, as opposed to having a nanny who only cares for him.

Having researched the various childcare options available, it is still unclear whether they would be available to us (as non-residents: we will remain UK taxpayers; and for such a short period).

Can anyone offer information or advice about the options and practicalities of such an undertaking?

Many thanks. ▲ Collapse

Contact le service petite enfance Sep 1, 2020

Hello,

I think the best way to have an answer and advice would be to contact le Pôle Accueil petite enfance of Grenoble and explain your situation.

Here's the link with phone number and email: https://www.grenoble.fr/888-creches.htm

Best regards.

Expat association Sep 1, 2020

Hi Wendy, I can't remember how or when I first heard of this lot but they're a local expat association, thus almost bound to have experience of situations similar to yours and able to offer either specific advice or at least useful contacts: https://openhousegrenoble.com/
