Babies and moms *

Hello everyone,

I possible be moving to Qatar and i have a few questions, especially for the ladies :)

I Have a 6month baby, and I would like to know if there's nurseries available for him at this early age, and if they´re international and trust worthy.

About me, does anyone here is or know someone who´s a flight attendant in Qatar airways, with babies?
Is there some kind of benefit for those mums?

And finally, about getting a house, is it too hard? Where is the best Quality/price places to look for? apartment or compound? are the prices too high?

Thank you very much in advance!

As I often have to work till 5pm, closing at 2.30pm is neither use nor ornament to me. They often will stretch to another hour after 2.30pm but that is it (I pretty much contacted all reputable nurseries before finally getting my son into PP after waiting for about 8 months)

Flor, for once I agree with you, nurseries do run at those times and are not condusive to working parents, I know of only one nursery that opens later, that is petit pas but they have a long waiting list
