[quote=Anonymous]When we moved DC to Bay Area my DH flew out in May to interview, accepted the job early or mid June, and I started calling daycares (our older DD was almost 3). It turns out most were building their class / figuring out enrollment by the end of June for a Sept start. We rushed out (company paid) to scout daycare and look at neighborhoods for housing. The company also provided 8 weeks of temporary housing which helped tremendously and meant we could continue looking after we moved. We moved in mid August and I took two weeks off work to settle us in. We had a condo to manage the sale of in DC, but weren’t buying in the Bay Area. Ultimately my realtor was left having to manage aspects of the sale (hired a painter for example) in our absence. 6-8 weeks seems long on paper but it was really fast! (My job let me telework - it took another 7 months for my transfer to our CA office to go through.)[/quote]
