Hi Jennifer,

I can answer at least one of your questions, about international nurseries. They don't exist. Your only option will be to try to get a foreign nanny. It will be a minimum of 300$ plus tickets for them to go home once a year, plus food, mobile credit, and there may be a fee for just bringing her which could be up to 3000$. It all depends.

Everyone says the University of Kurdistan is good. There is an international university (Sabis), but I don't know if they have an MBA program.

We live in Ainkawa and the rent is about 1000$ for a 3 bedroom house. I'm not sure about American Village and the others.

You should know the nursery situation because no one told me and now I am stuck in a bad situation with my 1 year old.

Best of luck

Hi wingsgirl,

Thanks a lot for your advise, I have look at the British international school and they accept children from 3-5 years. Even thought my 4 years old can join the school but only from 8am - 1pm only and another 2 years old have no nursery to send. This meant I have to stay at home to take care of them and only my husband can go to work...

I don't want to hire a nanny because it is expensive and not convenient, I don't want a strange person live in the house with us.

I have few more questions:

1. is this easy to find some one to do house keeping job for about 3 times/weeks and how much is the fee?

2. I'm thinking maybe I should let my husband stay there on his own for a few months and then if everything is fine then I bring my kids there later, I don't have a decision right now... how do you think?

3. I found a MA program with British University in Erbil, do you know this university? Their website provided only a little information so I don't know if it is good or not?

Thanks a lot and have nice day!
Jennifer

you welcome, i just know that British school open a nursery, i think that will be nice for you and me.

Hi All

I have been moved from Amman to Erbil and currently based there, for rent fees its getting too expensive.

I had an appartment in Royal City (Empire) at $2,000 and you have to pay fixed $300 for service to include electricity and water. But to be honest its a decent place to live.

Thanks, M.J
