Moving to Shoeburyness June 2012 !!!

#1 Unread post by sarahspider » Fri Oct 07, 2011 5:20 pm

Hello there! Im Sarah xx
I may be being a little premature but we're relocating to Shoeburyness from Wiltshire after our wedding in June.
Am a bit scared as apart from uni I've always lived in Wiltshire and i won't know anyone.

Jude will be 27 months when we arrive so am looking for advice on good nurseries/childminders in the area and if anyone knows of any good recruitment agencies that do health and social care. Am a social worker currently working in mental health and would like to do some locum work when we move.

Most importantly i'd like some friends!!
Am going to try to get involved with the boards so can get to know some people before we make the move.
Am also on twitter @SarahBrights if anyone else is on there.

Look forward to hearing from anyone nearby and putting some faces to names next year xxx

Welcome to the site and home the move goes well - we have a few Shoebury mums on here so hopefully they can help you!

I'm Louise and I live in Westcliff so not far from where you will be. I have two kids, Felix who is 4 and Iris who is 2.

So what will be bringing you this way?

Hi Sarah!

I'm Jenny from Southchurch (you'll have to drive past me to get to the High STreet!) I have a 4 year old and a 7 month old, both boys!

Have you started looking into property?

Jamie works in the city and the commute is killing him (about 2hrs each way) so he's hardly seeing Jude at all in the week, and it's mega expensive on the train! so weve decided to move after the wedding so we get more quality family time. We didn't want to move before the wedding as many of our suppliers are down here, but wanted to do it before i get pregnant (hopefully not too long after the wedding!)

Jamie lived in different bits of Essex before we met as was close for work and bought a cottage in Shoeburyness. We met 9 months later and he moved straight back to Wiltshire so has been renting in out the past 3 years. Have been given the nod that i can totally redecorate exactly how i want :) Ive been there twice but many years ago and jamie knows the area a little bit which will be helpful x

Hi Sarah.
I grew up in Shoeburyness and my parents still live there in my childhood home near the seafront. Where abouts in Shoebury are you thinking of moving to?
I live in Southchurch with my partner and 3 kids and step daughter.
I run a mother and toddler group not far from shoebury so come along next year.x

I think it's somewhere near/on Wakering Rd????
Will definately be coming along to M&T Jude is very sociable. We currently do a couple of music classes which he really loves but my mum looks after him when im at work so thats the only interaction he gets with other kids as no nursery etc. Want to have some stuff lined up that we can go to straight away when we move so he doesn't get lonely.....nor me come to think of it! x

I grew up in shoebury too, with Rachel and my husband too!
Wiltshire is lovely
Recruitment agencies there's ENS nursing, reeds, SEPT which is PCT based so google South East Essex PCT and also the website jobs.nhs - we have two main hospitals that deal with mental health, Runwell and Rochford, if you wanted me to find out more I will ask around at work as work at Southend Hospital
Hope you have a smooth move x

Haha Kris, that makes it sound a bit like you, Rachel and Tom all grew up in the same house, which would be... well, odd to say the least!

When you said cottage - I figured you mean Wakering Road. I have 2 friends who have property on that road and a few just round the corner! My friend's child goes to quite a nice nursery but not sure which?

There's plenty of music groups and things too. I have just joined one and starting this week! I also go to Rachels group!

What sort of wedding are you having?
