Children notice disruption early. A little planning helps them feel included rather than sidelined.
- Talk about the move in simple terms and visit the new area if you can.
- Let them pack a “first night” box with toys, books and a favourite blanket.
- Keep routines — meals and bedtime — as steady as possible in the final week.
- Arrange childcare on moving day if little ones would be safer off-site.
- Unpack their bedroom early so they have a familiar base in the new home.
