@spindio welcome to dubai, all the places of dubai are safe and secure, you can stay everywhere, but depend on your bughet,

Thank you for your response

@spindio - First things first, you may need to get written permission from your daughter's father saying that he is happy for her to move here.  Then you will need to find a good job that will provide you with a housing allowance and schooling for your daughter.  Housing is expensive here and a one-bedroom in Dubai can cost you between 600 to 800 GBP per month.  There are only private schools here for expats and this will set you back around 10'000GBP per year.  These considerations are important but if you have the finances available it will be the best decision you have ever made.  My children are so happy here, as am I.  It is so safe and everyone kindy considers children here.

Thank you - thats  helpful

not sure how i get  a letter of permission from a deceased person though

@spindio Hi lady, try and live out of Dubai. It's much cheaper.

I lived in Al Ain and it was one of the best places to raise a child.

You can also look in Dubizzle for cheaper accommodation.

There are many rental properties to search.

Dubai is great for expats. Job-wise, there are many opportunities, especially in finance and tech. Schools are excellent but pricey. For safety, try areas like Arabian Ranches or Dubai Marina. Cost of living is high, so make sure your job covers it.

I saw this discussion is old, but I can add something new for those still looking into it: for the actual move, [link moderated] is a solid choice. They handle packing, transportation, and furniture relocation, which can take a lot off your plate during an international transition.
