As needed · Moving with family
Moving with children brings its own French forms and conversations. I help you organise school enrolment, understand practical requests from local services and handle agreed CAF or childcare paperwork in English and French.
What I can help with
The route depends on your child’s age, where you live and which services you need. We agree the tasks before starting.
I can identify the local administrative route, organise the requested documents and help with the mairie and school forms for a public primary school. For collège or lycée, I can help coordinate the relevant school or education-authority steps.
I can help with factual questions and documents for school meals, after-school care or other municipal services, and keep track of what has been requested or confirmed.
I can help organise the family, residence and income documents requested for a relevant CAF application, explain messages in English and prepare factual responses in French. The CAF assesses eligibility and amounts.
Need help contacting a crèche, completing an agreed municipal application or responding to another family-related document request? Tell me what you need and I’ll assess the administrative work.
How it works
Tell me your location, the children’s ages, what has already been done and any deadline.
I’ll confirm whether the €119 school service fits, or provide a fixed quote for the other tasks you need.
I’ll organise the agreed forms and correspondence, explain responses in English and make clear what needs your own action.
Your family’s decisions
You review the information submitted for your family, keep your account credentials and attend any required meeting or assessment with your child. The school, mairie, education authority or CAF makes the relevant allocation or benefits decision.
If a situation calls for specialist advice on immigration status, family rights or a dispute, I can help coordinate the factual documents around the qualified professional’s work.
Good to know
I can help identify the process and prepare documents in advance. The steps you can complete before arrival depend on your commune, address and the school level. For a child arriving from abroad, the official school guidance distinguishes primary and secondary routes.
No. It covers the paperwork for one standard public maternelle or elementary-school enrolment in one commune. If you want research on several schools or help with private applications, I can quote separately for the work involved.
Yes, on a tailored quote. A child arriving from abroad may have an assessment and an allocation through the education authority before enrolment. I can help with the practical documents and correspondence, but the authority decides placement.
I can help you use official information, organise the relevant application and respond to requests for documents. Eligibility depends on the family’s circumstances and, for foreign nationals, applicable residence and stay conditions. The official guidance explains those conditions; the CAF makes the decision.
A clearer next step
Tell me about the school or family paperwork on your list. I’ll confirm what I can take on and whether the €119 school service or a tailored quote fits.
