Hi and firstly, dont be afraid to come to our beautiful country. Are you moving to Johannesburg? If you are, I have children that are just about the same age and we stay outside of the city. There is a wonderful suburb called Dainfern in the northern suburbs of Johannesburg. It is a very secure estate, which has state of the art security, a school, golf course and all kinds of other amenities. It also depends on whether you are coming for a holiday, or whether you will be working. If you are working in the Sandton area, its quite a drive and then maybe you should consider an apartment. There are beautiful apartments at the Emperor in Sandton. They have a biometric security system, gym facilites, spa and wellness centre, and are very spacious. Triplex penthouse apartments. Anyway, if you need any help please contact me at boutiqueapartments@gmail.com and I will gladly help you and your family enjoy our country.

Assuming you are moving to Johannesburg, I would recommend living in any of the many 'cluster' developments....... These developments are usually well guarded and a bit more secure than living on a stand alone 'plot'. I do not know of any 'safe' places outside of Johannesburg (or even in Johannesburg). I don't think that exists in South Africa. You will learn to be extremely careful and being hyper vigilant becomes normal. We moved to Joburg with a 10 and 12 year old and had a wonderful experience.......
If you are fortunate to be moving with a corporation, please utilize all the resources that they offer. Especially a relocation person is extremely helpful.
Good luck and enjoy your stay.
