"1. Make sure to research the best hospitals and birthing centers in the area to ensure you have the best care available. 2. Consider joining a local support group for expat parents to connect with other families in similar situations. 3. Take advantage of the many outdoor activities available in the area to get out and explore with your new baby. 4. Take the time to familiarize yourself with the local healthcare system and insurance options to ensure you have the best coverage for your family. 5.
