At LivingSwitzerland Education Consulting, we know that relocating with children can present a unique set of challenges.

With over 10 years working in and with the Swiss education system, we know that one of the greatest hurdles expat families face in their new homeland is not only finding the right school choice for their children but also navigating the complexities of the school system as their children grow up.

What others say about me

In our experience Stefanie is most professional and diligent in getting to the right solution for the individual learner. As we planned our move to Zurich, we turned to Stefanie to help walk us through the options for our high school daughter. Stefanie helped us with a plan and research. She talked with a specific school and coordinated a meeting. In addition she helped us understand the difference between the Swiss school system and what we were used to (US and Austria). I know that hiring Stefanie was one of the best decisions we made for this move!

I just wanted to thank you for your 101 schooling advice. You explained everything very clearly and answered to all my questions and even went beyond what I expected by contacting the school and finding out the information I needed. It was very easy to communicate with you. I totally recommend your services!

Stefanie's services proved to be invaluable! She helped us to understand different school options and thanks to her support we felt that we were able to make informed choices for our family. Our two girls are now thriving at their local school

Thank you very much for this great information session! I really found it super helpful and it gave me a whole new perspective on the school options in Zurich!

I will definitely recommend your services to any parents deciding on schools for their children. I wish you had been around when we moved to Switzerland as we tried local, bilingual and international with our 2 oldest children!

We were extremely happy that we had a chance to meet you. You unraveled a huge puzzle for us and have helped us a lot!
