A number of years ago we moved to a new country right before the school year started. I did have a friend in our new neighborhood but she does not have girls my daughter’s age. She connected me (via email) to w of her friends who did. They made sure I knew which shoes were ‘in’ and what the girls were collecting so that my daughter would be able to fit in. We emailed pics of shoes back and forth, they described which types of collectibles would be more ‘valuable’, and when we arrived, they sent their girls over to play & trade. Those women became my good friends and their info allowed my DD to feel a bit more comfortable in her new surroundings.

We moved into the best neighborhood ever this year.
We got supper sent over the night we moved, Shabbat invitations for the first week (organized by the chesed committee) and lots of random people brought over baked goods the first few weeks.
We also received Shabbat invitations from people for a good few months.
Everyone came over to us in the park and in shul and introduced themselves. My DD was invited for playdates right away.
We have a womens whatsapp group where everyone can get answers to any questions.

same with neighbors allowing their kids to come play at my house.
its sort of the opposite of giving, but it feels like giving. |
So true! The first time a neighbor asked to borrow something after we moved I felt like I won the lottery!
I also felt very welcomed when neighbors brought over cookies with a welcoming note.

Why not host an event for women on the block, just to get to know each other? |
We are all so busy and don't have time to breathe.
