Playgroups

Even though my child is so young should I join a playgroup?

Playgroups are designed with the mother in mind, so that she has her own small support system and resource within our large club. And they are organized according to a variety of factors including the child’s birthday, your neighborhood, your work status, etc, so the mothers are experiencing the same thing at about the same time. Our playgroups are a wonderful way to establish yourself with a small group of women whose primary goal is to support one another through the challenges of motherhood.
