Are you a "mature" mother of a pre-school child who wants to connect with other moms? Would you like to make new friends for yourself and find playmates for your kids? Then join us!

Did you come of age during the Cold War and scandals like the Iran Contra affair? Did you spend hours watching MTV when all it showed were 24-hour music videos? Did you play with a Rubik's Cube or try to clear the last level of Pac Man? Did you ever have the hallmark "big hair?" Do you remember the original Pop Rocks and the "New Coke?" Can you do all the "arm moves" for Y.M.C.A.? And did you truly get tired of hearing your doctor refer to you as a "mother of advanced maternal aged?" (I did!)

If yes... then...

You should join other like-minded moms for playdates, coffee, lunch, free activities at local libraries (like story time, music shows, magicians) and other kid-friendly activities. We plan Moms' Night Out once each month for some grown-up conversation. Our calendar is bursting with fun activities that include kid-friendly outings, playground playdates, and library events. We welcome all suggestions for activities.

Our group is designed primarily for stay-at-home mothers of children from newborns to kindergarten who are able to take part in daytime events, but working mothers are certainly welcome. We plan some weekend events to accommodate those who can't meet during the day.

We welcome diversity and differing opinions, and hope that we can cultivate a close-knit group of mothers connecting around their kids. Moms who share an interest in attachment parenting, breastfeeding, eating healthy and organic, co-sleeping, the "no-cry sleep solution," baby wearing, cloth diapering, green living, recycling, alternative or holistic medicine, or natural parenting are especially encouraged to join. But ALL are welcome!

Expectant mothers and stay-at-home dads welcome, too!

We hope this group can be a great source of support and friendship. If this sounds like a good fit for you and you live in the MetroWest Area or just beyond, we hope you decide to join us!

*This group has been listed as "private" in order to protect ourselves and our children from internet predators. We have a full calendar that is private until you join.
