Making Friends at Mommy Connections

Written by Katelyn Onaba, Director of Mommy Connections Sherwood Park:

Have you ever wondered what this whole Mommy Connections thing is really about? Have you looked at our website, thought about taking a class, but then never registered? I did the same thing when I was pregnant. I recently joined the Mommy Connections Edmonton West Post-natal group as a participant. I had so much fun on the first day that I wanted to write about it so all of you moms who are considering joining our great programs get a better idea of all the wonderful things we offer.  Here we go…

When I said I had so much fun on the first day, I lied…I actually missed the first class. But, when I showed up the second week, I still felt just as welcomed and included as if I had met everybody there before. There was none of the usual room full of people silently waiting for the “teacher” to start class. I walked into a large room and a small group of moms smiling, introducing themselves, and of course, talking about babies. Within the first minute I was already having conversations with four other moms. This is really what Mommy Connections is all about. Yes, we may learn about babywearing or daycare or cloth diapers, but what we all really want is to make some mom friends to hang out with, right???

We had presentations on daycare and Intellidancing that were definitely informative and fun, but what I really noticed was all of the conversations moms were having with each other. There is a saying, “You can’t buy friends,” but I feel that sometimes you need to invest a little money into a class like this in order to make a few!

Next week is Halloween photos…keep reading to see how our little babies look all dressed up!

Happy Halloween,

Katelyn
