Five years ago I moved to a new area with a 2 year old. I didn’t know a soul. So I searched online for a moms’ group and found The Shore Mothers’ Club. I’m so glad I did! I have made many contacts to great local businesses, job opportunities, and most importantly friends for my son and for me.
I was nervous at first and had to push myself out of my comfort zone. But after a year I was the president! I’ve spoken to many moms and I tell them all the same thing, just come out to one event, you won’t regret it. It may be difficult to put yourself out there the first few times, but you honestly have only to gain in this situation. These women are at the same point in life and that makes for some instant bonding. You also have somewhere to vent and to get great advice. From how to start potty training to what strapless bra is best, these women always have your back.
Five years later, I can honestly say that if it weren’t for the moms’ club I wouldn’t be living the awesome life I am now. I can call someone and have a sitter. I can text someone to go for a walk. I can have a playdate for my kid or a wine playdate for me! Being a part of this club has so many positives for me and the moms I now call my friends.
