The North Shore Moms Group is a great forum to meet other local Moms. We are a fun and welcoming group and are always looking to meet other Moms! I started this group almost three years ago when I moved to Vancouver from Ontario. My son was only 1 and I was looking forward to meeting other Moms in my community. However there were no local groups so I started this one! This group has been an amazing resource to meet other Moms and to make lasting friendships. In addition, it has been invaluable i …

I started this group because as a new mom, I was looking to connect with other moms in my community. My son is one and a half but this is still a whole new venture for me.

We get together for: physical activity, community events, playdates, mom's night out and much more! If you're a mom with a young child looking for the same, feel free to si …

The vision for this group is one of an active playgroup, ideally with a neighbourhood feel.
