Changes to the 0-5 Mamas and Papas Group

The 0-5 year old contingent of Mamas and Papas is proud to announce that our 4th Saturday of the month meeting will now be held from 10am-12 pm in the indoor play area at the Eureka Valley Recreation Center located at 100 Collingwood Street between 18th and19th Streets in San Francisco.

This group will be an informal playgroup; please come for as long or as little time as you wish. While no formal childcare is provided, the indoor space has age-appropriate toys and play equipment and we will all be able to watch over the kids while we chat. Please note: no food will be provided at this meeting.

Several people in our recent survey indicated they would prefer a more informal play group experience so we could get to know one another in a less formal basis. We hope that this format will be to everyone's liking.

So see you at Eureka Valley Rec Center on August 22nd and every 4th Saturday thereafter.

(We will still meet on the 2nd Saturday of the month at the LGBT Center for more formal, topic-based discussion. Food and childcare provided.)

Meeting Reminder: Saturday, August 23 Meeting & Playgroup!

Posted by Julia

Hi everyone. Just a reminder about next Saturday's 0-5 meeting.

When: Saturday 8/23, 10am-11:30am (please allow transition time if your child is new to the Center's Kidspace)

Where: The SF LGBT Community Center, 1800 Market St., San Francisco, CA

The topic will be: Balancing Acts! As we navigate parenthood, we have to make an array of difficult decisions. Some of the most challenging may be about the time and energy we give to involving the families we grew up in with the families we've made for ourselves - how much? When? Where are our boundaries? What are our expectations? And hey, can we just stay home in our jammies sometimes when we have some too-rare free time? Will Gramma or our child's favorite Uncle forgive us?



Also, something fairly new to the group, we now have post-meeting playgroups (12:15pm) at nearby Koshland Park (Page & Buchanan sts.). All are invited to join us.
