My husband, 13 month old daughter and I are new to the area. I'm looking for a playgroup or mom's club that's nearby that we could join or possibly start. We are available to meet on weekday mornings/mid-afternoons. We live near the Northpark Mall and would be willing to drive to meet with others.
There are two groups you should consider. North Dallas Early Childhood PTA and Preston Hollow PTA. I'm a member of the NDECPTA and have met lots of nice moms. They have social activities for moms (movie night, book club, etc). They will also organize playgroups with children of similar ages. www.ndecpta.com
hope that helps.

Welcome to Dallas, S.! I was a member of North Dallas Early Childhood PTA (NDECPTA) for about eight years and highly recommend it! I believe the group meets monthly (with childcare) at Northwest Hwy. & Midway, plus you can join a playgroup and there are many other activities, too. Good luck!
Have you checked out meetup.com? There's a group called "moms and dads in the loop", I think....that meets a few times a month. We went to several when my daughter was younger, and will probably join up again after I have my next baby. Also, check out the Lake Highlands Early Childhood PTA. They do tons of playgroups and other fun stuff!
Here are some links
Hello!
Mops is a great national moms's group! Check their website for a group near you!
Blessings! Sincerely,
C. N.
Check out some of your local churches or just google MOPS-mother's of preschoolers. I was at a loss of what to do w/myself, my new career of no longer having a career and craved some adult conversation when I first started having children 3 yrs ago. I did get involved in our MOPS group at church and 3 yrs later I am in leadership and just love it!! It gets you conncected w/other moms and I have made some wonderful friendships! If you don't have preschool children MOPS does have "mentor moms" who's children are now school age. They serve as wisdom donors and they get to know other moms who have children their age. All this in a wonderful, christian environment! Check it out and allow yourself to be blessed! If you don't mind driving go to our website: www.ibc.org and log onto MOPS. Feel free to use my name: D. Nystrom as a referral.
It sounds like you'd love to join a mom's club. Try www.momsclub.org for a chapter near you. Also, maybe a weekly class like Kindermusik, ASI gymnastics, Gymboree, Little Gym, Lifetime Fitness, etc would be fun for your daughter. Dallas Child magazine (free at kid's places around town) has lots of info on things to do and classes in the area. Also, your local parks and recreation centers have great classes for preschoolers. Welcome to the area!
Welcome to Dallas! I'm inviting you to join the Preston Hollow Early Childhood PTA. We are not associated with any school, we are just a Mom's group in your area. We've got a meeting this next Monday morning (Sept 22) and would love to have you visit! We have a female officer coming to speak about safety (while you are out with your kids and around the house). Please visit our website www.PHECPTA.org. We are currently forming play groups, so now is a great time to check us out! If you go to the meeting please look for me and I'll introduce you to everyone. I'm hard to miss since I am 5'10" and have red hair! I look forward to meeting you.

S., I would recommend the North Dallas Early Childhood PTA www.ndecpta.org. Playgoups, couples events, speakers, a wonderful network!
There is an awsome MOPS group right next to you at Fellowship Bible Church. It is off of Park lane right across 75 from Northpark Mall. Also, the many Early Childhood PTA's mentioned are great. I am in the Lake Highlands ECPTA. I think the closest to you is either mine (LHAECPTA) or the Preston Hollow one (PHAECPTA). The North Dallas one is quite far from your area. We have only had one MOPS meeting so far so come on and join us! The set up at this particular Church is awsome! They have a coffee shop and a soft play area even. Good luck! Look for me, S. Walter, if you come to the FBC's MOPS meeting. The next one is 9/26.
Hi S.! Welcome to our wonderful city! You can find playgroups by area, age, or activities at www.meetups.com
I am one of the DFW Supermommas and we would love to have you. We meet in the Irving and surrounding areas. We have quite a few toddlers so you and your daughter would fit in well. click on this link or cut and paste for more info.
