Seeking Play Group in Los Alamitos/Rossmoor Area

Hi S.,
I too have a lot in common with you. We recently moved to the Los Al/ Rossmoor area, was a teacher for 10 years, have a 10, 5, and 5 mts. old and am home full time. We relocated from overseas and since I arrived pregnant with two other school age children things have been busy, busy. I have not attended any mommy and me groups as of yet but I have meet some wondeful moms. I would love to meet for a playdate. I'm within walking distance to Roosmmor Park.

Hi S.,

My name is H. and I live in Cypress, not too far from you. I used to have a www.meetup.com playgroup for Moms in the area, but it ended up being a lot of work, and not a lot of participation, so I quit doing it about a year ago. I also have 3 year old son, and 6 1/2 year old girl, too. I work almost full-time, but I would love to get together with you for playdates sometime!

:-)

Try the MOM's Club of Seal Beach. Great moms and lots of fun activities for kids and moms.

Dear S., I have lived in Los alamitos since birth, 49 years. When my 17 year old was little i went to kids college at cypress college. It was a mommy and me gym class very fun and a music class with teacher Gary Greeno Super fun. The kids college there is very kid friendly. Also the Los Al youth center has great classes, and the summer swim classes fill up fast so you nedd to get in early. Welcome to Los Alamitos. I am alumni of Los Alamitos Elem school , Mcaulliffe middle school ( it used to be Pine junior high) and of course Los Alamitos high school. I love living here and wouldn't live any where else. any questions J.

Hi, there! I am a member of a MOPS (Mother's of Preschoolers) of Garden Grove. It would be a bit of a trek for you...but I, too, travel from Los Al to the meetings on Thursday (I drop my 4-year-old off at Rossmoor Children's Center for preschool tues/thurs). It's worth it! I have made a lot of great friends through this group. Here is the link: http://www.mops.org. We meet on Thursdays at 9:00-ish at First Presbyterian Church
11832 Euclid St
Garden Grove, CA 92840

I have been a member of the Seal Beach Moms Club for years now and love it...let me know if you'd like more information and I can point you in the right direction. All moms from the SB/Rossmoor/Los Al areas are welcome! It's been wonderful for my daughter as well as for me. I have met lifelong friends.

Hi, S.! We have quite a bit in common. I'm in my 30's with two children, a four year old girl and a 3 year old girl. I am also a teacher in the Los Alamitos school district. I know of a couple of moms in your area who are in the same boat as you. I recommend joining the MOMS Club. I am membership vice president for the MOMS Club in my city. It is wonderful with many opportunities for both you and your children to get to know others. Go to www.momsclub.org for info on a club near you. I'd be happy to have a playdate at the park with you, as well!

Take care,
A.

Hello S.,

Have you heard of the MOMS Club? Visit their website at www.momsclub.org (I think or its .com) Seal Beach has a MOMS Club that supports Los Alamitos and Rossmoor. Their link is on the momsclub website.

Let them know that M. from Cypress MOMS Club sent you.

If you have any questions let me know.

Best of Luck,
M.

Hello!
I used to live in Rossmoor, but we are in Long Beach now. There is a great playgroup here and it's not too far for you. Check out http://groups.yahoo.com/group/lblittleones

Hi S.,
I am not in your area but I joined a moms club about a year ago and the should be one in your area- go to this web address and you should be able to find one close to home.
www.momsclub.org
This is the organization I belong to you might really like it for you and your kids!
Best of luck!

Check online at www.momsclub.org for an organized moms club in your area. I've belonged to my local moms club for 2 1/2 years and absolutely love getting together with all the moms!

Hi S.,

I recently joined and love a group of moms who meet every Thursdsay morning in Cypress. If you're feeling a little nuts with the 24-7 responsibility of being a stay-home mom, this might be the group for you.

We meet at Seacoast Grace Church (Christian) on Cerritos near Walker in Cypress. You don't have to be affiliated with the church to attend. People come from all over. Childcare is available for infants through 5-yr olds, and the children have a wonderful time and are extremely well cared for.

In the meantime, the moms (about 50 of us) meet in another building for breakfast, social time, and weekly entertainment, whether it be a guest speaker, craft projects, manicures from cosmetology students, or fitness instruction from a guest teacher. It's something different every week.
The group meets for 9 weeks at a time, once per week, from 9:00- 11:15. I believe the fee is $30.00 for the mom and $35.00 per child, but I'm not positive.

If this is something you'd be interested in, check it out at www.seacoastgrace.org ... it's called Moms Together. I could introduce you to the group if you'd like to try it out. You are welcome to visit without having to join. I'm really glad to have found it - my daughter loves it and I've made some new friends.

Hi S.!
I live in El Dorado Park Estates - just moved from Los Altos. I have a 2.5 yr old & 6mo. old (both girls)! I've been a member of the Long Beach Little Ones since fall 2005 when it was started (12 members). It's a yahoo group and there are members (now over 300) all over LB and surrounding areas. They have a calendar and lots and lots of activities/playdates. I don't go to that many because it seems most of my day is spent juggling naps - but we try! Log on and check it out/join. I've met some really great moms/kids. Feel free to email me if you want to get together. I'm busy Wed & Fri but other days are ok!

J. (mom to Gianna & Celeste)
