New mums who work - PlayGroup

Post by frenee » Thu, 27 Aug 2009 11:48 am

Im a working mum with an active 11 month old looking for a playgroup that operates during the weekends or saturday morning ideally.

Unfortunately all the ones that I know of only happen during the week when Im not available.

Anyone out there know of any or are there other mums who would be interested in getting together on saturday morning?

Hello
We will be moving to Singapore in 3 weeks time and I'll be in full time work probably a week after that. My boy is also 11 months, turning 1 very soon and I'd be very interested in meeting up with other working mums. Also, can you give me advise on childcare? Do you have your little ones in nurseries? Thanks!

there are alot of childcare facilities in singapore, with full time/part time/occasional care. best you take a look at a few when you get here and know where you are living, and can make a decision based on what you see.
my 11 month old will be staying at home with my helper who has been with us for a while, until he is about 20 months and looking for more stimulation than our home environment/helper can provide (and then he'll go into childcare). good luck with your move!

Thank you! We'll have to go condo and childcare hunting as soon as we arrive :???:

Will get back in touch when we are there and hope to catch up with you then!

I'm 7 months pregnant and will be returning to work here in Singapore after maternity leave. Would love to meet up with working mums for a chance to meet some people outside of work and of course for the baby!
If you organise something, please let me know!

Hello Ladies! We have finally arrived and live currently near Dhoby Ghaut and Little India, work is by Raffles Place. Is anyone interested in meeting up this Saturday somewhere with the little ones? Can you send me a pm or let me know if that doesn't work, then we'll try to get in touch in a different way. Looking forward to meeting you!!

Hi All!

I'm working as well, and would love to find others in a similar situation. Playgroup on the weekend would be a great idea.

Please pm me if you managed to find or put together a playgroup.
