LOCAL MOM SCOOP
I have been, or can be if you click on a link and make a purchase, compensated via a cash payment, gift, or something else of value for writing this post. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.
When you become a mom, it can be a bit of a mindblowing experience. It’s the most wonderful thing that can happen to you, however, it can be scary at times as well as lonely. Surrounding yourself with other moms is one of the most important things you can do for yourself. You need that support of other moms to reassure you that you’re doing a great job. You’ll need advice on what diapers to buy or who is the best pediatrician in town.
It’s not just about the new mom either, as your kids grow new questions and situations will arise and you’ll need moms more than ever.
Not only will you need other moms, but self-care is just as important. Doing something for yourself like exercise, meditation, getting your body moving can give you back the confidence you need.
I’m sure your thinking to yourself, “Where you can I find moms near me?”.
If you’ve been wondering how to meet other moms in your area, I have the South Florida scoop for you.
FIND YOUR Y MOM TRIBE
HOW ARE YOU GOING TO MEET OTHER MOMS?
Well, I have an exciting announcement.
Y Moms can be found at the YMCA of South Palm Beach County!! All YMCA Mom Members are potential ‘Y Moms’.
Know that Y Moms come in all shapes and sizes, ages and ethnicities, and can be found at the DeVos-Blum Family Y in Boynton and Peter Blum Family Y in Boca.
WHAT IS A Y MOM?
The Y Mom is a member of the YMCA of South Palm Beach County. She is ready to bond with other moms through exercise, motherhood and maybe a cup of coffee.
WHO WILL WATCH MY CHILD?
There are not many places where you can drop off your child for up to two hours a day. The YMCA has a Child Watch Center just for you. This safe, enriching child care and development centers were created so Y Mom members have a worry-free opportunity to pursue their own interests and activities.
The Child Watch Center is for children 6 weeks to 11 years old and allows play time up to two hours a day. For more information, click here.
