Playdate Place Invites Moms to Gather With Little Ones

By Sponsored Advertising Content May 3, 2017

Moms with little ones, do you ever find yourself wishing you could meet up with other moms?

Being a caregiver of a little one can be an exhausting, overwhelming experience, especially if this is your first time around, or you have just moved and lost your network of family and friends.

โ€œThis was exactly the situation I was in many years ago as a young mom, with two babies under 13 months, and living 3000 miles from my hometown,โ€ says Carol Anne Friesen, founder of Welcome Little Ones Learning Center. โ€œI remember what it was like to try to find ways to connect with other moms and itโ€™s a big reason why I do what I do today. I know that if you can get moms together, they will form friendships and start to care for each other.โ€

With that in mind, Carol Anne is piloting a new project. She is offering to make a playdate space available at Welcome Little Ones Learning Center, once a month, free of charge, so moms and caregivers can come out and socialize while their children play.ย

โ€œWe have a bright, sunlit, clean, carpeted classroom with toys, a diaper changing area and restrooms close by. There is also an outside play area with swings, shaded picnic table, and lots of room to run and play.โ€

Welcome Little Ones Learning Center occupies space inside Campbelltown United Methodist Church, located at 2760 Horseshoe Pike, in the Palmyra area.

It seems fitting that Carol Anne is launching the Playdate Place in May as we celebrate Motherโ€™s Day. There are three dates being offered to start, to see what works best for moms:
Tuesday, May 16, 9:30 a.m.
Thursday ,May 18, 2:30 p.m.
Thursday, June 1, 9:30 a.m.

In addition, Carol Anne plans to begin offering fee-based Baby Sign Language Classes starting on Thursday, June 8 at 9:30 a.m. as well as a Little Ones Book Club featuring the Barefoot Books, starting in the fall.

If you are interested in attending the Playdate Place on one of the above dates or would like more information on other offerings including a 2-day, 3-day, and 4-day Preschool for children 2.7 yrs and up, Summer Camps, Baby Sign Language Classes, Play & Learn Classes in a mommy and me format for babies and toddlers, or the Kindergarten Enrichment Sing, Move, Act Classes, please check out the website at www.WelcomeLittleOnes.com or email carolanne@welcomelittleones.com.
