East Side Mothers & More
Our Local Chapter
East Side Mothers and More, formerly known as the Bellevue Chapter, was established approximately 10 years ago. Since that time, our group has evolved to meet the various needs of the membership. Currently, the greater Seattle area is experiencing a "baby boom" and we are pleased to be seeing increased interest in our organization. In response to that interest, we will begin to host membership drives in the fall.
This is an organization composed of diverse women from many different situations. We have recently been contacted by many mothers who are relocating and wish to make connections and familiarize themselves with our area. We are also seeing interest from "seasoned moms" who may not be looking for a "traditional" mother's group with play dates, etc. but more of a social network and a forum to discuss their concerns and struggles as they debate the merits of returning to the workforce. Whatever your circumstance there is a place for you within our group and we are pleased to welcome and invite you to attend a meeting or two and selection an event such as book club, Mom's Night Out, or a lecture so you can get to know us and our members.
As mothers we understand that this organization needs to begin to communicate with members in a much more convenient format than had previously been implemented. To highlight some recent changes: in February of this year we added an E-loop for members only, and one designated for announcements open to prospective members. We have instituted many new events which include: family dinner mix ups, three play dates a week, one field trip per month, Mom's Nights Out, Mom's retreats, family events, a family camping trip, two meetings a month and special events throughout the year. Please see What's New for upcoming calendar events.
