momstown arrives in Oshawa - Port Perry!!!
Before becoming a momstown mama, I had a career that I loved, working as an Associate Director of a childcare centre. Watching children grow and develop, and being involved with the planning of an enriching program, was extremely rewarding. Even more rewarding however, was becoming a mom. My daughter Alyssa was born on March 25th, 2009. From that day forward, I knew that I would always be interested in working with young children and their families, but now my priority was to be a great mom!
I did go back to work after my maternity leave ended, but found great difficulty in working full time and making a long commute everyday. That's when I stumbled upon momstown and was shocked that I hadn’t heard of this fantastic way for moms like me to connect with other neighbourhood moms and talk about what's going on in our lives. With a monthly calendar packed full of exciting events and member discounts that I could really use, I wondered how I'd missed out on being a part of such a great opportunity sooner! I then realized that the reason I had not heard of momstown was that it had not yet reached my home town, and that is when I made the decision to open a chapter of momstown in Oshawa – Port Perry!
Finally, I've found the perfect balance in my life; an amazing family life and an exciting and fulfilling career. I am thrilled to be able to offer this amazing resource to moms in my community and to be able to tie in my love of enriching the lives of young children and their families with my desire to spend more time with my own child! I cannot wait to meet more moms in the neighbourhood and look forward to great conversation and support, and to all of the fun events where we'll make lasting friendships and memories!
Stay tuned for more details and updates as we approach the launch of momstown Oshawa – Port Perry, scheduled for late August, 2010!
Your momstown mama,
Nancy
