The Mothers of Malverne (MOMs) began in 1978 when two mothers of preschoolers met and realized that
there were others who also felt somewhat isolated and in need of support through the adventures, joys, and difficulties of
raising small children. They put an ad in a local newspaper asking to meet other interested mothers. That first
MOMs meeting of 18 women was the seed for what has blossomed into the Mothers of Malverne of today. Today the MOMs includes
women from many communities in Nassau County.
Our Mission
The MOMs is a club for mothers of young children. It is designed to function as a cooperative
support group and social network for mothers as they face the challenges of child rearing.
Our Events
The MOMs meet on the 15th of every month. Some months we have informal
meetings where we discuss upcoming events and parties and just chat and catch up with each other. Some months we have
a "Moms Night Out" and get together for dinner, coffee, dessert, or another fun activity.
We have children's events throughout the year, including a Halloween party, Breakfast with Santa, and an
Easter party and egg hunt. You can also form playgroups with other MOMs members.
Fun for Moms
Book Club - Book
clubs are a great way to enjoy a relaxing evening of conversation. They provide an opportunity to form new friendships
and to enhance existing ones.
The Book Club will be meeting towards the end of February to discuss Freedom, by Jonathan Franzen.
Email the MOMs if you are interested in joining us.
Walking Group - Exercise
while chatting with friends. We usually walk in the evenings at the track at Malverne High School. Email the MOMs
if you are interested in joining us.
