How do you find a playgroup?

[Lou]

Hey

I'm really keen to get Isaac socialising with other bubbies and have no clue as to how to go about finding a playgroup I had a look on my local councils website and the playgroups are for 2 years +. Maybe its more coffee and chat mornings or something I should look for?

Hi hun.

i take Dior to one its great

go to this

http://www.childcarelink.gov.uk/index.asp

go to postcode search
put your postcode in
choose your area
click childcare search
at the bottom click toddler group
then it lists them all.

i turned up to one i hated it never went back i was nearly put of but next week i went to a different one. loved it made loads of new mates its great i go every week

Hi

Thanks for your replies. Yeah Dionne thats just the sort of thing I'm looking for. I'll have a look at that link when I get a minute later. I've got the doctors today for Isaacs follow up PCV jab so I'll ask about a list of playgroups.

Cheers !

(I hope all the mums I meet are as friendly as you lot lol. I'm dreading the whole social part of it. I'm gonna feel like I'm being watched with Isaac and judged but I suppose we all feel like that at first?!) Wish me luck heehee
