New and current resources for mommy and baby in Florence, SC

Posted by Florencemom.com on Saturday, October 21, 2017 Under: For Kids
I'm always looking for new resources on places for mommies and babies. Here are some current resources for new mommies and babies in Florence, SC. 

MOPS in Florence, SC: There is a MOPS (Mothers of Preschoolers) group in Florence that meets twice a month from September to May. They take a break during the summer time. This is a group of mothers who have kids from 0 - 5 years old. Ladies who are expecting a baby are also welcome to attend. They meet twice a month on Tuesdays from 9AM - 11AM at Church of Sandhurst. In addition to providing a place for mothers to meet other mothers, childcare is available during these meetings in a program called MOPPETS. Membership dues are per semester and also a minimal fee per child per semester for each semester if childcare is needed. To get more information, go to: https://www.facebook.com/FlorenceSCMOPSofCAS/

Florence Moms and Tots (Florence, SC) from Meetup: There was a new moms group in Florence that I found on Meetup.com but they had cancelled this group. Maybe in the future, a new leader will come on there and create a new group so make sure you check on there once in awhile!

'Bugs' Class for ages 4 months - 10 months old and 'Birds' Class for 10 months - 19 months old at The Little Gym: Don't think that your babies are too little to be enrolled in a physical development class like these! They are very fun and interactive and each accompanying parent with each baby in the class are participating the whole way, helping your babies develop into stronger human beings. Furthermore, you are also creating a fun bond and memories between parent and child along the way (essentially each parent comes for free because you only pay membership for the baby)! With music playing throughout each session, babies and their accompanying mothers (or fathers) are directed by instructors on how to encourage strength and courage in these little ones. To see their current schedule, go to: https://www.thelittlegym.com/florenceSC/Schedules. The great thing about these classes is that you are guaranteed to meet other moms with babies within the same age group. This is especially beneficial if you are a new mom or new in town and would like your baby to socialize with other babies around the same age.

Junior League of Florence: If you're into volunteering and helping non-profit organizations, Junior League of Florence is a great organization for any woman. Although you'll probably need to leave your child with your partner or babysitter when you attend meetings and volunteer, but you'll most likely meet other moms here. They require a minimum amount of commitment but they throw great annual events like Merry Marketplace, Shamrock and Touch-A-Truck. You can go to their website here: http://jrleagueofflorence.com

About Me


FlorenceMom.com Originally from Southern California, we had moved here when my husband got out of the military and began his civilian work at the Duke Energy Power Plant in Hartsville. I had a hard time finding family-friendly resources online in Florence when we moved here in 2013 so I started writing and taking pictures of our adventures and places we've been. This website is a collection of several years of adventures. I hope this helps you as a transplant or new mom. I have two sons who were both born in Florence at the McLeod Hospital.
