A Love-ly Breakfast with momstown

The momstown mamas got together last Saturday morning to wake up and greet the day with a Love-ly breakfast with momstown. On the menu? Cereal of all shapes, sizes and flavours courtesy of Kellogg's! While the families arrived and got coffee and tea, the kids dug right into the crafts and coloring supplies. It wasn't long before breakfast was served and everyone was reminded why cereal makes a great morning opener. One lucky mama had the opportunity to take home a special prize and every momstown mama was satisfied with the very generous take home treat bag filled with Kellogg's cereal and other goodies. Indeed it was a lovely morning munching on cereal and enjoying the company of the fabulous momstown Edmonton North mamas!

Moms helping moms

It's tough to find a babysitter. It takes time to get to know someone, ensure they have some child care training and feel confident that they are the right "fit" for your child. Not only are are good sitters hard to come by but they're expensive too. Gone are the days where babysitters only charged $5 per hour. These days, a good sitter can cost you anywhere from $10 to $20 per hour meaning your night out with hubby or the ladies, just got a whole lot more costly!

Have no fear, the momstown Babysitting Coop is finally here! It's putting away the worries that some 16 year old babysitter won't know how to soothe your screaming, teething infant. It's saving you a huge chunk of change on inflated babysitter fees and it's going back to what momstown does best: it's moms helping moms.

momstown Edmonton met on Tuesday night to get this well planned and regulated Babysitting Coop off the ground and into action. In a nut shell, moms post on our online momstown message board that a sitter is needed (no reason required because let's face it, sometimes moms just need a nap or a soak in the tub ALL ALONE!) and another momstown member offers to help them out. The exchange? Tokens. One token per hour of child minding in the hopes that moms never run out because the cycle of moms helping moms is continuous.

Have an appointment with the doctor or hair salon? Want to go out with hubby to a movie? Don't have any friends or family you can lean on for child minding? The momstown babysitting coop is here to help!!
