Seeking Moms' Group/play Group in Naperville/Bolingbrook Area
We moved back to IL over a year ago and have not found a group of Moms' or children in our neighborhood; everyone is a touch older then myself and my kids. I would love a group to meet with and get to know!
So What Happened?™
Actually, I ended up going to Meetup.com and after one false alarm, found a wonderful Mom's group nearby in Naperville! Thanks for all the advice, Maggie

Hi,
You could try meetup.com, there is usually a small fee but the groups are usually very active too.
I also am the owner of a moms group if you are interested...the link is http://groups.yahoo.com/group/WillCountyMoms/
Thanks!

Look at meetup.com, there are a ton of play groups in your area. Good luck.

There is a moms club of Bolingbrook and we have play groups. However in order to join you need to live West of Weber. We had to divide because we got so big and then the East dismantled so if you live East of Weber you are out of luck with Moms Club unless you want to try and start it up again.
You can also look into things at the Bolingbrook Park District. There are a ton of music things, swim classes, mommy me classes. There is also a Fabulous library with storytimes etc. hope that helps pm me if you want more info!

Here is a link to the MOMs Club International. When we moved to back to LA (we are in Illinois now- again!), this group was a lifesaver for me. I really enjoyed the whole group for several years. I even sat on the board and became very active in the planning and implementing of group activities and fundraising events. Not only were there playgroups, but mom nights out and charitable work as well.
I am not sure if this is the correct location for you, but you can look on the MOMs club main webpage and hopefully one group will match up.
This is a tough time with kids. They are old enough to want to go out and do things, but it is hard to find groups. I really hope this works out for you! It was a lifesaver for me!

I have met a lot of really nice moms through Mothers & More of Dupage County. They have playgroups that meet during the day with kids (today's they are going to tour a firehouse in Lisle) and nighttime events for moms only. Once you're a member, you can attend whatever events you have time for. Since my kids are preschool age and I've gone back to work part-time, I usually only attend the group's book club meetings & holiday parties.
Here's the website:

Hi M., check Mothers and More - it's a great non-profit in the DuPage County area with playgroups. dupagemothersandmore.org
