What to Expect at MOPS

What is MOPS?
MOPS stands for “Mothers of Preschoolers” – but don’t let that confuse you. MOPS is about meeting the needs of every mom of a child from conception through kindergarten with local groups of moms just like you.

MOPS meetings provide a way for moms to connect through teaching, discussion, activities, and crafts. Being moms is what brings us together and allows us to build a community, and a MOPS group allows you to meet and build friendships. The early years of being a mom are just as foundational to you as they are to your baby, and those years are filled with unique needs that other moms instinctively understand.During most MOPS meetings, children are cared for by volunteers from the church in a program called MOPPETS, where they experience love in a safe and fun environment. Whether you’re urban, suburban, rural, stay-at-home, working, teen, adoptive, special-needs, single or married, MOPS is for you!

Any moms with children from newborns through kindergarten age are welcome (and expecting moms too!).
