Full House MOMs & Dads offers its members a wide variety of social activities, support services and educational resources for families of multiples throughout the year. In addition to offering crucial support to its member families it also provides fun ways for children and parents to socialize and get to know other families of multiples.

Monthly Meetings - for more information, contact Meeting Coordinator

The club meets on the second Thursday of each month from 7:00-9:30 p.m. Our gatherings always include relaxing time to socialize with other parents, but we maintain a bit of structure, too. With the exception of December's meeting, which is more of a social event, meetings feature a speaker or panel of speakers who discuss various topics relating to families with multiples. From 7:00 - 7:30 p.m. we begin with "Multiple Conversations" where we offer an ice-breaker activity or "Question of the Evening." It is an informal way to meet others and talk about various issues regarding raising multiples. Some of the best parenting wisdom we receive comes from other moms and dads. All parents and caregivers are encouraged to attend and babies are always welcome. Expectant mothers of multiples are encouraged to attend our monthly meetings, too. View the calendar to find the date of our next meeting.

Bulletin Board - contact Webmaster

If you have a parenting question, want to have a discussion, buy or sell things, or are seeking or want to recommend professional services, you can do it all on the FHM bulletin board.

Support Library - position vacant > Join the board

FHM has a library of books, magazines, and kids books related to having and raising multiples. The library is available at a local bookstore.

Playgroups - contact Playgroup Coordinator

One of the benefits of membership in FHM is the large network of families involved in playgroups. Our playgroup coordinator is happy to match FHM families with an existing playgroup or facilitate the creation of a new playgroup of families with multiples around your childrens' age who might live near you.

Outings and Social Events - contact Outings Coordinator or Social Coordinator

Full House MOMs offers members several weekday outings each month. We also host several larger weekend parties each year - including a Summer Pool and Picnic, Fall Pumpkin Patch visit, Halloween Party, Milk & Cookies with Santa, and Easter Egg Hunt. These are very popular events that allow the entire family to have a fun, FHM sponsored outing where you can socialize with other FHM Families. Our outings and parties are a great way to get out of the house and connect with other families of multiples.

Parenting multiples is unimaginably rewarding - but there are also days that are incredibly challenging. At Full House MOMs, we want you to know that we are here to listen, help, and understand. We want to support you in whatever way we can. We have a team of Support Service members that can help you with the challenges of having and parenting multiples. Whatever your issue, we will do our best to assist you.

Below is a quick view of our available services.

Expectant Parent Coffee Hour - contact Support Services Coordinator

Expectant parents are invited to join our Support Services team and experienced parents of multiples for a question and answer, problem-solving get together every other month. It's an informal way to discuss issues and questions you might have about parenting multiples. Meetings often have topics, but any question or discussion item is welcomed. Experienced members facilitate the meetings and it is a great opportunity to meet other expectant parents and get your questions addressed. You can see the current newsletter for more information about the next coffee hour.

New & Expectant Parents Brunch - contact Brunch Coordinator

Support Services welcomes new and expectant parents at a special monthly brunch. This is a wonderful opportunity to get together with other families facing similar joys and challenges of multiple newborns or upcoming births. Club members assist the Support Services team by attending the brunch and offering their support, advice or assistance with the babies so that new parents can relax, meet others and enjoy the morning. See the newsletter for more information on the next FHM Brunch.

Meals for MOMs - contact New Parents' Coordinator

The first weeks of parenthood can be overwhelming for anyone but even moreso for parents of multiples. There often seems to be little time in the day to take care of yourself. FHM volunteers want to help out by offering to provide you with a wonderful, nourishing meal for your family delivered to your door, free! As a member of FHM, we ask that you please contact us if you have had your babies and would like a meal delivered.

Preemie Closet/Nursing Pillows - contact Preemie Closet Coordinator (Amy)

We have a preemie clothes closet that was formed by donations from club members. Additionally, items such as nursing pillows specifically designed for twins are loaned to any club member who needs them. Please contact Support Services Coordinator Sheila Harter if you are interested in borrowing or donating an item to the club.

Breast-Feeding Questions & Concerns - contact Support Services Coordinator

Although breast-feeding multiples can be challenging, for most moms it is possible. We can provide you with support from mothers who have successfully breastfed their babies. We can also help you find qualified lactation assistance. We do not offer any medical advice. If your baby(ies) are not gaining weight, please consult a health professional immediately. If you have any questions or concerns about breastfeeding, contact us.

In addition to the expertise of our members, Support Services can connect you with a vast number of valuable community resources. If you have specific questions or special needs please contact us.

We are here to support families of multiples who might be struggling economically. The Community Outreach Committee collects baby/child supplies, equipment and clothes donated by the general membership for distribution to families who need these items.
