Hey Kaz :hugs: I'm from Shellharbour but not living in the area at the moment. When I was at home I use to quite often attend the Sydney events which are much larger and you meet a lot more people. They are usually pretty good with the placings so that they are near public transport. I know Coopsntilly (who use to be a mod on here) use to have similar issues getting something organised in Wollongong and ended up preferring going to Sydney meets as well.

Welcome to the South Coast Mummyof2 I take it your a navy wife?? You will find there are lots of playgroups in Nowra for when you don't feel like the drive to 'the big smoke' as my inlaws (who live in Nowra) call Wollongong :D Hope your move is peaceful and without drama...

Mummyof2- You can always pick the navy families! My FIL is ex navy ;) Let me know when you are all settled.. I have a SIL on the coast who would probably know about a few playgroups and I will ask her for you.... BTW I have been told the childcare on base is brilliant! You getting naval housing? The houses are nice new and fairly big in Nowra if you havent seen them yet

Hey Mel !!!! YOU'RE BACK :smiliedance:

I will pm you my new address details etc - I am always willing to get together and see if I can make it to meet-ups. We only got the 'net back on last week after seemingly ages without it.

Guess what ... I am having #3 in January! My due date is 01/02/07, but due to complications I will be having bub at 36 weeks.

I know of a great toddler and pre-schooler playgroup in North Nowra that I used to go to and that I will be joining again as soon as bub arrives.

Take care ... Kyra :wave:

hi I live at Tapitallee (down the road from north nowra). I have a 4 year old boy. I have only been here a year and would love to meet up with new mums as well. It is so hard coming to a new area. I am currently working at Medicare at Nowra so pop in and say hi.

Hi Rhona ... :wave:

I came across your number again the other day and wondered what you were up to.

I haven't got a car at the moment (rego expired and husband who likes lego too much... grrrrr) but will be portable again soon.

Maybe we should eventually meet up as we discussed ages ago :o (sorry for the lack of contact)

Take care ... Kyra

Hi,
I am new to Nowra, will be in early Feb and I am wanting to know if there is a mothers group in North Nowra or around Nowra that is open for a new member. I have a 8 month old baby and would love to meet up with other mums and maybe join a playgroup/music baby group. If anyone knows a great swimming school and or baby group that will keep my 8 month old entertained I would be greatful. Just want to also know what activities are located in Nowra for babies from 0-2? Look forward to hearing from you soon

Hello

I'm in North Nowra. Its a lovely area. Are you going to be living in this area?

With playgroups i'm not to sure what is around as its very hard to find places that do mothers group.

There is a few good swimming places, i will PM you with them if you like.

I am due to have a baby, and also have two girls, 5 and 4. My eldest starts school next year.

My good friend is also in North Nowra and she has a little girl who is 5 months old. So maybe we can organise a get together or something when you arrive.

Hi HoneyBlossom,
Thank you for your reply. I would love to meet up when I arrive. We will be moving at the end of Jan 2008. We should be settled in Feb sometime. Good luck with your new bundle of Joy-what a wonderful Christmas present. We will be living in North Nowra. I have been told that the Bomaderry swimming school for babies is good, is that correct? Do you know if there are any music groups for babies or any activities centered around babies in Nowra? My baby is rather active at 8 months.
Good Luck with your new baby :smiliedance:and I will keep intouch with you
Thanks

Bomaderry swimming school has a great reputation, i am wanting to send the girls there, but there is one in Nowra that is near a bridge that my friend takes her baby to and she says its great.

Not sure about the music thing though.. Sorry..

Do you have a house already in North Nowra? Is it with the Navy?
