Hello,
I'm new to Melbourne with a baby! Lived here for 6 years but went to NZ to have bubs for 9 months. Are there any playgroups or mothers groups in the Box Hill, Blackburn area that are willing to take a mumma with a 6 month old Daughter?
I don't know anyone here and would love to make some new friends. I'm a want to be Naturopath (haven't had a chance to finish my degree) but now pretty much teach myself .. Would love to meet some like minded people to discuss ideas with....I'm a total greeny and love sports and keeping fit also..swimming..walking.. baby swim groups? anything..thanks guys

Hi, this is a bit late but are you still looking for a group in the area?

Hello! Gosh I had given up on this, but just happened to have stumbled across this message! yippeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Yes I'm still looking..well to be honest i've only tried two.
The first one didn't ring me back and then I tried Steiner ..but no, they weren't quite right.. congratulations on your 2nd son!!

Ummmm, I dont have a playgroup to go to either so i'm not much help am I! Happy to have a coffee sometime though. I'm sure there are other playgroups in the area, and maybe we could road test a few (much less daunting with someone else). Anyway PM me if you are interested.

Try ringing Koonung Cottage - it's located in Koonung Road Blackburn North.
They have playgroups. I used to go to one (my old mother's group put it together) on Wednesdays. I know though that they have other playgroups and sessions. Worth checking it out maybe?

There is also a playgroup attached to one of the Churches in Blackburn North too (I know of someone who goes to it) - but unfortunately the name of the church eludes me (could be St Johns or St Patricks or something - I don't know my churches sorry).
