History
How the MOMS Club began
In 1983 Mary, an at-home mother in California, decided
she was tired of being alone at home. She wanted to meet other
at-home mothers, and she wanted to find other at-home children
for her children to play with. To her surprise, she discovered
there were no organizations that met during the day and allowed
her to come with her baby and preschooler. So she decided to start
a brand new organization just for at-home mothers, and the MOMS
Club was born.
The chapter she started was so successful that she knew mothers
in other areas must be needing the MOMS Club, too. Soon she and
other volunteers were helping mothers start MOMS Clubs across the
country and around the world.
Today, the MOMS Club is an international nonprofit support network.
We have over 2,000+ chapters with more than 100,000 members across the
United States. International chapters exist in Belgium, Canada, the
Czech Republic, Ghana, Italy, Slovenia, and South Africa. More are
forming as we speak.
