Welcome to Rhode Island New Moms Connection
Greetings Moms and Moms-to-Be! Thank you for visiting our website. Rhode Island New Moms Connection offers pregnancy groups, new mom groups, second-time-around groups (for mamas who are pregnant with their second child), and *new* evening discussion groups for moms. It is our mission to provide affordable and accessible groups to women throughout the state. You will find descriptions of our groups on this site as well as resources we find especially useful. Groups are facilitated at various locations. Please email us at info@rinewmoms.com to find the group nearest you!
We began coordinating and facilitating these groups as a means for women to share their experiences and develop a community of "Mommy Friends." Some women find themselves feeling isolated during pregnancy and new motherhood. Our structured groups allow women to feel supported while exploring their own feelings and listening to others share openly. We share ideas, answer questions, and provide information on local & national resources. Our affordable groups allow all women to participate. We believe our groups are for ALL moms ~ regardless of how you parent, where you are from, and what you're feeling. Pregnancy & new motherhood are inclusive of all women (and so are we).
These groups make a wonderful gift for a pregnant friend or new mom--or a wonderful gift for YOU!
We also offer workshops at various locations throughout RI. For more info, see below!

Workshops
*Baby Essentials: The REAL deal
This workshop is great for pregnant moms (and/or partners!). We will talk about how to best prepare for your baby's arrival. We'll identify things you need and things you can do without...as well as ways to save $$$ when preparing for your little one's arrival.
*Introducing Solids & Making Your Own Baby Food
Next workshop: September
Have you been thinking about introducing solids...or recently started cereal with your baby? If so, this workshop would be great for you! Learn more about the "signs" of baby readiness for solids, which foods are ideal "first foods", and how to make your own meals for your baby!
Disclaimer: Please heed the advice of your pediatrician if it differs from any of the suggestions provided in this workshop.
*Moms of Multiples
Are you a mom of multiples...or pregnant with two or more babies? If yes, we invite you to join us for this two week segment on parenting multiples. This discussion-based group allows you to meet other moms with twins, triplets, etc. and share the joys and challenges of having multiples. In addition, we will offer ways to save on expenses, local activities and resources that are free or low cost, and tips for getting everyone on the same schedule.
