Moms & Tots

Welcome to Moms & Tots

Moms & Tots is a community of mothers of young children who are walking the journey of raising children together. We seek to build friendships, support each other in life and parenting and encourage each other to grow as a community of faith in Jesus Christ. We primarily do this by meeting for a playgroup once a week during the school year.

Wednesdays from 9:30-11:30am

If you have any questions, please contact: momsandtots@shorelinechurch.ca

Frequently Asked Questions

Mothers of children 0-6 and their children. Since our goal is to specifically encourage moms, this is not a place for daycare providers or grandparents to bring children to.
During our weekly playgroup moms have an opportunity to build friendships with other moms and visit while watching their children play together. Halfway through the morning we stop for a snack, and then shift to a program for children with songs, puppets and Bible stories. Occasionally there are crafts and special activities.
Wednesday mornings, 9:30 - 11:30 from October to May with breaks for school holidays (begins October 02, 2024).

Mothers of young children are playing a vital role in raising up the next generation, but they can often feel alone, undervalued, and unsure of what to do. We want to come alongside mothers of young children to support and encourage them during this time and help them teach their children about God.
Certainly. You are most welcome to come. You will notice that we reference the Bible often. We truly believe that God's plan for families is best and would love to share it with you. We will also be teaching the children from the Bible.
No. Moms will be responsible for their own children during this time.
Not really.  Tea and coffee will be provided for the moms each week. Families are asked to bring snacks and drinks for their children each week.
Indoor shoes or slippers, a snack (except for the first Wednesday of the month) and drinks for your family. If your child mouths toys, please bring your own from home and limit your child to those toys. Please don't bring any stuffed animals or toys for older children.
Not officially, but we would still like to know that you plan on coming. You will need to complete a permission form in order for your children to participate, but you can do that when you arrive. 
NO, please don't, unless you know it is just allergies. We want Moms & Tots to be a safe and healthy place to meet. If you or your child have been experiencing cold symptoms, please do not come to Moms & Tots until you have been symptom free for 48 hours.
Yes we do, but it is only open to moms who have attended at least one in-person Moms & Tots playgroup. We will do our best to keep the membership of this group current. This will help to maintain some privacy for group members.  
Maybe. As different families have varying comfort levels with having their pictures posted on social media, please ask permission before taking or posting any photos. Generally, it will be accepted to post pictures within the Moms & Tots Facebook group and chat.
