We created this group as a fun outlet for single parents to enjoy spending time with like-minded, quality people who are positive and energetic, and are looking to enhance the social and educational experiences of their children. Additionally, the group is for our children to get out and have fun, socialize, and enjoy interesting events. We also hope that new friendships are formed along the way. Ours is an active group, with many of the events involving children’s museums, zoos, music events, p …

I'd like to form a supportive community to talk about all the issues our transgender and gender variant kids (of all ages) face, and the kinds of things we cope with as parents in our love and support for them. (It would be great if we got a little activism going too.) Personally, I am the mother of two great kids. One of them is a transgender adult. I am looking for other parents of trans and gender variant people - whether they are small children or independent adults! I am a clinical sexologi …

I provided in-home support to my parents, grandparents and friends for over 27 years. Now that they have transitioned, I find myself with a bounty of experience I wish to share with fellow caregivers. Healthcare providers, caregivers and family members would benefit from attending and sharing their experiences in order to address the many issues care givers face today.

This meetup group is for parents and parents-to-be who want to take a more natural approach to parenting. If you trust that nature is intrinsically intelligent, and are trying your best to live in harmony with it, then this group is for you. Our goal is to create a supportive community of parents who share similar philosophies and therefore similar challenges, questions and insights. We also want to provide information about new scientific research on the subjects of: - Birth - Attachment Pa …

We all long for understanding, compassion, and friendships. Often it is easier to find this among others who share our situation or outlook.

Whatever your reason, it’s time for you to get started on your journey. This group is led by a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and will help you take that f …

This group is designed for women who are longing to be a mom. If you are thinking of or going through IVF, Surrogacy or Adoption, this group is for you. I have done a lot of research and can’t seem to find much support in this area for moms-in-waiting. I would love for us to get to know each other and provide support that all so desperately need. I have an office in Burlingame where we can meet, but we can also find other locations that will work for everyone.

This will be a play/support group for parents who have small children (up to 10 years old or so) with Autism, PDD-NOS, Asperger's Syndrome, Sensory Processing Disorder, etc. I am mother to 2 wonderful children, a 4 year old boy and a 2 year old girl. Last year my son was privately diagnosed as PDD-NOS. Since then, it has been a confusing and often lonely journey as my family has been trying to get our hands around this. I am looking for other parents who are going through a similar journey to un …
