Sydenham, Forest Hill, Crystal Palace and Dulwich

[Holymoly321]

I'm a new mum with a 7 week old DS. I'm used to working in Central London in quite a stressful job and so am all new to this SAHM stuff. Wondered if there were any other mums in the area who would like to meet up?

The more the merrier! So - are we meeting next Friday at 2.30? I'll be there and will wrap a pink scarf around DS's buggy so you'll know who I am - BB, Pogface, if you can make it then you'll already recognise me! Look forward to meeting you all.

Hiyya - seems most people are meeting on 10th. I can't do that date but I can do tomorrow, Friday 3rd?

Anyone up for that?

ok belgianbun - lets have a west norwood meet up tomorrow!

have you been to the salvation army play group (sounds scary but it's ok actually). I think it's at 10am near Tulse Hill. Or the library? Can't think of anywhere else can you?

BB - what are you like?! I'm meeting whoever turns up next Friday - the 10th. Have fun tomorrow girls if you're meeting up in West Norwood / Dulwich. and I will be at Horniman's cafe next Friday at 2.30 - pink scarf tied round the buggy - which is a brown McClaren! Have fab weekends girls.

I'm not gonna be able to make today - we've had an awful night and the only place were are going today is the doctor. Hope to meet up soon, I'll logon again soon. Keep well.

Hi All, Lots of activity here. Yes, Smiling I'm back at work and I'm sort of enjoying it. Good to use my brain again! Am missing dd2 though who is growign so quickly.... Don't miss dd1 so much. She is hard work! If I get a Friday off in the near future I'll log on and see if there's any meet ups.
West Norwood Mums, there's a brilliant art class on a Saturday morning run by Surestart if you're in the area. My elder one loves it, and dd2 loves sitting in the baby area watching the bigger ones.

Just checking to see if anyone is going to make it on Friday afternoon... I'm still up for it if you are

Hello mums,

I have just moved to the area (between Forest Hill and Honor Oak) and was wondering if you could help me with info on mum and tod groups or gatherings??
Thanks

Hello. I have got my scan tomorrow so sadly won't be there. Hopefully meet you all at the next meet up. x

Hey girls, no worries - will leave it until next time! Welcome Clements - how old is / are your lo's? I mostly know about groups in Sydenham, but I do regularly go to 'Baby Bounce' at Lewisham library on Thursday mornings which is lots of fun for the bubs - it's at 11.15. Also, there is a story/song session at Forest Hill library on Tuesday mornings at 10am (I think) - havent' been to that one yet so can't tell you much about it. If you give Lewisham town hall a ring they should be able to send you a leaflet with a list of all the baby/toddler groups in teh area.

Hi Clements. Welcome to the area . Forest Hill Library run a baby and toddler session on Tues at 10 and Thurs at 2. Dulwich Library runs a baby and toddler session on Thursday at 10.30 and 1.30. There is a very good mum and toddler group at the Baptist Church on Perry Rise on a Tues and Thurs morning but there is a waiting list, phone the church to contact the woman who runs it. There are some more around Honor Oak but I'm afraid I don't personally know them. Like Smiling said, phone the council and they will send you the list. There are lots of music groups in the area too - The Tickle Shop, Monkey Music, Hickory Jig, Music for Little People, Caterpillar music, Sing and Sign - try googling them for class details. Also, you could try searching mumsnet as people are always chatting about activities and you might find some information on an old thread. Good luck!

Thanks for all the info . My little boy is 12 months and the next one is due later in the year. I look forward to seeing some of you at these groups over the coming weeks.

BB - be lovely to catch up. Will check diary and let you know when a good day for me is. At the mo it looks a bit chocca but will double check!

BB - sorry I~'ve been so slack! Yes, lets arrange something - get this thing back on track! Bummer about you going back to work - but great for your bank balance!Why don't we try and put a date in the diary? Everyone?

Hello, I'm up for it. Haven't made it to a meet up yet so it would be great to meet a few people. Would Friday 31st suit anyone? Haven't been to Dulwich Picture House (is it the Gallery), but willing to give it a go!

How about next Tuesday afternoon? That's TUESDAY 4th OF APRIL say, 2.30 at Horniman's cafe? Come on people! Lets get this together before our kids graduate from university
