About Us | | | The MOMS Club began in 1983 when Mary James, 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. When she discovered there were no other organizations that met during the day and allowed her to come with her baby and preschooler, 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, 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!
We now have 2,000 chapters in the US alone and over 100,000 members! We also have International chapters starting too! The San Luis Obispo County (South) chapter was started about 15 years ago, and has an average of about 45 to 50 members at any time. Our members live in Pismo Beach, Grover Beach, Arroyo Grande, Oceano, and Nipomo. We keep our activity locations near to those areas so our members don't have to drive very far to enjoy our fun activities.

Member Testimonial "I've been a member of the MOMS Club for over 2 years, and I love it! I felt so isolated after leaving my career behind to become a stay-at-home mom. I met so many great moms and kids, and I credit all the playgroups and activities for my son's recent ease in transitioning to preschool!" - Trish, Nipomo mom to 2 boys | | |
