The MOMS Club® is a wonderful way to meet other at-home mothers in your area who share your interests and concerns. We offer monthly meetings, playgroups, MOMS Night Out, weekly park days, field trips, a monthly newsletter/calendar, and service projects that help families in need.

The MOMS Club of Menifee West, California is a local chapter of the International MOMS Club®. We are a support group for at-home mothers. Although some of us do work part-time, we believe that staying home to raise our children is a fulfilling full-time job!

The MOMS Club® was founded in the Fall of 1983 by Mary B. James. The first local chapter was in Simi Valley, California. Word spread about the wonderful support that the MOMS Club® offers at-home mothers and became a national organization in 1985. We now have over 2,100 chapters with more than 110,000 members across the United States. There are 2 chapters in Menifee Valley alone!

The MOMS Club of Menifee West consists of 20+ members and is continually growing. Come visit us at our next park day or all member meeting. Please contact us to get the exact location. You probably won't be the only new person there!

Although some of us have lived here for years and are experienced mothers, many of us are new to the area or to motherhood. We all have one thing in common, the MOMS Club introduced us to other moms who stay home and soon became our friends. We are a non-political, non-religious, non-profit member-run club. When we say "member-run" we mean that everything is planned, hosted and organized by volunteers from our chapter. Attendance is up to you! You can attend all of the activities or choose just a few that fit in your schedule.

To get onto our mailing list, send an email to mvmomsclubwest@yahoo.com. We will be in touch with you to invite you to our upcoming activities. If you don't live in the Menifee, California area, contact the International MOMS Club website at www.momsclub.org to find a local chapter near you.
