FUN Mothers’ Club

This is a fantastic club, with inexpensive dues, run by volunteer moms for any parent out there looking for advice, connections, play dates, moms nights out, support and FUN! I was introduced to it by a mom while in line at the post office one day, and I went on to become a member, then volunteer on the board, and eventually was the VP and then the president. I believed in what the club does and provides the community THAT much! Join, you won’t regret it. I’m still friends with many of the moms I met and my kids are now 11 and 13!

Drum roll please!!! For my 1000^th review, it will be for the F.U.N. (Fremont, Union City, Newark) Mom’s Club! I joined this club a little over a year ago after moving to Newark and stumbled upon this club on Unilocal and am glad that I did. Being a mom can often times be isolating and moving to a new area can make things more difficult. This club makes a point of getting to know its members personally and encouraging that face to face connection.
There are many activities that the club rolls out such as the monthly mom’s night out and coffee socials, family events at Aqua Adventure, Easter egg hunt, Christmas Party, and the May Pampering event (exclusively for Moms). Aside from the social activities, the club also has a Maternity Closet which provides free clothes for expecting moms and povides meals to moms in need. The club also has a chat forum on Big Tent where you ask feedback on various topics,
There are various subgroups you can join — Working Moms, Playgroups, Volunteer, etc. There is an affordable membership fee which helps to put on these great events. I’ve met a lot of wonderful and friendly moms that have made my role as a mom a lot less lonely.

This is probably the best «Moms Club» I’ve ever seen or heard of! Aside from being an excellent resource for new and existing parents, the level of knowledge among the members is fantastic. There are women from all walks of life, personal and professional — and is overall a very culturally diverse group. And, it’s also a great balance between working mom’s and stay-​at-​home mom’s as well as new mom’s and mom’s with children into their teens!
At first, I was more just an observer who just loved reading the message/​chat boards, monthly newsletters and reference guides. And then slowly I came to attend family events and then became more and more involved. It’s about giving back to and being involved in your community as well as knowledge-​sharing.
We offer one another support as mothers and friends. There are several family events, kids outings, play groups, Moms Night Out, and Speaker presentations throughout the year.
Overall, I would HIGHLY recommend any parents in the Fremont/​Union City/​Newark area to join — we all have so much to learn from one another!

I found the FUN Mothers’ Club after I gave birth to my first born. I felt so isolated and alone and when I found this group of women I felt hope! FUN Mothers’ offers so many different experiences from play groups, to book clubs, to a monthly newsletter, to online chat, to coffee socials, to kids outings and family parties and more! There is definitely something to meet the needs of every mother!
New membership requirements are moms with children ages 0 to age 5. Continuing members stay on to enjoy the benefits of the various activity’s now that their children are older and they can attend events more easily. Some choose to take a mentoring role and aide the newer moms who are struggling with various challenges of having younger children.
My family has «grown up» in the FUN Mothers’ Club and I am ever so grateful for the experiences, support and opportunities I gained from being a member of this wonderful club!

This club is AMAZING! I didn’t join when pregnant with my first daughter as I knew I was going back to work and assumed it was just for stay-​at-​home moms. I joined while pregnant with my second kid as they have a great preschool directory. fair and I wanted to find a great place for my older daughter. While I ended up going with a preschool my Ped recommended, I’m so glad I joined as there are so many benefits to being a member! The Maternity Closet offers free maternity clothes (picked up a cute dress and some great pants which would’ve cost me more than membership dues right there!), a Pampering night event (I got a free manicure and met some lovely ladies), lots of «mom’s nights out» at local restaurants (the club covers the first $ 50 in appetizers!) and other great options like the In-​A-​Pinch meal service where moms volunteer to bring your family a meal after you give birth!
Plus, there’s a subgroup for working moms so I don’t feel like it’s just for SAHMs! I also like checking the on-​line message boards and connecting with other parents there.
I STRONGLY recommend every pregnant woman in the Tri-​City area join. You’ll get back benefits worth way more than your membership dues!

This mother’s club is a great resource for any new mom with children from ages 0 – 5 years old. We are an awesome group of mothers that provide support and social interaction to each other. I am so glad to be a part of this club which has playgroups, activities for kids, mom’s, dad’s and the entire family. My favorite thing about this group is the chat forum and preschool directory. I encourage everyone to at least check us out and tell all your friends about us. I have not looked back since joining about 4 years ago.

This club is great!!! LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE it!
Joined last year and they have so many events and benefits. Just this weekend we got discounted tickets for the circus!
Last Christmas we got seats in the bleachers for the San Jose Holiday parade. This is a great place to go if you have preschool kids. Lots of members, lots of meetings and events planned for the kids and even playgroups. They have it all. Not to mention a babysitting co-​op and a cooking co-​op
try it out!

This Moms’ Club is an excellent resource for new moms, adoptive moms, lonely moms, nervous moms and also for dads. The focus is on parents of young children (pre-​school) but no-​one is excluded. The group meets on the first Tuesday of each month at the Newark Community Center from 7−9pm, but that’s not all! There are dozens of outings and activities available each month. They have many sub-​groups, including a Babysitting Co-​op and In-​A-​Pinch, which is other moms who will bring dinner to your house when you are postpartum or ill and can’t get around well by yourself. They have playgroups galore: with and without siblings for all age ranges, special needs, languages, ethnicities and locales. The group boasts a large volunteer board that’s involved in local community activities (e.g. Relay for Life) and being a member will often get you discounts for local shops and services. FUNMC has a library of materials that can be borrowed by members and offers an online «chat» group that offers «it worked for me» advice, restaurant reviews, travel help and sales/​giveaways of baby items no longer needed by not necessarily worth listing on a bigger community like Craigslist. Check ‘em out. They’ve helped me enormously during these early years of motherhood!
