HRP Mamas believes in the importance of community, peer support, and friendships. Pregnancy, childbirth, the postpartum period, matrescence, new motherhood, new fatherhood, and becoming a parent, are major life transitions. Experiencing these life events with a solid network of peers who are in the thick of it with us, can transform isolating and difficult experiences, into the beginning of great friendships.
At HRP Mamas, we take an active role in helping mothers and fathers connect with each other for social events and support. HRP Mamas was born in 2004 as a small mothers circle and playgroup. We have made it our mission to keep this grassroots tradition alive so that new generations of mothers may find, connect, and support each other. We are so honored to know that our organization has helped families build life-long friendships.
Our team helps facilitate regular and recurring meet-ups in the HRP Mamas subgroups by due/birth date, in the HRP Papas group - and in many other affinity based subgroups. Subgroups by due/birth date offer private chat groups for mamas in Battery Park City, FiDi, Tribeca, SoHo, West Village, Chelsea, Lower East Side, and the East Village to help make meet-ups easy and friendly.
Whether you are an expectant mama, a first time mama, a new papa, or a mom of two or more children, there are meet-ups for you!
