Waterloo Region Down Syndrome Society Mothers' Connection
Mothers' Connection
As part of our new parent support program, we created the Mothers' Connection group. This group of mothers with children with Down syndrome between the ages of birth to 6 years meets each Wednesday afternoon. Our mothers have found this opportunity to be an incredibly supportive experience where they can share their unique hopes, fears and goals for their families. They also share a lot of very practical information and occasionally have speakers come in to educate them. During this time their children get to attend preschool in an inclusive setting. We know that as parents of a child with Down syndrome, that support from other parents has been paramount and we would like to ensure that new parents are able to join our Mothers' Connection as soon as they are ready. If you are a mom of a child with Down syndrome from birth to 6 years and you would like more information regarding joining our Mothers' Connection, please contact Cherie Blair by clicking here
