Meet ... socials
A great opportunity to meet other Mums and Dads in a similar situation to yourself. Dr Mark Loh from International Medical Clinic (IMC) will be there to answer your questions and digital baby weighing scales are available for you to use.
Please note that no food or drinks are permitted at Gymboree. However, there are a couple of benches just outside where you can feed your baby.
Also all adults must wear socks within the Gymboree centre. So please pack some in your bag before coming along, otherwise a pair can be bought for S$2.00 at the centre.
As Gymboree staff need time to clean the room before the socials they have requested that NMSG members arrive no earlier than 3pm.
Oomphatico's (#01-35 Tanglin Mall) are offering NMSG members 10% off tea, coffee and cake from 3.30pm to 6pm on socials days so you can carry on chatting over a well-deserved cupcake as your little ones (hopefully) sleep off their efforts! Please note that you have to present a valid 2010 NMSG membership card to benefit from this discount.
Please note, due to the popularity of this venue, we have started a first come / first served system as there is a limit to the number of children/adults permitted in the Gymboree Room at any one time.
The NMSG is an organisation that support and informs new mums in Singapore. We run events to enable new mums to learn about parenting issues, make friends and for under-5 year olds to play together. With this as our focus, helpers are not allowed to attend NMSG socials. Our primary goal is supporting new mums in this exciting, yet sometimes challenging, life stage.
