HAMILTON-WENHAM MOTHER'S CLUB

Celebrating families of every shape, size and makeup

Welcome!

We are an inclusive family-oriented organization striving to support our community and enrich the lives of our members.

We are an inclusive and family-oriented organization that strives to support our community and enrich the lives of our members by cultivating connections and friendships between local parents, caregivers, and their children.

HWMC provides social events, resources, and education to families across the north shore of Massachusetts. As a member-driven, public-spirited group, we actively invest in and work to build an uplifting and inclusive environment for our membership. While we are founded upon a recognized need to support the unique role of motherhood, we know that parenthood takes many forms and that our children and families face varying circumstances and needs. We welcome and celebrate families of every shape, size, and makeup.

Upcoming events

Top story

May was another full month of great activities! We had a blast at the Derby Party, worked hard at True North on our Pilates form and had a great discussion of The Wedding People at Book Club. We look forward to seeing the fun new tie dyed shirts the kids worked on this past week!

We cannot wait for our final event of the year: the Mom’s Night Out Lawn Party, lovingly referred to as the MOTHER of Lawn Parties. Please join us! We’ll have food, drinks, live music from the talented Steve Dennis and a crew of babysitters at the ready to drive folks home carpool style. Safety first - so feel free to just get dropped off!

Another friendly reminder that as the school year winds down, so do we as we prepare for our volunteers to take the summer off. However, Book Club and Dad’s Night Out will still meet and our WhatsApp channels from this year will remain open for you to plan your own meetups and adventures over the summer.

Finally, Michelle, our Civic Engagement Lead, has important updates regarding the upcoming Special Town Meetings in Hamilton and Wenham on June 9th at 6:30PM. There are a bunch of childcare options for ages 0-12 available in addition to a family-friendly separate kindergarten classroom in Wenham and other family friendly spaces at both Buker and the middle school - with pizza for sale! Please check out her section below and be on the lookout for future emails with further updates as more childcare options are in the works. We’ve also created this website that is open to nonmembers as well if you need to share these resources with other families you know in town.
