Hey Emily,
I am wondering if you ended up finding a good mothers group in the southern suburbs? I live in Happy Valley and my little boy, also Ethan, is 11 months old.

Hey Kirsty,
I did find one through Child and Youth Service which started on the 17th Oct, the only problem is that Ethan is 3-4 months older than all of them since i waited so long to join one. But i have found a baby gym which is held at Trott Park community centre next to Trott Park tennis courts. It's a gym all set up for babies, Ethan really enjoyed it. At the end of each session we all sit in a circle and sing nursery rhymes to/with your baby. I hang around a little bit afterwards and talk with some of the Mums and also my close friend goes also. It's on every Wednesday 12:15pm to 1:15pm and it costs $8.50. The babies range from 4 to a year old. Let me know if you are interested in going and i'll keep an eye out for you!

Emily
p.s Good choice in naming your child Ethan
