Hi, i was wondering if anyone knows of mother-toddler groups in the Rome area or would like to start one

I'm going to be moving to Rome in August and will probably be seeking something out of the sort as I will have a 5 month old by then. Let me know if you discover anything. Maybe we could start something ourselves!

I know that there is an English language preschool in Rome as someone I knew sent her 3 year old there. NOt sure what it's called though. Maybe it's affiliated with Santa Susanna - why don't you give them a call?

You mean August next year? I hope i'd find something by then (in which case i'll let you know) but i'd really like to start one up. I don't suppose you'd know your whereabouts yet.

Hi Mauro and all,

I would be interested in participating. My daughter is 13 months and we are located in the Garbatella zone (near Stazione Ostiense). Let me know. My email is micherine@yahoo.com.

We sent our wee girl to 'Tot's World'. It's a nursery close to and between FAO and Piramide, and we would recommend it if that's the kind of thing you are looking for. There was talk of it moving but I think that it was opening up another branch rather than shutting down the original. I can find out more if there is interest.

That sounds very interesting. Bit out of reach for us maybe but thanks a lot anyway.

hi Michelle, in the end we've not done anything but we'd still like to start a group if we can't find one. Thing is, we're located in castelli (south of rome) and getting into town it's a bit of a problem

Hi Moms and Dads of Rome!
I know that there is an English-speaking playgroup in the (Anglican?Lutheran?) church on Via Babuino. Sorry, I can't remember the church but it is the only one there; I believe they meet on Thursdays and I have heard from others that they are enjoyable. I am working and can't make it to daytime meetings but if anyone is interested in weekends or late afternoon play groups, let me know!
