Fussy Foodies Seminar with Nanny Robina

Nanny Robina (well known for her appearances on Slice TV's The Mom Show and City TV's City Line) will be hosting a great session on April 7 from 7PM to 9PM at Creative Play... What will this session cover? Fussy Foodies!

Has your once wonderful little eater suddenly become fussy? Don't worry, you're not alone! Picky eaters, especially toddlers, typically resume normal eating habits in no time.

Stop stressing over just how much food has been eaten and how much has been thrown across the floor. Come and join me at this work shop and find out what it takes to prevent your child from ever becoming a picky eater! I will start with the introduction to baby food, textures and taste; do you know why many babies refuse to eat?

Or are they just telling you they are ready to be rid of the runny food and move on more solid food!

You'll leave the class with the parenting tools that will aid you in putting-the-breaks to bad behaviour, reinforce positive behaviour and coping with those unwanted shenanigans at the table. Plus, I will teach you the tricks of introducing new foods without the food war. You do not have to hide the veggies in order to have your child except them and eat them!

The fee is just $20/mom. momstown members can pay via paypal right from the event listing on our calendar, but if you or a friend have not yet joined momstown but would like to attend the seminar, please email info.whitby-ajax@momstown.ca and directions to the location will be given to you and payment arrangements can be made! All registrants must pre-pay for this class!

Creative Play Meet 'n Greet

This past Friday, we met up with many momstown Whitby-Ajax Moms and tots at Creative Play for our monthly meet 'n greet. Our monthly meet 'n greets are always a very popular event across the board as it gives Moms a chance to get out and connect with each other, while the little ones burn off some steam. We do often see many familiar faces, but the event is always open to everyone - so we get to meet many new faces too!

Check out some of the great fun we had this month at Creative Play:

If you didn't have the chance to make it out this month, don't worry! Our next Monthly Meet 'n Greet is scheduled for February 11th. If you'd like to attend CLICK HERE or email info.whitby-ajax@momstown.ca to find out how.

Monthly Meet & Greet at Creative Play!

Wow! We had such an amazing time yesterday morning at our Meet 'n Greet at Creative Play. It was so much fun for both the Moms and kids alike. All the Moms had the chance to mingle, chat and enjoy their coffees; all whilst the little ones ran and played.

There was so much to do at Creative Play. It was sure not to be a bore to anyone. They had everything from cars, train tracks, and a "roller coaster" for the children to ride on. All of which had the kids lining up for their turn.


There was also a large play structure, hockey and ball play area, an imagination station, jumping castle, large indoor playground structure with slides and an infant play area. There was something there for children of all ages!


The event was scheduled to run from 10AM to 11:30AM, but the kids were having too much fun to leave. Thankfully the party room was free, so the kids got to snack and enjoy their lunches in there with Mom and continue with play again. How could you want to leave a fun play place, like this?!

If you didn't have a chance to make it out to the Meet 'n Greet this month, don't worry... we will be doing it all again next month on December 10th. That's right... momstown Whitby-Ajax and Creative Play have formed a partnership which will surely have some great perks for momstown members! To RSVP for our next event, visit our event calendar.

Nanny Robina: Toddler Shenanigans

Last Friday evening, momstown Whitby-Ajax was invited out to Creative Play Indoor Playground for a 2-hour Toddler Shenanigans seminar hosted by the ultimate Nanny, Nanny Robina.

For those who are unfamiliar with Nanny Robina, she has been a Nanny for over 30 years and is well-known as the resident Nanny on the Slice Networks TV show 'The Mom Show' and for her role on CityTV's 'Cityline'.

We had such great fun learning the in's and out's of toddler shenanigans with Nanny Robina everything from Temper Tantrums, Bottle to Sippy Cup, Dropping the Soother, Potty Training, etc. was covered. We shared many great laughs as we heard some of the funny stories surrounding the Nanny's experiences over the years. It's safe to say all the momstown Moms walked away with a vast full of knowledge that we couldn't wait to put into motion.

We can't wait to team up again with the Nanny again in the future for another great seminar!
