Let's Go to the Zoo!
On Wednesday, momstown Whitby-Ajax ventured out to the Toronto Zoo with momstown Oshawa-Port Perry. For the days leading up to the event, the weather forecast had threatened rain. It had us all quite worried that the event may have to be postponed. Thankfully the weather turned out to be perfect. There's no simpler way to put it. It was partially cloudy, mild with a cool breeze. It helped keep our kiddos all content, and happy!
The children were all quick to make friends as we headed on our trek to see all the animals that the Zoo had. They "gabbed" in their own little lingo, shared snacks and "ooo-ed" and "awed" over the animals together.
The one animal that seemed to be the hit of the day were the Polar Bears. I can't tell you how long we visited the Polar Bear nursery. There was just no pulling the kiddos away.
After visiting the polar bears we made our way around the Zoo to check out a few more exhibits. I was super excited to see one of my favorite animals the Tree Kangaroo!
Did you know that the Tree Kangaroo is known to be the most clumsy when on their feet?!? They get around on ground by hobbling and hopping. Tree Kangaroos are able to travel with agility and great lengths amongst the trees.
After visiting all the animals we headed over to the Kids Zoo, so that the kids could play and burn off any leftover steam. They had a great day, and we all can't wait to get together again soon!
Want to get in on the fun? Head on over to momstown Whitby-Ajax and register for your free trial membership! Hope to see you in the neighbourhood!

momstown Training
Last week, Nancy (Owner of momstown Oshawa-Port Perry) and I spent two days at "momstown Head Office" for an in-depth training workshop.
On the first day of training, Ann-Marie (co-founder of momstown), Nancy and I meet up for dinner at The Keg with Leanne (momstown Guelph), Christy (momstown Business Development) and Lindsay (momstown Hamilton). It was great to meet some of the momstown team, and receive their feedback as I gear up for launch of the Whitby-Ajax chapter.
On the second day of training, we took the training outdoors. It was such a beautiful day!
Overall, training went very well. I had a lot of fun, and came away from it with a lot of information. I have a lot of great ideas that I'm very excited to put into motion! I've got a lot of work to do between now and launch... I can't wait to share this journey with everyone!
Keep posted here for further updates regarding momstown Whitby-Ajax!
Cheers,
Nicole

Welcome!
Hi! My name is Nicole King, and I am “mommy” to my daughter, Cadence. Cadence is my first born, and she is gearing up to celebrate her 1st birthday in just a few weeks time. I have to say that motherhood has remarkably been one of my most treasured moments in life so far. I can't wait to watch my little one grow, develop and reach new milestones. I haven't always resided in Whitby. My husband and I moved here shortly after our wedding in late 2007. We were born and raised in Brampton. What called us out the Durham region, one might ask? The commute to Toronto from the east-end was much more accommodating for my husband, and we also loved how close knit the community is here. The community is booming with young families, and that was really attractive to us.
While on maternity leave, I found myself going stir crazy quite often. Most of my friends who had been on mat leave with me were returning to work, and there I was left not knowing what to do with myself. That's how I came to find momstown. I originally signed up for a trial period with another chapter. However, distance held me back from attending any events. I was quite letdown, and had to do something about it. That's how I came to owning my own chapter of momstown.
The countdown is now on! momstown Whitby-Ajax is set to open in mid-August 2010. I'm extremely excited to bring momstown to the Durham region! I look forward to meeting everyone soon!
Keep connected to the blog for further details as launch approaches.
Your momstown Mama,
Nicole
