Jersey City Moms to Be?

Hi - I was wondering if anyone on this board lives in Jersey City. I recently moved here and have no friends with children in the area. I'm a first time mom and would love to connect with someone or someones nearby.

  • November 21. It's nice to meet you! It will be nice not to navigate this alone. I moved to Downtown JC in May, but most of my friends are still in Manhattan (I have a few in hoboken) and none of my friends are mothers.

    I know there is a Jersey City Moms group on Meetup. I have heard its very well organized, but it can also be cliquey too. I am not a member, so I cannot speak from first hand experience. 

  • Three little birds on Erie has a free weekly meetup for moms. I went last week, it was nice. The other moms there are all part of jcmoms and recommended it. 
  • Thanks for the info. Also, I stopped by Three Little Birds yesterday and they have the cutest classes. Break dancing and Super Hero classes? So cute.
  • Check out the jersey city moms meetup. Awesome reviews.
  • Has anyone tried the prenatal yoga classes at Three Little Birds? Any thoughts? :)
  • Hi,

    I also in JC Downtown and moved here from Manhattan in October. I have a 20 months old daughter and my due date is May 19th. So far I don't really know any other pregnant moms here and it would be nice to get to know some others.

    :)

  • Hi I'm a Bayonne mom to be!  My regular GYN doesn't deliver anymore so I'm being transferred to Dr. Brescia in Hoboken. He is part of a large practice that also has an office in Bayonne.

  • Hi all!  I'm also in Jersey City, have been here for about a year but don't really know any moms in the area.  We're expecting a boy in February 2014.  Have any of you ended up connecting so far?  Would love to join in.  Feel free to message me :)

    Looking towards the future ... is anyone planning to use / looking at day cares?  A couple of my friends were scaring me about wait lists so we just looked at a couple today.  There are a lot of local ones!

    I am due in November. We registered for daycare when I was 6 weeks pregnant, because we heard horror stories about wait lists in NYC. However, we found that most of the day cares around here have about an 8 month wait list with some of them like river school being a little longer. We got on the list at the growing tree II.
  • I Live in NB bout 10mins away from JC, a JC native. 

    OMG the day care thing is scaring me. I wasn't planning on putting him in daycare since MIL said she would watch him, but then lhis month she told me she wouldn't. Freakin oUT!. (due in november) =(


  • Hi Ladies,

  • That's great. Congrats. Is this your first?
  • It is our first! Super excited :)
  • I live in downtown JC and am due in early October. I would also love to connect with other expectant mothers in the area. PM me if you would like to connect!
