It is just me or do you find yourself feelnig mixed about the support systems kitchener/ waterloo has to offer. I mean as a younger parent I find that because Im young people assume Im not sure even what a baby is thusly resulting in being talked down to, or not considered at all. I could be wrong, but then again its just me. There is healthy babies, early years, prenantal groups, breast feeding classes etc. But are they really posetive, effective, and helpful. Do you really learn anything new? or is it just a memory refreshing.

Hi Samantha, I'm sorry this is late. I'm sorry that you get the flack that you do over your sexual orientation. I'm not sure what that has to do with the kind of person or Mom you are. I haven't been to the early years centre in a while but I do go to the one at Westmount and Queen St. It is at the St.Louis school and it is really good for kids of all ages and no one will care about your sexual preferences I promise.

Hey!

I am a Kitchener mom too and a brand new mom at that. I do not even know where to bring my baby and would love to know where these centres are. The one that I did go to I had issues with because I am a gay single mom and they didn't agree with my sexual orientation. I can relate to the being talked down to part and I think that because you are seeking support it shows that you truly care about your child. I realize this is an old post but like the woman who replied before me I am brand new to this site. I hope all goes well!!

Hi Shantel, I realize that you posted this a while ago but I'm new to this site. I live in Kitchener and I take my kids to the early years centre and I wish I had done it way sooner. I'm not a young mom but I don't think that age has any bearing on how good of a mother you are and can be. I think the fact that you are looking for support shows that you are a better mom than some of the other 30 somethings I've met. I love what the early years have been able to teach me and my kids. Check it out.
