Looking to meet Forest Hill/Dulwich mums and families to hang out!

[GlamourBug]

Hi everyone

My husband and our 1 year old recently moved to Forest Hill and are looking to meet some new local parent friends. I am a working mum but am taking a break over summer, so I'd love to have some mums to explore the area with. We are also keen to make parent friends for playdates at the weekend. We're a really adventurous family and like to be out and about, but equally happy to have a playdate/coffee date and discuss the joys & challenges of early family life!

Look forward to hearing from you.

You should come to nature play in Sydenham woods on Thursdays, find them on facebook for all the info you need.

You could try posting on the SE23.com forum as well, if you would like to make friends in FH.

Thank you!

Hello and welcome!

I've just moved to Forest Hill/Sydenham from ED and was wondering who else lives up this way. (There's an SE23 forum, but it's not as busy as this one.)

If there are quite a few of us, perhaps we could arrange some local mum drinks/a get-together with the children.

[GlamourBug]

That sounds a plan. Happy to organise if mums/families get in touch with us.

Verds, why not pm me.

Thanks!

Id also love to meet. We are based nearer Alexandra Rec/Nurseries, but still able to meet!

Hello! I am also on FH Sydenham borders with a 3 and 1 year old and would be happy to meet up

Hi everyone

Think this thread kind of faded, but I met up with some fanastic East Dulwich mums to be today (I am pregnant with my second) and it made me think we should try a Forest Hill meet up as I'd also love to meet Forest Hill mums. I'm happy to organise one. PM or reply if interested, and I'll find us a date and venue...

Thanks. I really want to meet mums in forest hill too! Tried posting on Facebook se23 mums group but didn't attract any response. :(

Lovely to hear from so many to-be first and second time mums via pm and here. I am thinking a Saturday meet up as I work full time so can't yet meet in the week. We did one with some ED mums last Saturday and it worked really well and was lovely to meet so many mums.

Lets get the ball ralling... how about Saturday 7th Feb at 2:30. Depending how many come I can book a space at Canvas and Cream? I won't be bringing my little one, but if any mums are let me know.

Pm or respond here to let me know.

Hey not sure I can make that date as might have a cross country race that day. If I get back in time will drop in as would be great to meet you all.

Welcome to SE23! You should join the SE23 Mums page on facebook. It is very busy and friendly and there are plenty of local meetups.

[vez]

Sorry, just realised someone already mentioned it. I would keep trying!

[Tara86]

Hello,

I'm away that weekend. But if you arrange another date I would love to come.

Count me in. :)

Hi! We are new to the area as well (FH, near Horniman to be precise!). I have a 2.5 yr old boy. Would love to meet up other mums/kiddos around here... Esp those interested in random coffee play dates / wine drinking sessions some evenings (mums only for the wine ones, of course!). ;-)

Sadly, I can't make it to the 7th Feb meet-up, if that's still happening. Have been meaning to try canvas n cream but have a birthday party instead to attend. Hopefully we can have another one in the near future? It's hard getting to know people via playgroups now!

Thanks! Keep us posted. :-)

[Tara86]

If anyone is free during the week for a coffee/playdate meet up, I have more free days then! I also like the sound of wine drinking sessions! x

[GlamourBug]

Hi all

Looks like there's lots of interest in meeting, some on the 7th Feb and some later. Emilly and Mooncake can make it, so I'll book a space at Cookies on 7th, 2:30 for us, and if anyone else can join nearer the time let me know. After we meet I'll organise a second meet up too! X

[Avyus]

Tara,

You're looking at that one person! can meet up next week, if you're free.

Everyone else meeting on the 7th - have fun! :-) hope to join in at the next one.

[GlamourBug]

.... To confirm, 7th Feb at 2:30: 18 London Road, London SE23 3HF

I'd like to come too, if you have room at the table!

[GlamourBug]

Great- we can't book a table so I'll be there from 2:30... I'm not bringing my little one but I'll pm my personal details so you can contact me if needed.

For those who can't make it, the weather will be better post-Feb so will organise a Saturday playdate. Let me know if interested.
