At-Home Moms

Hi! My name is Susan and my family and I will be moving to Newport News in a month from Memphis (I'm originally from Canada). My husband and I are the parents of two very cute little girls, ages 3 and 1.

Have you seen the news lately?  There's a new tick in town.  It's the Gulf Coast tick and it's marched right into our area. 

Hello there! My name is Marilyn, I am 24 with two kids, Jimi (boy) who is 3 and Gioia (girl) 4 months. My husband is in the Navy and we have recently relocated from WA to Virginia Beach area. This is my first move with kids and I'm not sure where to start on making new friends for them and myself. I am not shy, but not super outgoing either, just very down to earth.

AuPairCare, the ultimate cultural exchange and childcare program, will be at the Hampton International Childrens Festival.  Look for our table and win some prizes while learning about how an au pair can help you.

Hello, we have been here for almost a year. I have a 3yr old girl and 1yr old boy, both with special needs. My hubby and I have been married for a year, so sea duty is new to me. I am a sahm looking to find some friends just like me. I have met some ship wives and they were less than "friend" material! I am so glad I found this website :) Amanda

So not only am I new to the site here, but I am new to Hampton Roads. I am trying desperately to find a job and some connections, but my biggest issue is the major changes my 2 year-old (25 months) daugther is under-going. We've just moved here from Pittsburgh, PA for my husband's career. I still do not work, which is helpful considering all she knows is up north.

Any ideas on where to take a walk with the stroller and our dog? I have done the boardwalk, Mt. Trashmore, and First Landing State Park but I am bored with those places... and our neighborhood... Help!
