This is a group for parents in Orlando (and surrounding areas) who practice attachment parenting and are also interested in natural living. If you are from out of state and planning to move here, please apply when you take residence here :)

People who are new to natural living are welcome as this list is a support group made up of moms who care and want to help others who are just getting started. Attachment parenting is, however, the common denominator in this group. If you'd like to join, please include a little bit about yourself in the "comments" section of the subscription form. We offer support via our message board and encourage members to connect with each other offline through monthly park playdates, mom's night outs and local events.

ACTIVE PARTICIPATION online is encouraged. "Lurking" or just reading messages is okay as long as you are checking in at least once a month on the board.

AD Days are Fridays ONLY. If you would like to advertise your business or personal items you have for sale, please put the label "AD" in the subject line. Signatures advertising your business are okay so long as they do not contain graphics or excessive text.

Playdates, Mom's Night Outs, and other Group events can be found on the CALENDAR.
