Parent Information Night
DPOM hosts a regular Parent Information Night for new members and
expectant parents. Hosted by parents of multiples and designed for both moms
and dads, we will discuss frequently asked questions and common concerns
about how to prepare, bringing your babies home, breastfeeding tips, helping
siblings adjust and how DPOM can help.
Parent Information Nights are held approximately every two months. Please
contact durhamparentsofmultiples@yahoo.ca for upcoming dates and to

Monthly MoM Nights
DPOM hosts two support meetings each month, in east and west Durham. These
are warm and friendly get-togethers for moms with multiples of any age.
Share your stories and ask questions of moms that have "been there". If you
do not have questions you probably have answers for other members. See your
newsletter, the DPOM online message board or your inbox for dates and locations. No RSVP
is required, just drop in!
Parents Night Out
We all need a night away from the kids once in a while! Join us for a
Parents Night Out and meet some other parents of twins, triplets or more.
Mothers Day Event
DPOM celebrates Mother’s Day with an event just for moms each year.
Annual Volunteer Appreciation Potluck & General Meeting
Each June we hold a BBQ potluck to thank our volunteers and vote in
the committee for the next year. Bring the whole family to this relaxed
afternoon event.
Annual Kids Holiday Party
Each holiday season DPOM hosts a magical day with children’s
entertainment, lunch, and a personalized gift for each child. Not to be
missed, this is the kid’s event of the year! It is also a great way for
parents to connect with other families of multiples.

Multiple Births Awareness Day: May 28th
Established in 2005 by Multiple Births Canada, this date has been
designated as the day for raising national awareness of the unique issues
faced by multiple-birth individuals and their families. National Multiple
Births Awareness Day provides a venue to unite and celebrate our personal
journeys as parents, grandparents, siblings, friends, spouses, daycare and
service providers, educators, and health professionals supporting Canada’s
multiple-birth community.
Fundraisers
DPOM is a non-profit organization run solely by volunteers. Fundraisers are
important to keeping our club running! Please watch your newsletter, the
message board and your inbox for information about fundraisers. We try to
keep these to two campaigns per year and focus on products and services that
make your busy life easier. Thank you for your support!
