Our Expectant Parent Support Co-ordinator sets up and conducts Expectant Parents Meetings for parents in the Guelph-Wellington area who are expecting multiples. There is no cost to attend and you do not have to be a member of MBG-W. The meetings generally consist of presentations by the Co-ordinator  and provides information about pre- and post- partum support. The meetings are an opportunity for families expecting multiples to receive support, ask questions, learn about our organization, and obtain information about multiple pregnancy and life with multiples. Please contact us to find out when the next Expectant Parents Meeting will be held or for more information.

Monthly Meetings & Special Events
We have regular monthly meetings once a month and several special family events (i.e. kids parties, picnics, etc) to help our members connect with each other and build relationships that can last a lifetime. For more information about our meetings and events, please check the club calendar.

Breastfeeding Support
Several members of our club are volunteers with WE (Women Everywhere) Breastfeed, a community program which offers new mothers breastfeeding support. You can learn more about this program and fill out a self referral form to be matched with a volunteer at http://www.guelphchc.ca/page.cfm?id=796.

Parent Support Volunteer Program
MBG-W is pleased to offer a Parent Support Program where we recruit, train and match volunteers from the University of Guelph and greater community with families in our club. We have terrific volunteers, many of whom are from the Child and Family Studies Program. Volunteers are available to assist parents with newborns, give older siblings some time and attention, provide parents with a much needed break, and offer the infants touch, stimulation and provide general infant care.

Newsletter
We offer our members four informative newsletters per year. These newsletters are full of information about community programs, tips and advice for parent support, upcoming events in the club, local and national discount programs, information about the latest news from Multiple Births Canada, information about different developmental stages and much more.
