Leesburg has two chapters of the international organization MOMS (Moms Offering Moms Support). It is geared towards supporting stay at home moms by organizing events and activities, and the local clubs are run by volunteers.
I have been a member for almost two years, and found:
- participation in the online chat group alone is worth the annual membership fee.
- being a member of a MOMS club playgroup was very helpful during my first year here as I adjusted to stay at home motherhood, juggling two kids, and new surroundings.
As with any women’s group whether or not it is the right fit for you may depend on personalities, but it is a great resource of full of moms who do want to help each other.

I am the Child Care Supervisor at the Lucketts Community Center just 5 miles North of Leesburg. We offer a service that some of your moms may be interested in. We offer a drop-in service for children that are potty trained and are between the ages of three and six. The cost is $7 per hour with an annual $45 registration fee. This is great for going to lunch with friends holiday shopping or even getting that haircut. For more information please (703)737-8841.
The community center also offers preschool for three and four year old children.
Have a great day!
