Who We Are...
We are a supportive bunch of volunteer parents from all walks of life, with one thing in common; our families were blessed with two, three or more babies at a time!
Being a parent of multiples offers unique challenges and unique joys. Others who have been through it, or are going through it, are an endless source of comfort, humour, and stories where you can think "at least that hasn't happened to us- yet!"
If you've just seen two or more little blobs on an ultrasound, you might be feeling a bit scared. We've been there and survived - we can help!
We have members throughout Counties Manukau including Franklin, Papatoetoe, Papakura, Pukekohe, and in Mangere, East Auckland, and Huntly.
Most of our events are co-ordinated through our closed Facebook group (Multiples Counties Manukau) .
Membership...
Becoming a member of MCM will provide you with many benefits, and access to a great support network. Our membership fee is only $35 per year, and you receive access to hire equipment, access to the MCM Facebook group (a fantastic source of support and information), our newsletter emailed to you regularly, access to club organised events, and if you join before your multiples are born you'll receive a free box of Huggies Newborn size nappies after your multiples arrive!
