3 Sept. Training sessions offered so you can choose your best date and time!
We are offering 3 training sessions so that you can choose the one that suits you best! All Admin Reps (Finance, Communications, Fundraising, and Childcare - anyone guaranteed a spot in the organization at registration time), plus Leaders, are asked to attend.
It’s a great way to kick off your new role, or, if you’re returning, it’s a great way to find out what’s new this year and what the expectations for your role will be. Three training sessions will be held:
- Wed. Sept. 8 (evening, at Swansea Town Hall in the west)

About MumNet
The Metro Mothers Network, also known as MumNet, is an organization that is dedicated to helping mothers within the Greater Toronto communities. Whether you’re a stay-at-home mum, on maternity leave or working full or part-time, MumNet provides a network of support and friendship through weekly meetings that include exercise, discussion and on-site childcare.
MumNet offers four types of groups: MumNet, MumVet and NetFit, and new for this fall, MumExec for working mums, that are run from local churches and community centres across Toronto. We also offer great opportunity for personal development and leadership through our volunteer positions within each group and throughout the network. Fundraising is also a key part of the MumNet experience; to keep member fees affordable members participate in three fundraising initiatives each year.
MumNet is a registered not-for-profit charitable organization, founded and run by volunteer women. MumNet is an independent organization that provides support and friendship to all women who are mothers and living in the Toronto area.
