Children’s Playgroup

Welcome to the LNDSMC Playgroup! Whether you are a long-time resident of our community or a newcomer to the area, we are excited for you join the LNDSMC Playgroup.

The Ladies of Notre Dame and Saint Mary’s College (LNDSMC) sponsors our Playgroup for LNDSMC members with young children. The Playgroup meets several times a month at various locations either on campus or around town. We invite mothers to join us with their children as we gather for these events around the community. (Expectant mothers and grandmothers are welcome too!)

If you are not yet a LND/SMC member, but are a faculty, staff, faculty/staff spouse or alumna of Notre Dame or Saint Mary’s, please come join us at one of our Robinson Community Learning Center playdates to find out more about our group and see if you would be interested in joining!

Playgroup membership is included with your LNDSMC membership–$25 annual dues for all the LNDSMC community has to offer!  Click link in sidebar to apply for membership.

These playgroups are a great way to explore around town and get out of the house! You never know what we’ll be doing. Check our Facebook group often for up-to-date info on events! Our coordinators Heidi and Meghan are looking forward to a fun-filled year!
