M.O.P.S. - Mothers of Preschoolers, 931 Love Point Road, Stevensville, MD 21666 - 410-304-2764

Kent Island MOPS, Mothers of Preschoolers, is for mothers with children from birth thru kindergarten. We meet at Safe Harbor Presbyterian Church on the second Thursday of each month September - May. Our Thursday meetings are from 6:30-9pm and childcare is available at every meeting. In addition, we schedule one kids play day and one mom's night out each month. While many organizations focus on making a better world for our children, at MOPS, we focus on making better children for our world. How? By meeting the needs of their mothers because when we impact a mom, we impact a child and ultimately, impact the world. Better moms make a better world.
