One week until our first meetup of September! 😍☕️

Join us for a coffee hang at one of our favorite local spots, Booklegger Used Books in Huntsville! We'll be hanging out drinking coffee, browsing books and getting to know each other.

A few ways we make it easy to show up:
1. The Bestie System - let us pair you with a friend ahead of time! You don't have to walk in alone.
2. Kid-friendly location: If kids are included in our meetup, then rest assured we've chosen a kid-friendly spot.
3. Conversation starter: Flip to the last slide to see our topic of the week! We'll start off discussing our answers so everyone has a chance to get to know each other.

Any other ways we can make it easier for you to join us? We're all ears. Comment here or send us a DM! You will always belong here and we can't wait to welcome you to our community. ❤️

Well… the weather won this one. 🌧️

We’ve made the difficult decision to postpone our Anniversary Picnic. With rain in the forecast all week, we’d rather wait than celebrate in the mud.

We hope to reschedule later this year and can’t wait to celebrate with you then. ❤️ Thank you for understanding!

For July Book Club, we’re switching things up ☀️

Instead of everyone reading the same book, this month’s theme is SUMMER.

Choose any book that feels like summer to you — beachy, romantic, adventurous, nostalgic, thrilling, lighthearted, or simply something you’ve been wanting to read.

Then come tell us what you chose, why you picked it, and whether you’d recommend it.

No assigned book. No pressure to finish. Just pick a summer read and join us. ❤️

We’re so excited to announce a pop-up event coming next week: our first Once Upon a Playdate meetup en Español! ❤️

Join us at Delano Park for a relaxed morning of play and connection for Spanish-speaking moms, bilingual families, and anyone who is learning or would enjoy practicing Spanish while the kids play.

This meetup will be co-hosted by OUP members Alondra Hernandez and Andrea Gotera, two local Spanish-speaking moms who are helping us create a warm and welcoming space for everyone.

You do not need to speak Spanish fluently to attend, and new faces are always welcome. Find all the details on the event page, and please share with any local moms or families who may be interested!



¡Estamos muy emocionadas de anunciar un evento especial para la próxima semana: nuestro primer encuentro de Once Upon a Playdate en Español! ❤️

Acompáñanos en Delano Park para una mañana relajada de juegos y conexión para mamás que hablan español, familias bilingües y cualquier persona que esté aprendiendo o quiera practicar español mientras los niños juegan.

Este encuentro será organizado junto con Alondra Hernandez y Andrea Gotera, dos integrantes de OUP y mamás locales que hablan español, quienes nos están ayudando a crear un espacio cálido y acogedor para todas.

No es necesario hablar español con fluidez para asistir, y las nuevas participantes siempre son bienvenidas. Encontrarán todos los detalles en la página del evento. ¡Compártanlo con cualquier mamá o familia local que pueda estar interesada!

As Mental Health Awareness Month comes to a close, here’s your reminder:

You deserve community.

You deserve to feel seen, included, and cared for.
You deserve people who make life feel a little lighter.
You deserve spaces where you can show up exactly as you are.

Whether you find that here or somewhere else — please don’t give up on finding it.

You are needed.
You matter.
You belong.
