Welcome!

The Northern Virginia Parents of Multiples (NVPOM) is an organization for families of twins, triplets, or higher-order multiples. We are an active, vibrant, volunteer-based group that provides both support and social activities for its members. We are a member of the National Organization of Mothers of Twins Clubs (NOMOTC). Read more about our club here.

 

 

Who Are We?


NVPOM’s purpose is to help each other feel prepared and more confident in raising multiple-birth children. We strive to broaden our members’ understanding of various aspects of child development and rearing, especially as they relate to multiples. Join us for an exchange of information between parents, educators, doctors, and other experts, as well as an opportunity to meet other parents who have experienced similar joys and challenges in raising twins, triplets, and more.

 

 

Monthly Meetings and Other Activities

 

General meetings are held on the first Thursday of the month at 7:30 pm (except July, August, and December). Topics cover many important aspects of parenting, and may include sleep, stress management, potty training, child safety, saving for college, and more.
