We all know how important it is for parents to stay connected online (now more than ever!). Working from home, social distancing and homeschooling can be isolating and overwhelming, so we’ve found a bunch of Facebook groups you can join to reach out and connect with other parents in the Dallas community. Read on to find that support, shared knowledge and camaraderie are just a few clicks away in a local online group for parents in the DFW.
Dallas Moms
This massive group of almost 10,000 member moms was created in December 2014. It is a community made up of moms who work outside the home as well as some who have a side gig, work from home, are budding entrepreneurs, do volunteer work, etc. They share talents, do good deeds, share great ideas, help each other with mom questions, inspire each other, help each other find humor and be supportive overall.

Whether you are a new mom or you are about to have an empty nest, this group wants you to have a place where you can socialize, have fun, meet other moms, have meet ups with moms and their kids, support each other, get advice, give advice, share information and inspire each other.
