Swansea Town Hall is now the host to a new Post-Natal moms group called Mommy Connections. A 6 week session costs only $60. Great for moms with new babies looking to meet other moms in the community.

Ann Mussett is a great chiropractor!
Another bonus: the health centre is around the corner from Petite Thuet. A croissant before or after the appointment makes everyone happier.

I had a mom's event here once during off-peak hours. They were very accommodating. We took over a large part of the upper level. They serve beer too! :)

Great cafe. I hosted a mom's event here once during off-peak hours and they were very nice about it. If you want to organize a group I would call ahead since it is quite small place. There is parking on all the surrounding streets if needed. The food is excellent homemade fare. The owners work very hard to make everything from scratch (other than the bread). Delicious! show more

I've tried some of their cakes and they have been pretty good. The rice pudding was nice. I don't know much about the other food they serve. It is a comfortable place for big groups. It is really easy to get to and to meet at. Great for mom's groups. show more
