How to find mum friends in Chelsea

Chelsea can feel closed if you have just arrived, partly because so much of local life happens indoors or through schools. The parks are the way in. Ranelagh Gardens and the Embankment path are where parents with children under five actually overlap, and the absence of a tube means people walk, which helps.

Where parents in Chelsea actually meet

• Ranelagh Gardens and the Royal Hospital grounds.
• The Chelsea Embankment river path, flat the whole way and a natural walking route.
• Chelsea Physic Garden when the wind comes off the river.

None of this needs an introduction or a committee. Pick one, go at roughly the same time twice, and you will start recognising people — which is most of the battle.

How ParentGO helps

• Arrange a meet-up. Post a time and a place and see who is free.
• Message a parent directly. A conversation at a class does not have to end when the class does.
• Ask a local question. Which class is worth the money, where to go in Chelsea when it has rained for three days.

It is free to join, you choose how much you share, and dads, grandparents and carers use it too.
