How to find mum friends in Stratford

Stratford's population turns over quickly and a lot of families are new to the area at any given time, which means you are rarely the only one looking. The Olympic Park playgrounds are the meeting point — particularly the Tumbling Bay area, which is built for exactly this age group.

Where parents in Stratford actually meet

  • The Tumbling Bay playground in Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, built for exactly this age group.
  • The fountains in the park, which run through the summer.
  • West Ham Park, older and quieter than the Olympic Park.

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 Stratford 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.
