About Us
Formerly Hyde Park Parents Exchange, Central Cincinnati Parents is a family support and socialization group for moms, dads, caregivers, and their young children. From parents nights out to weekly playgroups to special events and seasonal gatherings, Central Cincinnati Parents has something to offer for every caregiver and child.
​
Central Cincinnati Parents welcomes all families residing in the Cincinnati area and Northern Kentucky. We pride ourselves in offering events for a variety of familial structures and availability, hosting events during weekday working hours, weekends, and in the evenings.
A few words from our members...
"There are so many things I love about CCP! First off, it is a group for moms AND dads! My partner and I love being able to go to playdates and family events where both moms and dads are represented.
The CCP moms and dads are friendly, welcoming, and super nice! I also love the variety of events: mom wine nights and book club, dad hockey / mini golf / fowling nights, and family festivities like Breakfast with Santa and an Easter egg hunt with a petting zoo! The weekend playdates at indoor and outdoor playgrounds are casual and always fun!
Joining this community of kind, supportive, and caring parents has truly had such a positive impact on my life and the lives of my partner and 2-year-old. If you're a parent, I highly recommend joining this wonderful community."

After my husband and I relocated to Cincinnati and started a family I was in great need of opportunities to meet friends for both myself and my children. Groups on Facebook were far too large- they provided information about local events and were a great fielding space for questions but I did not feel that those groups were able to give me the chance to find an in-person community. After joining this group I quickly met people that I could relate to and was thrilled to see the same familiar faces over and over again at events. Our Central Cincinnati Friends have quickly become our core friend group (for parents and kids alike), we could not be more grateful.
"As a new parent, this group has been so helpful not only as a playgroup for my little one and a great resource for finding new places to take them, but also as a support group for me. It can be hard making time for yourself, and with all the events and clubs available it makes it much easier for my husband and I to schedule nights out for ourselves both individually and as a couple. We don't go to everything, but there's always opportunities every month so it's easy to find something that works."
