In Greenbelt's first Directory of Organizations, published in October, 1938, several mothers' clubs are listed. The Pre-School Mothers' Club was established for the mothers of pre-school aged children to come together and discuss problems with raising children that age. They also had regular discussion topics based on articles taken from Parents Magazine. Also listed was the School Age Mothers' Club which held discussions on parent education and child welfare (Directory of Organizations).
In January, 1944, the War Manpower Commission formed the Working Mothers Club. The club was established because of the sharp increase in working mothers as a result of World War Two. The organization provided a much needed service to the Greenbelt community by listing persons who were willing to take care of children of working mothers. The club also established an exchange for baby clothes, high chairs, carriages, and other baby care items to make the lives of the working mothers less complicated and much easier (Greenbelt Cooperator).
