What is Northern Virginia Parents of Multiples (NVPOM)?

Updated

Northern Virginia Parents of Multiples (NVPOM) is a non-profit, volunteer-run organization for families of twins, triplets, or higher-order multiples in Northern Virginia. It provides education, community support, and social activities for its members, and its website serves as the hub for membership sign-up, event listings, and its recurring kids consignment sale.

Who can join

Membership is open to:

  • Expectant parents
  • Parents of twins, triplets, and higher-order multiples
  • Grandparents of multiples
  • Legal guardians of multiples

If you fall into one of these groups and are looking for a local network that understands the logistics of raising multiples, NVPOM is structured around exactly that audience.

What the organization offers

NVPOM describes itself as an active, vibrant, volunteer-based group. Its programming falls into three broad areas:

Area What it covers
Education Information and resources relevant to families of multiples
Community support Connection with other parents in similar situations
Social activities Events that bring member families together

Because the group is volunteer-run, the calendar and event mix reflect what members organize and participate in. The site lists a calendar plus a separate social events section, so it's worth checking both if you want to know what's coming up.

What's on the website

The main sections of nvpom.com map directly to how the organization functions:

  • About Us and Executive Board — who runs the group and what it stands for
  • Get Involved — ways to participate beyond basic membership
  • Calendar and Social Events — upcoming activities
  • Membership / Join Us — how to register
  • Kids Consignment Sale — details on the group's resale event
  • Login — a member area behind registration

Note that some parts of the site, including the member login, require an account. The public pages are informational; joining is a separate step.

The Kids Consignment Sale

One of NVPOM's most visible public activities is its kids consignment sale, which is open beyond the membership base. The site lists the Fall 2026 sale as:

  • Date: October 17, 2026
  • Time: 9:00 am – 1:30 pm
  • Location: Shrevewood Elementary School, Falls Church

For families of multiples, consignment sales like this are a practical way to buy and sell children's gear in bulk. If you're planning to attend or sell, check the sale page closer to the date, since times and locations can be updated.

Contact and location

NVPOM lists a mailing address of 302 Grove Ave, Falls Church, VA 22046. The site's clock and server information indicate the organization operates on America/New York time, consistent with its Northern Virginia focus.

How to get started

  1. Go to nvpom.com and read the About Us page to confirm the group fits your situation.
  2. Check the Calendar and Social Events pages to see what's currently scheduled.
  3. Use Membership / Join Us to register if you want member access, including the login area.
  4. If you're interested in the consignment sale, visit that section for current seller and shopper details.

The main thing to verify before joining is whether your family situation matches the membership criteria above — the organization is specifically built for multiples families, not parents of singletons.
