The Women of MASO

Moms Around Stone Oak, a Facebook community built on connection and support

What started as one mom’s desire to create a kinder, more supportive space has grown into one of the most trusted communities for mothers in Stone Oak.

Founded by Kimberly Kayatta, MASO (Moms Around Stone Oak) began over a decade ago with a simple goal: create a space where moms could ask questions, share experiences, and support one another without judgment.

Today, Kimberly leads MASO alongside a close-knit group of women she brought in for their shared values. Together, they’ve built something that feels less like a Facebook group and more like a village.

It’s a space built by moms who understand exactly what other moms need.
