The comprehensive ten-week program

Becoming a parent is an extraordinary and fulfilling experience, but it can also present new challenges and uncertainties. That's why we have developed a comprehensive ten-week program that offers practical advice, emotional support, and valuable coping and communication skills to equip you for the exciting and transformative role of fatherhood. Whether you are a first-time dad or have previous experience, our expert team is here to guide you every step of the way.

From Paternity to Birth and Beyond Program: Supporting Dads on their Parenting Journey

  • Our ten-week program is designed to provide you with practical advice that addresses the many issues that may arise during the journey of fatherhood. From changing diapers and soothing a crying baby to managing sleepless nights and creating a nurturing environment, we cover a wide range of topics essential to your role as a dad. Our expert team will share valuable insights, proven strategies, and practical tips to help you confidently handle the day-to-day challenges and responsibilities of parenting.

  • We understand that fatherhood can sometimes feel overwhelming and emotionally demanding. That's why our program places a strong emphasis on providing you with the emotional support you need to thrive. Through interactive sessions and discussions, we create a safe and supportive environment where you can openly express your thoughts and feelings. Our team will guide you in developing effective coping mechanisms, stress management techniques, and resilience-building strategies, empowering you to maintain a healthy emotional well-being as you navigate the joys and complexities of parenthood.

  • Effective communication is key to building strong and nurturing relationships with your child and your partner. Our program is designed to enhance your communication skills, enabling you to establish a loving and open dialogue within your family. We explore various communication techniques and provide practical tools to help you express your thoughts, actively listen to your child, and foster healthy connections. By mastering effective communication, you will create a harmonious and supportive environment that nurtures your child's growth and strengthens the bond between you and your partner.

  • Our From Paternity to Birth and Beyond program offers a dynamic and participative learning environment. You have the flexibility to choose between workshop-style sessions, where you can engage with other fathers and share experiences, or one-to-one sessions for a more personalized approach. Our expert facilitators are highly experienced and skilled in delivering engaging and informative content that caters to the unique needs and preferences of each participant. Whether you thrive in group settings or prefer individual attention, we ensure that you receive the support and guidance that suits your learning style.

Your Confidentiality and Safety

We understand the importance of creating a secure and non-judgmental environment where dads can freely express themselves. Any information shared during our meetings or interactions is treated with the utmost respect and kept strictly confidential. This ensures that dads feel comfortable and empowered to share their thoughts, feelings, and experiences without fear of judgment or consequences.

    I've attended just two sessions with FLTD after hearing about Dave's work on Facebook. I already | have a grasp of the sense of community within the group and how Dave has fostered a safe space for everyone. All topics are encouraged. There is a wide group of Dads taking part - Dads to be, new Dads, and more experienced Dads, so there is a foundation of knowledge in each discussion…

    There is no question too personal, and everyone gets a chance to be heard. You could have a tough time with your newborn, questioning if you are doing things the right way or not, once you get on the zoom call, you quickly realize all Dads go through similar experiences and this gives you confidence. Plus, there is a good mix of people on the call to have some banter also, which is great.

    Thank you From Lads to Dads, for helping us Dads grow and feel supported in becoming a parent; we all need help along the way, brilliant initiative.

    | found it very informative and beneficial to be able to take part and ask questions to other Dads about any tips they might have in being a first-time Father. Last night’s session was about getting small ones to sleep, and any advice is always great to take on board, not only for the small people but also for their parents to function and be the best parent possible.

    Having a place for men to talk openly and honestly about the fear and worry of becoming a parent is unique. Thanks to everyone at FLTD. It is a brilliant initiative and badly needed in all communities; we often get forgotten and left behind as Dads.
