This is the average new Dad.
His world has just been turned up-side-down. It goes without saying that he loves his partner and his new child, but he's also feeling overwhelmed...
He's trying to figure out his role.
He wonders if his parenting skills are good enough.
He’s so tired he's struggling to perform at work.
He finds there's no time to catch up with friends anymore.
He's feeling like a failure... at everything.
But desperately trying to be strong for everyone else.
The early stages of fatherhood are a time of acute stress and loneliness for many dads.

We promote positive parenting for fathers and father figures and give new Dads the support and connection they need. Our early intervention approach provides new Fathers with positive social relationships and easier pathways to health services if they need them.
We focus on the early years, and the impact lasts a lifetime.
