Being Dad

SEL Mind

Who is Being Dad for?

Being Dad groups are free for men who:

  • Are expectant dads.
  • Are new dads with a child under two years old.
  • Are male caregivers such as a grandparent of young children up to the age of two.

Stay-at-home, working, adoptive and foster dads and step-fathers are all welcome.


Topics covered include:

  • Understanding your parenting identity/style.
  • Supporting your partner in your new parental role.
  • The changing dynamics with your partner, family and friends.


Plus proven techniques for managing stress, tiredness and worry.


The groups are led by men with their own personal experience of looking after themselves as dads or male caregivers.
