New Dads

The Fatherhood Foundation is working on a pilot program with Wollongong Hospital for dads-to-be called 'Daring Dads' (link).

Once perfected Daring Dads can be rolled out across Australia. Daring Dads would also like to provide a playgroup experience/community for dads with babies and young children.

For more information on Daring Dads courses or playgroups please email the Fatherhood Foundation at info@fatherhood.org.au.
