Did you recently find out your partner is pregnant? If so, you likely have a million thoughts and questions running through your mind right now. No matter what you’re thinking or feeling, it’s understandable, but it’s important to know that you’re not alone. At Upstate Pregnancy Center, we’re here for you with our free fatherhood mentorship program.
What Is Dad-to-Dad?
Dad-to-Dad is our fatherhood mentorship program that is designed to give you the essential skills, guidance, and friendship to feel prepared and supported for fatherhood. Whether you’re worried about becoming a dad because you’ve never had a good example in your own life or you want to learn essential parenting skills, this program is for you!
How Does the Dad-to-Dad Program Work?
When you enroll in the free Dad-to-Dad program, you will be paired with a fatherhood mentor. You will then meet with your dad-to-dad mentor once a week, either at Upstate Pregnancy Center or off-campus. Many of our dad-to-dad participants and their mentors develop a friendship that exists beyond the program.
Your fatherhood mentor understands what you’re going through and will be there to help with the following:
- Essential fatherhood skills
- Parenting basics
- How to support your partner
- How to prepare for a baby
- Healthy relationship habits
- and more!
The goal of the dad-to-dad program is to give you a safe space to connect with a caring father who understands. The benefits of having an active mentor with firsthand experience can help equip you with the tools you need to guide you through the challenges of fatherhood and parenting. You’ll learn and have the chance to ask questions and find answers.
