Improving and Integrating Urban Indigenous Health Services
Deadly Dads
Empowering Indigenous men to be Strong and Deadlydads
Deadly Dads is a service for men whose partner is birthing their bub through the Birthing in Our Community service.
Our dad support worker provides one-to-one support on areas that include:
transitioning into fatherhood
understanding your family dynamics
father/child relationships
parenting skills
emotional health and wellbeing.
Deadly Dads-to-be will learn their support promotes positive outcomes, better psychological and emotional support throughout their partner’s journey to the birth of bub.
Our dad support worker walks alongside our dads to support them on their journey to fatherhood.
We offer Labour, Birth and Beyond antenatal workshops for expectant first-time dads, as well as a social catch-up for all BiOC dads.
Expect an afternoon or evening with our dad support worker, fellow deadly dads on a similar journey to you, information and support, plus a light feed.
Upcoming workshops
Our next antenatal workshops are advertised on the BiOC Facebook page. They will be run four times per year. If you’re interested in attending, contact on the right-hand side.
BiOC North runs monthly catchups for dads! It’s an opportunity for dads to connect in the Moreton Bay region. See our Facebook page for the dates, times and locations. Contact 1800 MY BiOC for details about the upcoming catchup.
