Empowering Indigenous men to be Strong and Deadly dads
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.
What to expect at a Deadly Dads workshop?
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.
