- Why do I feel like this?
- What happened to my partner?
- How do I makes sense of this chaos?
- What the actual ****!!??
This is a free one-hour webinar series every Tuesday evening to help you answer (most) of these questions, with separate break-out chat rooms for expectant dads and those have little ones.
Being Dad is a well-being project with SEL Mind for expectant or new dads, or men with parenting responsibilities, to help them cope with the challenges of fatherhood.
16th September Webinar 1: How's it going, Dad? When everything is changing, how do we process it all? An honest account of how we're all coping and, for dads-to-be, what to expect.
23rd September Webinar 2: Time on your side? What sort of dad do you want to be? And how are you going to find the time to be it? We help you answer the crucial questions.
30th September Webinar 3: Let's talk about stress: It's probably fair to say that you and your partner have a lot going on, and you need a new way of living and being together. We're here for the tricky conversations.
7th October Webinar 4: When **** gets real : No matter what your situation, there will be times when you feel like everything is getting on top of you. Stress and anxiety when you’ve had a baby can be completely normal.
Since the service started in 2019, Being Dad has been supporting fathers with children 0-24 months in South East London.
Raising a child is a momentous task and your life is going to change in ways you never imagined. It can be a daunting prospect, bringing new responsibilities and a sense of the unknown.
We are here to help. Participants have the option to attend as many of the four webinars and weekly chats as they want.
