The way you hold your baby.
The way you play.
The way you comfort them.

It all matters.

Research continues to show that involved fathers help children build confidence, language skills, emotional security, and healthy development from the very beginning.

While many parenting classes are designed primarily with moms in mind, Dad Skills Camp is all about dads.

You'll be surrounded by other expectant and new fathers who are asking the same questions, building the same skills, and preparing for the same incredible journey. It's a chance to learn together, gain confidence, and discover just how important your role is from day one.

Whether you live in Delaware County or a neighboring community, you're invited to join us on August 22 for this free, hands-on experience.
