Being a dad is awesome.

It can also be confusing, lonely, and overwhelming.

At Fathercraft, we’ve talked to hundreds of guys who are dads to be, or have a little one or two. The same themes keep coming up:

These are guys who want to be awesome dads

They want to be there for their new baby, and for their partner

They also don’t want to lose themself — these are guys with ambitious goals

But they all know that a new baby is going to be a massive change.

And, these guys aren't afraid to admit the change that's coming is stressful.

The good news: you don’t have to figure it all out alone.

All the guys we’ve talked to were the inspiration for us starting to think about community. About building a place where guys who want to be kick-ass dads (and have fun doing it) can find a core group of guys who are there with them as they enter Fatherhood or tackle its next challenge.

FAQs

How will you ensure the community is a safe, constructive place?

First, The Shop by Fathercraft will be a private community. Every single member will be reviewed by the Fathercraft team.

Second, it won’t be free. If you are willing to invest the cost of a couple pour-over coffees per month, it means you’re going to take this more seriously.

Third, the community will be actively moderated by the Fathercraft team. We will not hesitate to remove members who don’t follow our community guidelines.

Are moms allowed?

No. We’ve thought a lot about this one. We believe moms are amazing. We also believe that there are lots of amazing communities out there for moms. We believe that a community just for dads will allow for deeper, more candid conversations.

We’ll also note that Fathercraft writ-large welcomes moms, dads, aunts, uncles, grandparents, etc. 

What age-range of kids do I need to have to be part of the community

Short answer? Dads of all aged kids are welcome.

Slightly longer? Initially, The Shop will be geared towards new(ish) dads, expecting dads, and dads of young kids (think 10 and under). As we grow, we’ll get better at segmenting conversations, creating and curating content for dads of older kids too—in fact the clock is ticking on co-founder Paul’s critical need of figuring out how to be the dad of teenage girls.

Anything else I should know?

Our community won’t constitute medical advice, and it’s important to remember you are responsible for the health and well-being of your children.

I have another question.

We have an answer. Probably. [email protected]
