About Us

Why We Exist

Becoming a dad flips your whole world upside down. One minute you’re living life on autopilot  the next, you’re holding a tiny human who depends on you for everything. It’s beautiful. It’s intense. It’s messy. And truthfully, most of us were never really prepared for what it takes. That’s why DadMode was born: Not as a perfect answer, but as a starting point. A support system. A space built for dads, by dads  because you deserve one too.

Who this space is for?

DadMode is for all dads no matter what your path looks like:

  • First-time dads

  • Expecting dads

  • Solo dads

  • Co-parenting dads

  • Working dads

  • Tired dads (yes, you especially)

DadMode is about presence, not perfection.
It’s about figuring it out together, one day at a time.
It’s about you — the dad who’s trying, learning, showing up.

This is your space.
Your support system.
Your reminder that you’re not alone.

What you will find on Dadmode

  • The Expecting Dad Toolkit – Checklists, weekly updates, and preparation tips

  • Newborn Survival Guides – Sleep, feeding, diapering, and staying sane

  • Mental Health Resources – Journaling, peer stories, emotional check-ins

  • Daily Dad Hacks – Real tips from real dads, tested in real life

  • Community & Connection – Anonymous Q&A, stories, and podcast features

Whether you’re looking for advice, reassurance, or just someone who gets it, you’ll find it here.

We see you. We are you.

This isn’t a place for picture-perfect parenting posts or filtered advice that makes you feel “less than.” It’s a space for honest conversations, tools that actually help, and encouragement without judgment.

Where We’re Headed: We’re growing a tribe of dads who lift each other up not by pretending we have it all together, but by showing up messy, honest, and real.

Our mobile app is launching soon to bring this support straight to your pocket. And we’re always adding new stories, tools, and voices to the mix.

Feedback & Reviews

Real words from real dads. Here’s what our communityis saying about DadMode.

I felt completely overwhelmed during my partner’s pregnancy. Every site I visited seemed geared toward mums. Then I found DadMode. It didn’t throw clichés at me  it spoke my language. Now I check in weekly, and it’s helped me feel ready, not perfect, just ready

Expecting Dad

There were nights I felt like I was failing. Then I read a story on here from another dad who said the exact same thing I was feeling. It hit hard. Sometimes all you need is to know you’re not crazy you’re just a dad doing his best.

New Dad

I’m a co-parent and work full-time. Most resources feel like they expect me to be superhuman or invisible. DadMode is different — it’s honest, helpful, and real. I’ve even started journaling again because of one of their mental health prompts

The Story Behind DadMode

It started with a question: “Why isn’t there a space where dads can just be real?”

That simple frustration became a mission to create the kind of space we wished existed when we first became dads. DadMode was founded by dads who didn’t have all the answers but knew they weren’t alone in the questions. Since then, it’s grown into a platform visited by thousands of fathers who just want to be seen, supported, and understood without pressure or judgment.

We envision a world where every dad feels confident, capable, and proud of the role he plays  not just as a provider or protector, but as a present, growing, emotionally-aware parent.

We are here to help you.
