Confident Fatherhood Starts Here

Welcome to The Dad School

parenting classes for dads

At The Dad School, we’re redefining what it means to be a father in today’s world. As part of a new generation of dads, we believe it’s time to show up, do the work, and truly enjoy the process of fatherhood. But here’s the reality: We expect a lot from ourselves—and a lot is expected of us. Join us as we create a new community and parenting classes for dads, and so much more!

Yet, when it comes to the support we need as dads, it’s shockingly lacking.

We think that needs changing. That’s why The Dad School exists—to provide the guidance, community, and tools every dad deserves through a series of online parenting classes designed just for dads.

Whether you’re a first-time dad, a newly single dad, or raising a teenager, our small-group online courses (capped at six dads per class) led by experts offer practical strategies, real support, and a space to connect with others navigating the same challenges.

Our Core Beliefs

The Dad School is built on four core beliefs that drive everything we do:

One: Fathers Matter

Research confirms it: The role of “father” is crucial to the well-being of children, families, and communities. It may not always feel like dads matter, but how men approach and engage with their children has lasting consequences on their development. We’re here to empower dads to take on this role with confidence, purpose, and skill.

Two: Becoming a Father is a Knowable Process

Fatherhood doesn’t have to be a guessing game—but it’s definitely something that we don’t necessarily come hardwired to excel at. With the right knowledge and preparation, you can step into every chapter of life ready to thrive.

Three: Every Stage Requires New Tools & Skills

Becoming a dad is a huge life shift requiring that you adapt to changing circumstances and learn new ways of thinking, acting, and relating. We teach you the practical tools and mindset shifts that will set you up for success.

Four: Anyone Can Learn These Tools and Skills

You don’t need to be a genius, you don’t need prior experience with kids, and you don’t need some fancy degree to be a rockstar dad. When pressed, most fathers will admit that they had no clue what was going on at first. It doesn’t have to stay that way. The opportunity to be a good dad is available to all of us.

FROM THE MOMMY CENTER APRIL-JUNE 2025

“The pacing of the class was really good! Perfect mixture of content and discussion. I was able to take from both and used things I learned in class during the week”

FROM THE MOMMY CENTER APRIL-JUNE 2025

"To have a setting where I am with other dads that want to be great and learn ways to do that, is so encouraging and helpful! And to be able to share my own and hear other's successes and hardships is validating and motivating. Great group, great content, great course!"
