Understanding Fatherhood Online eClass
with Robin D
This interactive online class will guide you a soon-to-be dad through your fatherhood journey from pregnancy to birth and beyond, as well as all the things you can do to ease the transition of becoming a dad. This class focuses specifically on fatherhood, so it’s recommended that you and Mom also consider taking other classes together, such as childbirth education, breastfeeding, and newborn care and safety. This class will teach you why dads are important, what to expect from pregnancy and birth, that having a wide range of emotions about becoming a dad is common and normal, and all the ways your life will change (for the better!) when your baby arrives. Through video clips, featuring real dads, and many interactive activities, this eClass can help you feel more prepared for your parenting journey.
Multi-language access: English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Arabic, Japanese, and Chinese. For those with vision, hearing, motor impairments, and cognitive disorders closed captions, read-along audio and other custom learner settings available.
You can access this eClass from any computer or mobile device with an internet connection. Allow 3 hours to complete.
