Expecting & new dads groups in Orange County & Long Beach

Parent Haven's expecting and new dad groups in Orange County & Long Beach are a way for local dads to make friends, get advice, and handle early parenthood together. A group is made up of expecting dads and dads with young babies who are at similar stages at the same time. There are local meetups for dads and active chat conversations, and the other fathers nearby know what you're dealing with because they are dealing with it too. Our Orange County & Long Beach dad groups fit dads preparing for a first baby and dads adjusting to life as a new parent. The conversations cover supporting your partner during pregnancy, newborn care, baby sleep, feeding, parenting roles, balancing work and family life, and the other things that come with becoming a dad. With Parent Haven you can meet nearby fathers, ask questions without judgment, and build real local friendships with other dads.
