Expecting & new dads groups in San Diego

Parent Haven's San Diego expecting and new dad groups give local dads somewhere to build friendships, pick up advice, and work through early parenthood together. Each group is built from expecting dads and dads with young babies at similar stages. Come to local meetups for dads, jump into the chat conversations, and get to know other fathers close by who understand what you're working through. Getting set for your first baby or settling into life as a new parent, our San Diego dad groups give dads somewhere to get into supporting your partner during pregnancy, newborn care, baby sleep, feeding, parenting roles, balancing work and family life, and the rest of what comes with becoming a dad. Parent Haven keeps it easy to meet fathers close by, ask without judgment, and build real local friendships with other dads.
