Meet other local Stay At Home Dads, Part-time at home dads, work from home dads, freelance dads, and involved fathers in and around New York City (NYC) to arrange playdates with our kids and to interact with other guys in the same situation.
My primary goal is to form small get togethers with involved fathers during the week while the rest of the world is working, so we can take advantage of what the city has to offer without the crowds & within a tight budget. This still enables us to have ample time in the evenings and weekends for our family bonding.
Organized meet up events are once a week at a local park, museum, playgym, children's venue, zoo, restaurant, or if lucky -someone's playroom/lounge in their building.
There are not enough resources, support groups, or services for dads in NYC. This group is the pioneer in achieving more for dads in NYC!

This meet up event was suggested & will be planned by Josh K. Josh continues to be an active member as well as stepping up with some positive ideas. He has been to the Train Show before at the Botanical Gardens & it makes for a good winter destination as it is indoors. The event at the Lionel Train Store seemed to draw interest for guys in the group so this should be a popular one as well. Read more

What members are saying
“ This is a great group to hang out with some guys to talk shop (babies, sports, life in general) and have your baby play with bunch of great kids. ...
”
“ Dads who are home with their kid(s) should really try to join in one week. It's great to get out for yourself, start the socialization of your children and share successes in your world. ”
