About this Event
My name is Matt Wilson, dad to a 3 year old in 3K at the Y, and 2 month old, and I’m excited to announce I’ll be facilitating a weekly, in-person meetup for dads navigating the early years of parenthood starting next week!
“New dad” can mean you just had your first child, just had your second (or third+), or simply that you’d like to connect with other dads who are in a similar stage of life.
We’ll meet weekly for one hour over the next 7 weeks. The goals are simple: we meet, we share, we exchange resources, we leave knowing at least one more person to say ‘hi’ to on the playground.
A little about myself: prior to my current role in technology project management in financial services, I worked extensively in children’s media and education. I also supervised a program engaging with families navigating critical care environments in hospitals throughout NYC.
I had the good fortune to participate in a New Dads Group at the Y when our first child arrived on the scene. It gave me a weekly destination to connect with folks who were ‘in it’ with me and I really valued the camaraderie around this shared experience.
Join us for our New Dads Group, meeting in person at the Y on Thursdays at 7:00 PM for 7 Weeks. This is a space just for dads to connect, share experiences, ask questions, and build community as they navigate fatherhood. This is a donation based program.
This group is for dads only!
First come, first served, with a waitlist available.
