Hi, we're John and Paul, creators of this course
We created Father’s Ed, our parenting class for dads, for our former selves. We wanted to be involved dads, but we didn’t know where to start. Paul had never held a newborn. What do you do when they cry? What paperwork needs to be done before the baby comes?
We built this course to help new fathers prepare, so they can relax and enjoy the journey.

The FAQs of Life
We’re actually not going to answer this one. Our customer Steven C. is: “In comparison to the class at the hospital, we found that the material is not as similar as we thought. The hospital provided a scientific perspective of pregnancy and what women should expect during the course of their pregnancy and the labor process. They also gave a tour of the hospital and discussed hospital protocol and policy. One of the most helpful things they taught was infant CPR … We’ve found that the Fathers Ed course has covered everything in between.”
Absolutely. Gifting Father’s Ed is a great way to tell your husband/boyfriend/son-in-law to get his shit together before the baby comes (but in a nice way). Just sign up as yourself, email us (support@fathercraft.com) and we’ll transfer the membership to him. We’re even working on a line of e-cards that show you care about him, and that you’ll be anxiously awaiting his confirmation he’s completed the course.
If you need any help with gifting, hit the chat button in the bottom-right or email us at support@fathercraft.com
Father’s Ed is a self-paced, on-demand video course.
You’ll have lifetime access but, the real clock on you is your baby’s due date. You can still get value from the course after your baby is born, but we strongly recommend you complete it ahead of time—firstly, there’s key info about the pre-birth time and the actual birth, secondly, you aren’t going to have a whole lot of free time afterward.
Father’s Ed is built on a foundation of rock-solid research from trusted sources, organized so it’s logical and useful to new parents. Then we added unbridled enthusiasm. Tips, tools, ideas from experts, what has and what hasn’t worked for us as parents to 4 kids. There’s lots of good, free, parenting info on the internet. There’s also a lot of crap and misinformation. With Father’s Ed, we’ve curated the best from experts, added our own first-hand knowledge, and organized it to be fun and helpful to watch. Don’t take our word for it though, check out customer reviews of Father’s Ed.
If you’re using Babylist, just use their bookmark bar tool to add Father’s Ed.
Our scriptwriter actually wrote a bunch of corporate training videos that went viral, so you’re in good hands.
Plus, videos are broken up into short, digestible chunks—the longest one is about 15 minutes. So, they’re easy to fit into your schedule. And, since you can watch from your computer, tablet, or phone, Father’s Ed is easy to take on the go.
Here’s Father’s Ed student Steven C:
“My wife didn’t think she was going to get into it with me, but it turns out she is hooked. John is very entertaining too.”
We wrote Father’s Ed with dads-to-be in mind, and John and I are obviously dads ourselves (though our scriptwriter is a woman).
It’s your call. One idea: buy it for your partner, watch some together, see what happens.
Much of the course will be helpful and relevant if your baby is 1-3 months old, but not all of it. Seeing as you’ve already aced the birth and delivery module, maybe skip that one.
We’ll build a gigantic pillow fort and go in there and cry, probably. But, if you’re unhappy for any reason, just let us know, we’ll refund you. We offer a “baby + 60” no-questions asked money-back guarantee. That means anytime between now an 60 days after your baby is born, you can request a refund by emailing us — support@fathercraft.com.
Look, we get the fact that the prospect of taking an online parenting class from a company you learned about very recently involves a leap of faith.
However we put our hearts and souls and hundreds and hundreds of hours of hard work and research into Father’s Ed, and we stand by it 100%.
So, give it a try and if you don’t like it, we’ll give you a 100% refund anytime before 60 days after your baby is born. It’s as simple as that. There are no forms to fill out. No hidden buttons you have to find. There’s nothing you have to return at your expense (or at all). You just send us an email at support@fathercraft.com, we’ll process your refund. No questions asked, no hard feelings.
We do indeed! Our course software tracks your progress as you work your way through the video course. Watch all the videos, mark them as “complete” in the platform as you do, and send us an email — support@verblio.com — we’ll deliver your certificate of completion.
We’re here for you. support@fathercraft.com. We can’t answer medical questions, but your pediatrician can, and part of the course is designed to help you find a great one.
We offer all major forms of credit card, and you can also pay by PayPal.
Great! We’ll get you digital course access within about 5 minutes. We can’t offer free shipping of the companion guide outside the U.S., but we’ve made shipping as inexpensive as possible.
It’s also worth noting that when it comes to logistics—insurance, paperwork, etc., and the gear we discuss in the course, we are U.S.-centric, so not all of it will apply. (Though our favorite car seat is Italian and our favorite all-around stroller is British.)
But, at least in our opinion, most of the parenting principles are universal.
And, new dads around the world seem to agree! We’ve had customers in Australia, Brazil, Canada, France, England, Ireland, Japan, Singapore, Spain, Switzerland, the United Arab Emirates, and Vietnam.
Umm it’s beyond compare. Just kidding, there are other solid parenting classes for dads online. We’re biased obviously, but in Father’s Ed we focused on a few things: 1) being comprehensive. A lot of what we’ve found out there is focused, but not comprehensive. 2) being well-researched. We put hundreds of hours of research into Father’s Ed using ironclad sources, so you know the info is rock-solid. 3) being fun. If you aren’t having fun while learning, you’re not going to learn as much (or worse you’ll quit). We guarantee Father’s Ed will entertain you, or your money back.
Plus, while we take our material seriously, we don’t take ourselves too seriously. And we have better t-shirts. Put that all together, we think it’s the best of parenting classes for dads out there. And again, let us prove it to you—try Father’s Ed. If you don’t like it or don’t feel it was worth it within 60 days of your baby being born, we’ll give you your money back. It’s that simple.
The Father’s Ed companion guide is designed to be the perfect companion to the course.
It’s 94 pages of supplemental info, checklists, charts, and more.
You’ll get instant access to the downloadable PDF version of the workbook, and we’ll ship out the spiral-bound copy right away after you purchase Father’s Ed, usually the same day.
We do. Shoot us an email for more information. support@fathercraft.com.
I’m a first-time father-to-be, and this course has been wonderfully informative about all the things I sorta knew about and many things that were completely new to me. The videos are well-organized and easily digestible. More than anything, the course helped me to feel more confident about what is to come!
As being a first time father my partner wanted me to take classes and have an idea for what to expect from the hospital to the new born coming to the house and everything in between and I was stressing where to start and which classes are better I came across Fathers Ed. Showed my partner this website as she has kids on her own as she approves it as it goes along how to carry a baby, feeding (and if not breast feeding then formula) and most importantly sleep. I loved the modules very detailed and very funny dad puns which I can use later. I am now confident with now my a week and 1 day year old baby and I’m glad I took this class.
Fathercraft is a fun way to learn about our upcoming baby’s do’s and don’t. This is my third training course (I am a preparer) and the information covered + checklists provided are top notch. If you are looking to be engaged while learning about your future baby I highly recommend taking this course.
Great videos! Very entertaining and helpful. Each module is not too long and easy to follow with the workbook. Learning a lot as a first time dad.
I feel much more prepared after taking this course. My wife and I had no idea how to do basic baby skills, so this course saved us the awkwardness of learning on the fly.
Very useful. We have taken several classes and read several books and this still had useful information we did not know. Appreciated that paperwork was one of the topics.
Wanted to say that Father’s Ed is is awesome. Sadly I have a 3 month old daughter and am going thru a divorce, but because of this course I am allowed more time alone with her because I have the basic tools to soothe, change and care for her. Thank you so much!!
Has been very helpful giving me more confidence and a plan as an soon to be dad.
