DadPad app further development

1. About Dadpad and Inspire Cornwall CIC

The DadPad was developed and piloted by the team at Inspire Cornwall CIC in 2012. We are a Social Enterprise with no shareholders, putting any profit and feedback back into our products for the benefit of the new dads and their families. The DadPad was created because babies don't come with a set of instructions, and dads told us they wanted important information on what to expect and how to care for their baby. We listened to what dads, their partners and professionals asked for and combined it all in this new DadPad for dads-to-be - see: https://thedadpad.co.uk/.

2. Background and Context

2. What is the DadPad?

2. The DadPad is for fathers who want to provide their child with the very best start in life. Whether you are about to become a dad for the first time, or want to ensure that you can still cover all bases with a new addition to your family, the DadPad is the low-cost, high-value resource that you will want to have within arm's reach at all times.

2. The DadPad is best utilised as early as possible during pregnancy, around birth and beyond, and provides guidance for babies and children up to the age of two. It's particularly useful to have during paternity leave.
