If you wish to be the best dad
If you wish to be the best dad, this is step one. mANtenatal addresses all of the dad-gaps that standard antenatal classes like NCT overlook. it also includes topics like mental health for dads and what to expect in situations that you may not have considered - it's all about physical and mental preparation and MANtenatal has you covered. Gordon is excellent, great speaker and of course very knowledgeable. I hope the NHS adopts this and begins promoting it as much as they currently promote mum's antenatal classes.
Really great experience all around, Gordon is very knowledgeable and made us feel at ease from the first minutem

The team were unbelievably generous…
The team were unbelievably generous with their programme. Despite a few logistics challenges to connect, I received full access to the course and an open dialogue directly with the founder. I felt as though Mantenatal genuinely cared about my fatherhood journey and I can’t thank them enough for that

no longer invisible
A great space for dad to be’s to get together, chat about the dad’s perspective and really focus in on the impending fatherhood in a supportive space.
Especially in a world where from the sonography visits to the pram shops, the dad is almost always invisible.

MANtenatal is a MUST!
MANtenatal is an absolute MUST! An expertly designed and delivered 2-part course that covers EVERYTHING you might want to know as a Dad-To-Be. Geared towards helping men be the #BestDadYouCanBe. Antenatal courses are great for learning about Mum & Baby, but I was always left feeling unsure of my role as Dad. This is where MANtenatal comes in! I feel so much more prepared now for the arrival of little one. Thank you Gordon - you've created something special here!

MANtenatal covers all of the ‘dad-gaps’ that standard antenatal classes like NCT misses out. It also covers things like mental health for dads and what to expect in moments that you may not have thought about - it’s all about physical and mental preparation and MANtenatal has you covered.
Gordon is brilliant, great speaker and of course very knowledgeable. I hope the NHS picks this up and starts pushing it as much as they currently push ‘mums antenatal’ classes.

Really good experience all round
Really good experience all round, Gordon is really knowledgeable and made us feel at ease from the first minute.
Gordon is a great host of the course. Really informative, teaches a lot of great tips but in a simple way. I took the online group course, which has the added benefit of being in a community of dads in the same boat.
Definitely feel prepared as I can be for the first stages of fatherhood
Thank you

A must for new Dads
I recently completed an online course with MANtenatal, and I can confidently say it has been a life-changing experience. This program has equipped me with the skills and knowledge to become the best dad possible. From comprehensive modules on prenatal care to practical advice on newborn care and parenting, MANtenatal covers it all.
The course is well-structured and easy to follow, making complex topics accessible and engaging. Gordon is very knowledgeable and passionate, offering insights that go beyond the basics. What truly sets MANtenatal apart is their focus on empowering fathers, ensuring that we feel confident and prepared for every step of the parenting journey.
Thanks to MANtenatal, I now feel ready to take on the challenges and joys of fatherhood with enthusiasm and confidence. If you're an expectant dad looking to make a positive impact from day one, I highly recommend MANtenatal. It's an investment in yourself and your family's future that you won't regret.

MANtenatal 14/16 May…
My partner and I met Gordon at a baby and toddler event in Surrey. I am a first time father and no clue at all what I was doing. I signed up for the dad live course (which is discounted at events to buy) and did to two 2hr sessions over zoom. I have gone from having no clue to now being confident in what I need to do to be “the best dad that I can be”. It is 100% worth the money and the WhatsApp “squad” of other people from our squad is a great tool for support as everyone is from different backgrounds and lifestyles.

Would recommend this course to any soon to be dads.
This course is a must for any soon to be dads. It is packed full of useful info and delivered in a way that is easy to understand. It fills a massive hole in the market and has given me so many more tools to make becoming a dad less daunting.
My wife and I have done a bunch of courses ranging from the official NHS ones to custom Hypnobirthing ones. While most of them have been useful in some way or another, none have been so direct, so practical, or so directly applicable to me.
The second day (post birth part) was especially useful to me and already led to some interesting discussions and new decisions made. Thank you, and keep doing good work! Would definitely recommend it to every new dad 🙂

I recently completed the MANtenatal…
I recently completed the MANtenatal course, and I couldn't be more happier with the experience. The course content was incredibly comprehensive, covering everything from the basics of pregnancy to advanced topics like emotional support and practical parenting skills and mental health. Gordon was knowledgeable, engaging and friendly, making complex information accessible and easy to understand. Additionally, the information around pregnancy and a dads role in that was refreshing after attending the NHS antenatal courses which are very much mum based.
One of the standout features was the interactive elements, which allowed for practical learning and real-time feedback. The online community provides a supportive space to share experiences and ask questions, which is invaluable going forward.
Overall, MANtenatal exceeded my expectations and has significantly prepared me for the journey ahead. I highly recommend this course to any expecting father looking to be more involved and supportive during pregnancy and beyond. Thank you, MANtenatal, for this outstanding resource
