The New Father Care Plan was developed by Laura Parry, LCSW, PMH-C in response to research showing that new fathers have significant, underserved needs during the postpartum period — from infant care skills to mental health support. This resource covers safe sleep, feeding, supporting a partner through physical and emotional recovery, work-life balance, paternity leave, and paternal postpartum depression. It can serve as a companion to the other care plans available or on its own.
