What we’re about
NYC Dads Group is moving to WhatsApp!
Join us by the end of the month to ensure you are included in future events, meetups, and community conversations with other dads.
Meet other New York City dads -- stay-at-home dads, work-from-home dads, working dads, all involved fathers from in and around the NY Metro area (including Jersey City, Long Island and Westchester County) -- to socialize and interact with other guys who enjoy spending quality time with their kids.
Follow us on:
• Facebook
• Twitter
• Instagram
Our primary goal is to form an inclusive and active community of involved dads so we can do activities together and take advantage of the wonderful resources that the city has to offer.
Organized meetup events are offered several times per week at a local park, playground, museum, playgym, children's venue, parent & me class, zoo, restaurant, or someone's playroom/lounge in their building.
Additionally, check out our web site to read about playgroup experiences, relevant news articles, upcoming events and happenings, research, work-life balance, tips for new and expectant dads, and more from a diverse group of dad voices: https://citydadsgroup.com
** Please note this group is strictly for Dads with kids (and dads-to-be). We want this group to be a comfortable place for Dads to learn and talk about anything parent related.

See all- Join WhatsApp! NYC Dads Group Migrating to WhatsApp from MeetupNeeds location
Hey NYC Dads,
It's been a while and hope everyone is well. We have an important and exciting announcement about the future of the NYC Dads Group: we are shifting from the Meetup.com platform in favor of an NYC Dads Group WhatsApp Community. Most future communications will be happening within our WhatsApp community chat.
Several other City Dads Group meetup groups around the country have been piloting WhatsApp Groups for a few months with some success - there is more enthusiasm, group discussion/connectedness, meetup frequency, and meetup attendance. As most of you know, NYC Dads Group has been fairly dormant since the Pandemic. Moving to WhatsApp seems to be a viable path forward into the future with the goal of connecting dads and meeting up.
Join us here: https://chat.whatsapp.com/JVX5TNfyvsPIEP7GHJXSU6 by the end of the month to ensure you are included in future events, meetups, and community conversations with other dads. Our goal is that this new platform will provide a more timely, easy, and personal way to connect with the support, resources, and connections that are at the heart of the City Dads Group experience.

Thank you, everyone, for being a part of NYC Dads Group. Matt and I have worked incredibly hard over the years to create an amazing platform for fathers. We hope you'll join us as we continue to build more support for dads within our city and beyond! Please give us a few days to accept membership requests.
Lastly, as many of you know, Matt and I have older kids. We're not able to plan meetups for eager fathers with younger kids. As we embark on this new chapter, if you're interested in being involved in an organizer role or planning meetups in your neighborhood, please message me on the WhatsApp group or email me directly lance10_somerfeld@yahoo.com.
With gratitude,
Lance (and Matt)
