Most websites and services are mainly for mums but the adjustment is just as big for dads as it is for mums. Baby Steps is relevant for both parents.

Baby Steps was written for parents having their first baby, but can be used by anyone with a young baby who wants to learn more about caring for their baby or themselves.

Though Baby Steps is a programme designed to help new parents adjust to life with their baby, offering support that is equally relevant for both mothers and fathers. While primarily aimed at first-time parents, it is also beneficial for anyone with a young infant seeking to learn more about childcare and self-care.

The programme was developed by a multidisciplinary team at Queensland University of Technology, comprising psychologists, midwives, and nurses. Its content was thoroughly reviewed by both first-time parents and an independent panel of experts, including midwives and a paediatrician, ensuring its credibility and practical applicability.

Baby Steps receives funding from beyondblue.
