Who is the DadPad for?
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.
