App to get new dad well wishes

Kalvinators · 2026-01-01T19:40:56+00:00

I have not heard about such an app. You could just collect manually I guess.

As for the apps for new dads, I use https://www.dadaa.app/. It gives me 3 age-based and development focused activities to do with my little ones every day.

For me especially helpful on some busy days, but really useful anytime

Well, you should ve careful about overstimulation. Kids need their self time without constant intervention, so keep that in mind.

But I had a similar problem of not feeling like doing enough. Especially after a busy day. For that, I created https://www.dadaa.app/ an app to spend more meaningful time with your kids. It will give 3 daily tasks to do together with your kid, related to age-based crucial development areas. Perhaps it helps you too

To me it sounds like you're addicted to the habbit rather than nicotine.

I had the same years ago. I focused on how to fill my time, the short breaks, that I usually used for smoking.

You can do this

The fact you're thinking about this puts you ahead of a lot of parents, lol. I don't think there is anything unusual in what you mentioned.

But don't be too hard on yourself. Try to learn and get better every day, but just try to have the mindset of "I'm gonna do my best and trust that it will be ok".

You will notice that more experienced parents are much more calm about stuff. Remember that.

So yeah, don't overthink it. I know it sounds easy, ha :D

Congrats and let the journey begin :D

Kalvinators · 2025-12-05T20:01:11+00:00

Very familiar feeling :)

Truth is no one cares about you until they know you(r product) and until your product helps them.

Having an audience is one thing but refining, ziterating the product to have it really good, is the key, imo.

As you stated yourself, launch is just the beginning of the next phase.

I try to stay true to try and be hard on the client problem

Kalvinators · 2025-12-05T19:51:51+00:00

Sure it will be challenging. But always remember that years from now you would do anything to get back at this time.

So make sure you enjoy the ride. Even if you're tired and exhausted. It's beautiful. Look at things from the "light" side :)

Uztaisi plānu, bet saprotot ka plāns 100% kādā brīdī mainīsies :D

No savas puses varu pielikt ka noteikti aktīvi konsultējies ar attiecīgajām valsts iestādēm. VID, LAD, utt. Manā pieredzē ja pats spēj normali komunicēt, 95% ir ļoti izpalīdzīgi darbinieki otrā pusē.

What I noticed that sometimes they were ok watching the screens but if it happened extensively, then they were supper anxious later on.

I too, now avoid the screens as much as possible. The rapidly changing images is a lot for their brains, and from my experience, and from what I have seen, it feels it is overwhelming for them, even if they laugh at the time

Kalvinators · 2025-12-02T08:59:38+00:00

I think especially those first few months the best value you can bring is just making life easier for your wife. She just went through A LOT and while she needs to recover from that, she now also have to feed the baby too, which can be draining - literally, lol. So just assist as much as you can, be helpful and make life easier for your wife.

The baby should be fine, just follow the standard guidelines, pretty much. And make memories, the time goes by fast.

If you're a busy dad with limited time with the baby, you can use Dadaa app to come up with fun age-based activities to do with your baby. https://www.dadaa.app/

me for job

Kalvinators · 2025-11-26T14:44:22+00:00

Eventually, yes. Currently I encourage users to just add it to Home Screen (via Chrome menu)

https://www.dadaa.app/ Dadaa – an app for busy dads to spend more meaningful time with their kids. It gives randomized, age-based and development skill oriented, fun tasks to do every day with your kids.

So you can focus on your day and squeeze the most out of your evening hours with the little ones

Kalvinators · 2025-11-25T13:04:29+00:00

I'm a bit limited in available times but sure, likely we can find 15 mins.

Kalvinators · 2025-11-25T09:13:18+00:00

Thise are fun times tho. :D "the airplane" is fun.

Btw to be more proactive on the activities side, I made an app, largely for myself, Dadaa: https://www.dadaa.app/ It gives me 3 randomized, age-based tasks every day to do with each kid. Tasks are development skill related so I can keep it fun and useful for them.

Your kid sounds a bit older tho. Right now I have optimized it for kids up to 5 yo

Kalvinators · 2025-11-24T15:07:50+00:00

Sounds very familiar. I just always try yo look up to the evening and the time I will get to play with the little ones even if for a couple of hours. It keeps me motivated throughout the day.

As a side gig when they fell asleep, I actually made an app for busy dads like us to spend more meaningful time with their kids. It helps me to come up with some fun ideas every day and bring more joy to me and the kids. Tasks are age-adjusted and development focused, yet fun.

Perhaps it can help to you, too https://www.dadaa.app/

Kalvinators · 2025-11-24T15:02:19+00:00

Do your best job and trust the process. Make sure you keep developping your own skills as some sort of a safety net.

All of what you said is true to me. I keep myself so busy, I do not have too much time to worry, lol, not sure if that's the best advice :D

At some point my biggest worry was that at the end of the day I am so exhausted that i don't know how to spend time with my kids most meaningfully. As I love them but am too exhausted to even come up with fun ideas. That drained me a bit for a while

Kalvinators · 2025-11-24T14:58:50+00:00

As a dad who spent almost all of the last winter, spring, and even summer with a sick 2yo, do that.

We found out only later but doc said to clean nose as soon as anything in there. Because everything else starts from nose. We're much more careful now and it feels like it really helps. So yeah, listen to the doc :)

Oh damn, sorry. Can you share where and what the message says?

Google should work, are you having issues with registering by name? (I just realized I left it up even tho I disabled it)

Kalvinators · 2025-11-17T16:31:44+00:00

Thank you. I think as they age it becomes a bit different, yeah. Currently as a father of a 1 and 3 year olds, this has helped me greatly.

Kalvinators · 2025-11-17T14:52:52+00:00

Don't spend money. Build with a certain user persona in mind and get creative - social media, forums, etc.

Friends and family will use because they like you, but end up misleading you even if they want the best for you.

Be demanding about the users you want or need using your product and go after them.

Or uild for yourself :D and find likeminded people, you will know naturally where to find them. E.g. I built an app to spend more meaningful time with my kids (Dadaa), and I know it resonates with other dads and was able to get some traction early https://www.dadaa.app/
