Om Podcasten

TV Presenter and father of two children, Nigel Clarke (The Baby Club, The Toddler Club - CBeebies) talks to well-known dads and special guests about their journey through parenthood, and no subject is off the table. Listen to the highs, the lows, the successes, the oh-so-funny fails, the mental struggle and the physical exhaustion from a dad’s point of view. We live in a time when more dads want to be involved in their children’s development but feel it is difficult to find guidance and support. Dadvengers is here to change that, and though it's focused on dads, it’s a podcast for parents one and all. Mums love listening to our podcast. So dads, mums, grandparents, friends and family grab a cuppa and let’s talk parenting.
