Our Name
Ready To Dad means being emotionally and mentally prepared to meet your child's needs. Ready To Dad represents self-awareness, understanding our patterns, and being present for our children without projecting our unmet needs onto them. Ready to Dad involves continuous personal growth and a willingness to learn from the child while fostering a mutually respectful relationship.
Our Mission
Make your transition into the different stages of fatherhood as smooth as possible so you can enjoy the many joys of raising a child. We help you prepare for fatherhood by helping you be your best self and partner.
Our Story
Welcome! I’m so grateful you’re here!
The creation of Ready to Dad began with Javaree, Dr. Alana, our oldest, and an idea!
Parenthood is undoubtedly one of life's most significant life events and milestones. The focus of Ready to Dad is to prepare fathers to bring their best selves to parenthood, creating a lifestyle that supports your well-being and your partner raising your little human with you.
We provide information, inspiration, and guidance for men regardless of their place in their unique journey as a dad.
I’m Javaree, the founder and Certified Parent Coach at Ready to Dad.
Together, we work smart and hard to live our best lives. We look at family chores as teamwork rather than mom’s job or dad’s job. We enjoy learning how to create new recipes for our son, testing new products, and exploring the world as time permits
In 2020, my wife and I got pregnant with our son Miles, and everything changed - forever.
At the time, we did not know what we needed or what to expect during pregnancy, labor & delivery, infancy, and now toddlerhood. After a cautious pregnancy, dealing with postpartum, buying baby products, and struggling through different parts of raising a child and having many successes all the way. Together, we vowed to tell everyone the *secrets* that nobody told us — the things that aren't talked about as often as they could be talked about.
Our Focus
Your journey into fatherhood is unique to you. Whether it started with a positive pregnancy test result, an exciting call from the adoption agency, months (or even years) of trying to conceive, or a new relationship, preparing for a new baby, or developing a child at any stage can be overwhelming, especially for first-time parents. Not many life milestones offer such a range of emotional, financial, spiritual, and physical changes to our lives.
