My I CAN Dad Profile
Every dad is already fathering in four ways. This shows you which two are carrying you right now, and one small thing worth trying this week.
- InvolvementTime and shared moments
- ConsistencyBeing steady day to day
- AwarenessKnowing your child's world
- NurturanceShowing love and care
About four minutes. Thirty-two quick statements, one per screen. You see your profile straight away, with no name or email needed.
Which one sounds like you?
There are six profiles, each built on two of the four strengths.
- The Rock (Involvement and Consistency)You show up, and you keep showing up. Your child knows they can count on you.
- The Explorer (Involvement and Awareness)You join your child's world and really see what is going on inside it.
- The Cheerleader (Involvement and Nurturance)You are right there in the action, cheering your child on with warmth.
- The Compass (Consistency and Awareness)Steady and tuned in. Your child always knows where they stand with you.
- The Safe Harbour (Consistency and Nurturance)Dependable and warm. You are the safe place your child comes back to.
- The Heart Reader (Awareness and Nurturance)You notice how your child feels, and you respond with love.
A short reflection built on the I CAN framework, grounded in research with more than 1,500 fathers. Answer how things really are, not how you wish they were. There are no right answers and no score to pass. Your result is a picture of this season, and seasons change.
Private by default. You can see your profile without giving us a name or an email. If you would like it emailed, or a check-in in six months, we ask for your email and, if you like, your first name. Nothing is shared publicly unless you choose to share it.
