›What are kiwidaddy and Changing Dads?
Changing Dads is the English edition of kiwidaddy, the international platform that carries the initiative worldwide in 7 languages besides French, around our shared mascot: the kiwi in a diaper. It grew out of Entre pères de couche, the original French community. Here you'll find 83 practical guides, a pregnancy calculator, a quiz and a hospital bag checklist.
›Does this site replace medical advice?
Contact your clinic, doctor or maternity team. Under 3 months, a temperature of 38 °C or above needs urgent medical assessment. Life-threatening emergency: 112 from a mobile.
›Do brands pay to be featured?
No brand pays to be featured here. To keep the initiative running, some partner links pay us a small commission when you order, at no extra cost to you.
›Is artificial intelligence used on the site?
Yes, AI helps us structure the guides and translate the content. Every French guide is proofread and approved by a real dad to make sure it's reliable. Because the other editions are translated automatically, a few typos can slip in now and then: feel free to report them to us!
