Happy Father's Day to all the amazing dads out there! 💙
While there is often a strong focus on supporting new moms' physical and mental health, it's also important to remember that dads may need extra support during this major life transition too. To all fathers, remember that you're not alone if you’re struggling and seeking support is a sign of strength. At Little Otter, we believe in taking a whole-family approach to care, which means we're always here for you.
This Father's Day, let's celebrate the incredible role dads play in our lives and make sure they feel supported, valued, and understood. Reach out, check in, and remind them that their mental health always matters.
