What is “Brews, Bowls + Bubs”?
Many new or expectant dads experience stress, anxiety, or depression but don’t seek help until it becomes severe.
We created “Brews, Bowls + Bubs” to support new dads as they embark on the exciting but at times daunting journey of fatherhood.
We want to set dads up for success! Not only for supporting your partner through the birth of your child and the postpartum period. But also for supporting yourself and your well-being during this transitional period. We recognise that dads who are informed and emotionally supported are better able to support their partners and children.
So join us for a night of fun, education, meeting other dads and, of course, beer and bowls!
Your night will kick off at the RiverDome Thebarton at 6pm. You’ll meet your facilitator who will go through the outline of the night. Grab a beer, settle in, and then we’ll jump into the good stuff—practical, relatable info for new dads. Pizza will show up at some point to share with your new dad buds. There’ll be time for open discussion, questions, and a judgement-free chat about what it really means to step into fatherhood. Then, we’ll wrap things up with a friendly game of lawn bowls—and maybe another beer—as we finish the night with a bit of fun.
These sessions are built specifically for new dads—too often overlooked, but a very important player in the “game” called parenthood. It’s important that you take care of yourself. Not only is it to the benefit of your well-being, but you can’t pour from an empty cup, and your partner and your new baby need a healthy dad.
Join us at our next session by booking online using the calendar below. We’ll see ya there.

“G’day, I’m Liam — an experienced counsellor who understands what a massive shift becoming a dad can be. Whether you’re about to meet your baby or already in the thick of it, I’m here to support you through one of life’s biggest transitions.
I’ve spent the past eight years helping people navigate mental health challenges. I take a down-to-earth, trauma-informed, narrative approach that caters to the individual. I’m here to support you – whether it’s adjusting to fatherhood, making sense of your own upbringing, dealing with birth-related stress, or just needing someone to talk to.
As a counsellor and a father, I’ve seen the highs and lows of parenthood up close. I’m here to walk alongside you, help you build resilience, strengthen your relationships, and take care of your mental wellbeing.
Let’s work together to find what helps you feel grounded, confident, and connected — both as a partner and a dad.
Looking forward to meeting you.
This night is designed for new and expectant dads—whether it’s your first baby or you’re looking for tools and strategies for emotional regulation. You don’t need to know anything about birth or parenting beforehand. But if you have experienced birth, you can share your own tips and insight with the group.
Not at all! It’s super casual. We’ll show you the ropes—it’s more about having a laugh, having a chat and meeting other dads than winning a trophy.
Totally get it. The vibe is relaxed and low-pressure. You won’t be put on the spot or forced to share—we just want you to feel welcome. You don’t even have to stay for bowls if you don’t want to. Totally up to you!
We kick off with a drink and intro, then get into some really useful chats about birth, postpartum and mental health—run by a registered counsellor. There’s pizza, questions, and some good convo. Then we finish off with lawn bowls and another brew if you’re keen.
This one’s just for the dads. It’s a space where blokes can chat freely and learn how to better support their partner and baby.
You get the full event experience:
A hosted, expert-led session
Pizza dinner
Lawn bowls
A little surprise to take home to your partner
And connection with other guys going through the same season
Unfortunately we’re not able to supply the brews but we do supply the bar + staff!
Yes. The night is run by a counsellor, and we’re always happy to connect you with the right support, including one on one sessions. You’re not alone.
