Be Your Best

Being a dad is the most important and challenging job of your life. But it can also be the most rewarding. As with any great challenge, the more you put in - the more you get out.

The Dad Train is for men who want to be proactive and intentional in their parenting. Because it’s too important a job to just wing it.

Be a better dad

Hi I'm Scott,

I believe there should be more information, resources and support for modern dads and that’s why I started The Dad Train.

I’m on a journey to learn how to be a better dad and I want to help other dads do the same. It’s not about having all the answers or being the perfect parent; none of us is perfect. It’s about being intentional, being engaged and being open-minded to learning and applying new ideas.
