About Akin: Akin Olunloyo is a passionate father, husband, and advocate for all things fatherhood. With over two decades of experience in parenting, Akin has a genuine love for helping dads navigate the various stages of fatherhood. A proud father of two daughters, Akin knows the challenges and joys of raising children. He has spent countless hours reading bedtime stories, changing diapers, and soothing midnight tears, all while maintaining a thriving, healthy work-life balance. His personal journey through fatherhood has inspired him to share his insights, tips, and heartfelt advice with other dads and dads-to-be. Akin's writing is characterised by its informal and relatable tone with a touch of humour. He believes that laughter is essential to parenting and that every dad can find their unique way to shine. His goal is to empower fathers to embrace their role with confidence, compassion, and a sense of adventure and to also remind them that they're not alone on this journey. His book, ""The Essential Guide for First-Time Dads"", is a culmination of his experiences, research, and conversations with other dads who have walked the same path. Akin is an active member of a men's mentoring group, a singer/songwriter, and enjoys spending quality time with his family, perfecting his dad jokes. He resides in the UK with his wife and two daughters. (You can catch up with Akin on: Instagram: @Dadhood_Unplugged Facebook: @DadhoodUnplugged)

Reviews for The Essential Guide for First-Time Dads: Handy Tips to Build a Bond with Your Baby, Support Your Partner Actively, Reduce Emotional Anxiety and Achieve Work-Life Harmony

Empowerment Coach Voice Actor ""With a combination of tips, demystifying medical terms, pointers to resources, humour, illustrations and even poems, Akin Olunloyo has put together the perfect guide for first-time dads."" - Bukola Akinyemi (Trustee, The Caine Prize for African Writing) .............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. ""What Akin has been able to pull together is more than just an academic piece of work. This is something that is completely him. It is Akin's passion and journey as a friend, husband, father and most of all, a dad. A generous combination of an unshakeable belief in God, strength, awareness, kindness, perception, diligence and doggedness has been woven into the words on the pages of this book for when the reader will need them most."" - Bajo Akisanya (Youth & Young Adult Minister and Pastor, Jesus House for All Nations, London) .............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. ""First, let me say that this book is a fascinating read, and the dads and mums who read and follow the principles mentioned will definitely find them edifying and rewarding. Here, Akin has put together what I would call wisdom nuggets for successful parenting and loving spousal relationships in modern society. His assertion that ""your relationship with your partner is the foundation upon which parenting adventure is built"" is so true! Society is made up of family units, so it's very important to get them to function properly for us to have a healthy society. This book is a tool that will help set many families free and allow the God-given goals intended for them to be accomplished. It will definitely revitalise our modern-day society."" - Funlola Akingbolagun (GM ICT, FAAN) ............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... ""This handbook presents a step-by-step guide for every parent, particularly dads who intend to have a wonderful experience nurturing and caring for their baby. There are so many books on how to care for babies, but this book stands out as it is all-encompassing from conception to delivery and after delivery of your baby.Although there are no sizes that fit all situations, the general idea and counsel from an experienced dad has made this book a must-read for all who desire to experience an exciting journey from the very first signs of pregnancy till the actual physical, emotional, mental and spiritual care of the newborn baby."" - Yemisi Abimbola (Professor of Law, University of Namibia) ...............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
