"When fathers are prepared, families are stronger — beginning on the very first day."
About the Founder
Mike Capp
Founder, The Father's Guide Series · Covenant Life Birth & Wellness Foundation
"Fathers shouldn't be passive observers at their children's births. They should be the steady, informed, faith-filled presence every laboring woman deserves."
I know what it feels like to stand at the threshold of your wife's labor — heart pounding, wanting desperately to help, and not knowing what to do with your hands.
The Father's Guide was born from that experience and a simple conviction: when fathers are prepared, families are stronger. This series is built for the man who wants to lead well — in the birth room, through the postpartum weeks, and in every season of fatherhood that follows.
Rooted in faith. Built for fathers. Designed to equip.
Common Questions
A few things fathers — and their wives — usually want to know first.
Absolutely. The Father's Guide to Home Birth covers the full arc of birth support — comfort techniques, labor stages, emotional preparation, and spiritual leadership — most of which applies regardless of where you deliver. Many fathers take the course while still weighing their options, and find it helps them have better conversations with their midwife or OB. The knowledge is yours no matter how birth day unfolds.
The course is designed to be completed in a single focused weekend — or spread across a few evenings at your own pace. Most fathers finish all 7 modules in 3–5 hours total. You have lifetime access, so you can revisit any module as your due date approaches or after birth day.
The Father's Guide is built on a Christian, faith-rooted foundation — that's core to who we are and how we approach fatherhood. The curriculum references Scripture and spiritual leadership as part of the birth experience. That said, the practical content — labor support, home preparation, emergency readiness — is valuable to any father. We believe faith and preparation go hand in hand, but we welcome every father who wants to show up better for his family.
Yes — and your midwife would likely agree. Midwives care for your wife. This course prepares you. It covers what to do between prenatal visits, how to support her through each stage of labor, how to set up your home, and how to stay calm and decisive when the moment comes. A great midwife and a prepared father are not substitutes for each other — they work together.
The course is self-paced video — narrated modules you can watch on any device, at any time. There are no live sessions to schedule around and no reading-heavy content. Downloadable checklists and reference cards accompany each module so you have something tangible to keep. Access is lifetime, so nothing expires.
Module 5 is dedicated entirely to emergency preparedness — transfers, unexpected situations, and how to stay calm and decisive when it matters most. We don't gloss over the hard questions. Being prepared means knowing what to do when plans change, and this course addresses that directly. A prepared father is the first line of calm in any unexpected situation.
The course is written and taught specifically for fathers — the perspective, the language, and the examples are all aimed at equipping the man in the room. That said, many couples watch modules together and find it sparks great conversations about expectations, roles, and birth preferences. One enrollment gives your whole household lifetime access.
