Providing the Dad's Perspective You've Been Looking For
Hi, I'm David - a UK-based stay-at-home dad sharing the real, unfiltered journey of fatherhood with my daughter, Lily. What started as capturing precious moments has grown into a community of 60,000+ YouTube subscribers and a growing presence across social media, reaching families who crave authentic dad content.
From a Mercedes mechanic's toolbox to a toddler's toy box, I've swapped careers to document what really matters - and families around the world are tuning in.
Why Partner With Old Dad Diary?
The Dad's Perspective
Most parenting content comes from mums. I provide the perspective that's often missing - the dad's view. Whether it's product testing, honest reviews, or everyday parenting challenges, I bring a fresh angle that resonates with fathers, families, and anyone interested in modern parenting.
Authentic Storytelling
This isn't manufactured content. Every video, every post comes from genuine experience. My audience trusts my recommendations because they know I'm living this life alongside them - not performing it.
