I am also a new to Doha full time dad. who is home schooling my 6 and 8 year old girls until they can start school, keen to find them someone to play with etc
Hi there! I have arrived and we are two weeks in now to settling into Doha! I would be happy to meet and my two year old son certainly needs some more interaction with some play mates! So why dont we just pick a date that works for everyone and meet at the park next to the Islamic Museum or the Landmark Park - they are the only ones I know right now but both had quite a lot there for the kids!
I maybe not a 24/7 everyday fulltime dad. But because of my job nature, I'm a fulltime dad during my offduty weeks. My job schedule is 7days working & 7 days off.
So when i'm offduty, I just let my wife do whatever she wanted like hang around with her frens etc. while I'm taking care of my kids at home or hang out with em.
One thing I can say is kudos to the dad's, you guys do soooo much to take care of our families and sometimes we mom's get lost in our own worlds to realize it.'
My husband is a stay at home dad too. I tried to get with QL to create a group for stay at home dads. Didnt happen.
The same as the stay at home mom's, dad's seem some life outside of watching the kids or even just staying with the kids.
PM me and I'll send you my hubby's #. I'm sure he'd be very happy to get together and chat.

Welcome to Qatar and send me a message and I'll get you his contact --- email/phone, whatever
Thanks sounds like there is a few like me out there so I guess next stop is to pioneer a group lets see how it goes. Sponsored by my wife so not difficult. I have left behind a hand made furniture company which once my son is at school I will look to produce here as it does seem we could do with some good furniture here. Many thanks to all your replies and yes I am a lucky man for being in this position and am certainly looking forward to it, I will post a new thread shortly to try and set up a dads group.
This certainly calls for a new type of visa... Sounds a bit complicated but interesting.. then would your profession on your passport state that you are a housewife or (house husband)

Hey Magsies,
I maybe not a 24/7 everyday fulltime dad. But because of my job nature, I'm a fulltime dad during my offduty weeks. My job schedule is 7days working & 7 days off.
So when i'm offduty, I just let my wife do whatever she wanted like hang around with her frens etc. while I'm taking care of my kids at home or hang out with em.
Is there any update on this? I would love to join, sometimes staying at home all alone is not fun at all :))
Let me know if there is any updates
