Great question — and the answer is: mostly, yes… with a little help and a lot of heart.
The majority of what you see on The Sage Dad site is handcrafted by me, right here in our home workshop and kitchen. Some of our items — especially the beautiful, practical ones — are made by my wonderful mom Marilyn or my father-in-law Ed, whose skills and support make this work possible.
That said, we also feature a small collection of curated goods — thoughtfully selected from like-minded makers and small businesses. These items are:
Whether it’s handcrafted here or sourced from a fellow artisan, you can trust that every item we carry is something we’d use in our own home — and often do.
We believe in thoughtful work, meaningful connection, and goods that are made to last.
That’s the heart behind everything we offer.
The Sage Dad is more than a name — it’s a mission.
We’re about showing up with heart, embracing the chaos, and raising confident, kind, and curious daughters (and sons!) through intentional, joyful parenting.
Whether you found us through a loaf of sourdough, a podcast episode, or a delivery bag doodle, welcome. You’re in good company.
Because Being Present Starts With Taking Care of Yourself
Before the bread and the bedtime stories, before the podcast and the play kits, there was just one tired dad, standing at the bathroom sink, wondering how to show up better tomorrow.
That’s where our self-care line begins — not with luxury, but with need.
We talk a lot about showing up for our kids.
Being patient. Being kind. Being playful.
But here’s the truth most dads don’t say out loud:
You can’t pour from an empty cup.
If we want to be present — not just in the room, but emotionally engaged — we need to care for ourselves too. That’s not selfish. That’s smart.
It’s sustainable.
It’s how we build strength and gentleness that lasts through the hard days and the joyful ones.
Our self-care line is simple, intentional, and made with the same heart we bring to our kitchen:
No harsh chemicals. No overpromises.
Just things that feel good, smell like peace, and remind you that you matter too.
It’s for the 10-minute window before the house wakes up.
It’s for after you’ve wiped little noses and packed little lunches.
It’s for when your brain is loud and your back is sore and you just need to breathe.
Our self-care products aren’t about escape.
They’re about equipping you — to show up calm, clear, and connected.
We believe being a good dad starts with being a well dad.
So light the candle. Use the good soap. Rub the balm on your calloused palms.
You’re doing more than grooming —
You’re resetting, refilling, and returning to the day with intention.
Because your daughter is watching.
And the best gift you can give her is your whole, present self.
