Being Miles Apart Doesn’t Mean Being Absent

Real fatherhood. Real life. Staying connected, no matter the distance.

Welcome to BajaDad. I’m Curtise, a father learning how to stay present in my children’s lives while parenting from afar.

I spent years raising my boys in Mexico, sharing the everyday moments that make family life what it is. Today, life looks different. I’m in the UK, and my boys are across the Atlantic. The bedtime routines, school runs, and spontaneous conversations I once took for granted aren’t part of my everyday life anymore.

But being a dad doesn’t stop because you’re no longer under the same roof.

BajaDad is where I share the lessons, challenges, laughter, and occasional frustrations of parenting from a distance. We talk about staying connected with our children, making co-parenting work, planning family visits, and finding ways to stay involved even when we can’t be there in person.

I’m not here because I’ve figured fatherhood out. I’m here because I’m still learning, still making mistakes, and still showing up.

And if you’re a parent trying to do the same, you’re in the right place.

Every child deserves a parent who keeps showing up.
