5 Nico Bolzico #GirlDad Moments With Tili That Will Melt Your Heart

More than being the leader of his so-called #BulliedHusbandsClub, where he gives tips on how men could be better partners to their wives, you can also count on Nico Bolzico if you're in need of inspiration on being a #girldad.

When he's not pranking his wife Solenn Heussaff, or busy thinking of dad jokes, best believe Nico is spending his precious time with their 2-year-old daughter Thylane "Tili" Bolzico.

Known as a funnyman on the internet, the Argentine would once in a while, show his serious side when it comes to Tili. Since Solenn gave birth, Nico has always been vocal about being a present dad to his child.

In a 2021 interview with Cosmo.ph, Nico said that one of the things he promised to himself when he became a father was "I would spend first two hours of every day of my life with her until she doesn't want anymore."

He adds, "I do wake up, and the first thing I do is I go to her."

True enough, for two years now, the Bolzico family's followers have witnessed how much Nico adores Tili. Countless times, he's proved to be a doting dad. Below we list some of our most favorite #girldad moments of 'El Padre' Nico.

5 funny and heartwarming girl dad moments of Nico Bolzico

1. When he decided to work less hours and spend more time with Tili

Six hours—that's the number of hours in a day that Nico said he would spend time with his daughter Tili, and that's non-negotiable.

"Thylane is my priority...When it comes to time distribution of my day-to-day, she's become the priority in the sense that she's more important than work," Nico says in a podcast.

However, there are still times when he would be away from Tili. Last 2021, for a time, the two were apart for three weeks, and their reunion video showed how much Nico missed #TiliBolz. (Watch it here).

2. When he's always willing to be Tili's playmate

Whether it be pretend play, getting into interactive board games, or chasing a duck, Nico is always ready to be Tili's playmate. Experts and various studies have promoted the benefits of play, especially during the first three years of a child. (Read more here)

In his most recent post, Nico was visibly enjoying playtime with Tili while they pretended to be in a restaurant setting where the adorable toddler gets to be the chef and Nico the customer. 

Nico really got into the character and even left a review on Tili's service. LOL!

Other than being Tili's playmate, Nico also plays the role of educator. Just look back at this moment when he gave Tili a lesson about being patient.

4. When he penned a heartfelt letter for Tili's first birthday

This is one of those instances when Nico would drop the joker persona and get sentimental about being a dad.

On Tili's first birthday, he listed down 12 promises he vowed to keep forever. The most heartwarming ones are:

I will be there in all your big moments. You are the one who decides what a big moment is.

I will have long, meaningful conversations with you whenever you allow me to.

I will protect you when you need to be protected.

I will try not to reject every suitor you bring home.

All these show that Nico aims to avoid authoritarian parenting. As early as possible, he's clear that as a parent, he is there to guide, not to impose. (Read all of Nico's promises to Tili here)

5. When he got dumped on, but he didn't mind

Remember that moment when Tili's bath time took a "turn of events"? But instead of feeling all icky, Nico said, "I have never thought I was gonna be so happy that someone [poop emoji] on me!"
