While Clannad After Story is not entirely about raising a child, it does spend a significant amount of time developing its adolescent character. If you liked the parent concept in After Story then you will enjoy Usagi Drop as the entire show is about what it's like to be a parent. Both anime display great emotions that will make you both happy and sad throughout the journey.
Anime that tell a story about how a single 20-30-year-old man raise a very young child alone. Both stories take audience through the hard yet satisfying trip known as parenthood.

Usagi Drop is also about a single guardian raising a child, and it has a similar feel to it. The stories are both heartwarming and heartbreaking at the same time.

Both focus on the challenges it takes as a single parent to become a blissful family after tragedy of some type, though Clannad 2nd season can be grim and not for the light hearted. Clannad 2nd season's main focus is more drama and romance for the beginning majority as well. Although both do have very enjoyable prevailing slice of life theme too. Excellent voice acting for both series.
If you can't get enough of the cuteness of raising a little girl, you should definitely watch the other. In both series, a single father starts to raise a cute girl around 5 years old. Both fathers go through significant character development after taking on their new roles. The challenges and emotions of this are portrayed heavily.
Be warned though, Clannad: After Story has a lot more drama and tragedy. Usagi Drop is a happy walk in the part by comparison.

This anime has some of the same the father-daughter cuteness going for it.
The main characters both learn and grow a lot from the beginning to the end of both shows.
Once you, personally, have finished both of these shows, you feel as if you know more about yourself and what you value most in life. :)
Both have as main theme the importance of family, especially the parenthood. How both shows portray the way of the main characters of fighting to grow up a child is superb in their own way, while Clannad: After Story is extremely dramatic and a truly masterpiece, in contrast with the kind slice of life pacing of Usagi Drop.
Remember to watch Clannad first.

In the latter half of Clannad After Story specifically. Both anime follow an estranged protagonist with troubles stemming from their past. In Clannad the protagonist struggles from recent trauma; whereas Usage Drop's protagonist, volunteering as acting guardian for an ostracized child relative, finds love and purpose for his old melancholy chapter of life to bloom into something much more beautiful. Both focus on the idea of familiarity and love. All while having great comedic moments accompanying great emotional resonance.
DO NOT READ IF YOU HAVEN'T WATCHED CLANNAD: AFTER STORY
If you liked the last part of Clannad after the turning point, you will really like Usagi drop. The entire anime is about the interactions of the two characters in a unique way for most anime. However for the most part where Clannad had a heavy sense of regret and sadness in it, Usagi Drop is much more light hearted, although still relatively serious discussing some topics about how children treat each other, and later on how adults treat each other too. The specials weren't bad either, even though they were to short to get any

Both the shows deals with an adult raising a child. While usagi drop is a light hearted show whereas clannad after story is very dark. The setting in clannad after story is different but the premise is same. But beware of you wish for an ending that feels good then don't watch clannad after story. The hardship faced by a working adult while raising a child is shown in both the anime's.
Both the shows have parental figures care of their kids and showing off their loving nature towards them.
