If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed trying to travel with young kids—and wished you had real-time support—you’re not alone. This episode is for parents navigating the chaos of packing, planning, and problem-solving on the go.
We’re joined by Nicky Rishi, twin mom and founder of Miss Poppins, an AI-powered parenting platform that offers expert-backed support through every phase of the parenting journey. From coaching through travel stress and jet lag, to packing minimalist (yes, even with twins!), to using vendors like BabyQuip to lighten the load, Nicky shares her philosophy of disrupting parenting by building community and instant access to the help parents actually need.
💬 Just a few of the questions we explored in this episode:
• How can I get parenting support while traveling with kids?
• What are the most useful things to pack—or rent—for travel with kids?
• How do I manage toddler routines and meltdowns during family trips?
• Is it okay to ask for help or outsource tasks while on vacation with kids?
• How can I pack lighter for family travel without forgetting essentials?
