Ever wondered what it’s really like raising kids to speak more than one language?

In this episode, we’re diving into our personal journey of raising bilingual children. Our boys speak English and Slovak, and we’re also introducing them to Ghanaian Chi. 

We’re sharing:

  • The little known benefits of bilingual parenting

  • The challenges no one talks about

  • Practical ways to keep multiple languages alive at home

  • How language shapes our kids’ identity and confidence

Whether you're just getting started or deep into the bilingual journey, you’ll walk away with fresh insights, relatable stories, and real tips you can actually use.

Tune in, and let’s explore the beautiful chaos of multilingual parenting together.

Love, Ivana & Yaw xx
