In this episode, I share an honest, personal look at growing up —
and raising kids — in Switzerland. From pregnancy and maternity
leave to daycare, grandparents, and the differences between city
and countryside life, I talk about the everyday realities many
families only discover along the way.

This episode is based on my own experience, first as a child and
now as a mother. It’s not about statistics or perfect systems,
but about how things actually work in daily life — especially for
families who didn’t grow up here.

Transcripts: The Swiss German transcript of
every episode was written by myself, by hand — because no
software can truly capture the beauty of the
dialect. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Get it here⁠⁠⁠⁠.

part of their perks — thank you for helping me share Swiss German
with the world.
