No Family Nearby: Finding People Who'll Speak Your Language to Your Child, with Mimi

If you've been carrying the weight of your child's minority language entirely on your own — this episode is going to change how you think about multilingual parenting.This week Eva is joined by multilingual family expert Mimi to explore one of the most undertalked truths in raising bilingual children: you cannot do this alone, sustainably. Language lives in connection — not in one determined parent pushing harder.We talk about what a 'multilingual village' actually looks like for expat families in the Netherlands, how to build one intentionally when you don't have family nearby, the practical power of language partners and community events, and why having multiple people in your child's language life changes everything.Whether you're parenting in English, Bulgarian, Spanish, French or anything in between — this conversation will leave you feeling less alone and more equipped. For international families in the Netherlands, this is the permission to stop being a one-person show.
