Welcome to SwissCast, where Switzerland’s stories come to life in English.
Her mother-in-law’s advice was that crying helps babies develop their lungs. The advice from home was the opposite. Sasha Romary was raising her first child in Paris, caught between two cultures that agreed on almost nothing.
In this episode, Sasha shares what it was like becoming a mother in France, then Singapore, then Germany, and what pushed her to become a sleep and parenting coach: the isolation of getting contradictory advice in two languages, the shame of a crying baby in a quiet Parisian café, and the much harder fight to get a child who didn’t fit the local school system the support he needed. She and Arielle also get into how a child’s age changes what kind of school will actually work abroad, and why “home,” for a family that moves often, ends up being less about the address and more about the traditions a family carries with them.
