In Our Mom Era

In this week’s episode of Our Mom Era, we are joined by Alexandra, founder of Kindisch and mom of four boys. We talk about motherhood, entrepreneurship, and the journey that brought her to where she is today. Alexandra also shares important insights about UV swimwear, sun protection for kids, and what parents should know to help keep their children safe in the sun. We learned so much from this conversation and loved hearing Alexandra’s honest perspective on balancing family life and building a business.

The Swiss school system… simple? Not exactly. In this episode, we break down everything from kindergarten to graduation, explain the confusing school tracks and talk about what it’s really like raising kids in Switzerland. We also touch on kids’ dental care, tooth-brushing struggles, and Elin casually reveals she still had two baby teeth until three years ago.

In this episode of In Our Mom Era, we share the real, unfiltered side of becoming a mom, from hearing “mom” all day long to constantly being covered in mess. We also talk about the identity shift after having a baby and the challenge of balancing career and family life.

Car seats, bike helmets, and safety habits we grew up with.

Elin shares why she’s so passionate about car safety, from growing up in Sweden (where safety is a big deal) to witnessing a serious car accident that completely changed how she thinks about kids in traffic. We also touch on the surprising differences in how safety is handled, from car seats to biking without helmets.

In this episode, we talk about the reality of moving with kids. Larissa recently went through a move and shares what actually helped make the transition easier for her kids, and what was more chaotic than expected…

We also get into the topic of kids’ birthday parties and how they’ve become a whole thing. From simple home parties with hotdogs and ice cream when we were growing up to today’s location-based celebrations and detailed party planning. Has it all gotten a bit out of hand?

In this episode of Mom Era, we’re covering everything from confetti to serious topics.

We talk about Fasnacht in Switzerland (yes, apparently you can celebrate it in Zurich!?), Larissa’s very exotic vacation plans, and then shift gears to something every parent should know: first aid for babies and toddlers.

Episode 10 is here and we’re answering your questions.

In this fun Q&A episode, we dive into everything from how to actually find mom friends (without it feeling awkward 😅), to handling full-on toddler tantrums in public, and planning a a whole week in an Italian mansion

We also chat about Larissa organizing mom meetups and building the kind of village we all wish came built-in.

Moving in a snowstorm, a truck stuck in the snow, a broken table, and a car crash — plus big conversations about family life, Swiss taxes, and a toddler’s very big new bed.

Eating out with kids: fun family time or total chaos? Elin usually prefers to skip it altogether, while Larissa has learned how to make it work (and even enjoy it). From bringing snacks to keeping little ones entertained, we share what really helps turn a restaurant visit into a success, and why one simple tip leaves Elin completely shocked.

Christmas really has the audacity. Advent calendars planned months ahead, kids earning their gifts, and entire countries stopping for cartoons. We compare Swiss and Swedish Christmas traditions and talk gift pressure, expectations, and the chaos behind the magic.
