In this episode of Parents Like Us, I talk with Beatriz Pastallé — educator, workshop facilitator, and community builder supporting multilingual families in Berlin and beyond.

We speak about home language and why it is not something children need to “outgrow,” but something that shapes their identity, emotional safety, and confidence. Beatriz shares deep insights from her work with families, teachers, and schools, including why children from multilingual homes don’t feel “half-half” — they feel German — and how educators become powerful role models of belonging.

This conversation is for parents and educators navigating multilingual childhood, and for anyone who believes language is more than words — it’s home.
