73) From Birth to Back-to-School: A Year of Expat Parenting Wins and Lessons

🎉 Happy 1-Year Anniversary to Dam Parenting! 🎉

What started as a shared need for clarity amidst the "beautiful chaos" of the Netherlands has grown into a trusted resource for international families. In this special episode, Eva and Maren sit down with Gemma from MamaSocial to look back on the journey of building a village from scratch. We revisit the milestones that defined our first year—from navigating kraamzorg and Dutch schools to breaking the stigma around maternal mental health and ADHD.

This episode is a warm, honest, and direct love letter to the power of showing up for one another. Whether you’ve been with us since our first MamaSocial brunch or you’re just discovering us now, thank you for being part of this journey. We’re reflecting on our most impactful episodes, the lessons we’ve learned as hosts, and the exciting future of supporting parents building a life in the Netherlands. You aren't alone—and we’re just getting started.
