About this listen

Welcome to Little Ones and Messy Buns podcast. We are a group of sorority sisters, turned moms who have been by each other's sides through it all. In 2009, we opened our bids and found each other. Fast forward 15 years and 15 babies later, we have gone from bids to kids. This podcast is a way for us to spend time together, share stories with other moms and remember we aren't alone in this season of life.

  • Differences Between Raising Kids in Australia and the USA
    Sep 29 2025

    Ever wonder what it would be like to raise kids in a different country? Today we are chatting with one of our sorority sisters, Leslie, who moved to Australia to study abroad and never looked back! Tune in to hear Leslie's home birth story and differences between maternity leave and postnatal support. (Can you imagine what it would be like to have a mom-support group handed to you post birth?!) We also chat about the differences in childcare between Australia and the US, cultural differences raising kids in different countries, tips for surviving that long flight back home and how to foster a relationship between your kids and family members who don't live close. This is such an interesting conversation - you won't want to miss it!
