Katrina Garzon ,

The best resource for first time pregnant mamas!

I discovered this podcast soon after it launched as another podcast I listen to, one of the hosts is friends with Laila, mentioned this podcast. I am SO glad I stumbled upon Learning to Mom. Laila is open, honest, covers so many ways of how and where your baby could be born, how to prep, things to expect, postpartum, and so much more!! Also, her weekly newsletter is packed full of helpful information. Thank you Laila for all you do! I’ve had my husband listen to some episodes along with me and he has really appreciated it and learns a ton as well!

Good podcast but be careful

Really good podcast
But was surprised she mentioned recommendations about not getting vaccines or not taking prenatal vitamins. Some dangerous ideas.

Great podcast for first time moms

Laila is a wonderful host! I am a FTM and I am SO glad I found this podcast. I have listened to all the episodes and am caught up, however I wish I wasn’t cause I can’t get enough!! There are many things I didn’t know that either she explains through her own experience or has an expert on to share their knowledge. Laila is truly our mom friend and I am so thankful for this podcast and connecting with her on Instagram. 🫶🏼🤍
