About the Mission
From My Family
to Yours 🌸
Hola Mamita, I’m Laila. I grew up in Guadalajara, Mexico, where Spanish was everywhere. But when I moved to the U.S., suddenly it was all on me — and with my first two daughters, I slipped too much into English. The guilt was crushing.
It wasn’t until my twins were born that I finally discovered the truth: raising bilingual kids doesn’t take perfection. It takes consistency, cariño, and a little bit of support.
That’s why I created Baby and Me Spanish — to give you what I wished I had back then. A place where you feel supported, not judged. A place where Spanish flows into the little moments of life. A place where you’re never doing it alone and the resources you need to make it through this amazing journey.

Frequently Asked Question
🌸 FAQ – Baby and Me Spanish
When should I start teaching my baby Spanish?
The sooner, the better! Research shows that babies begin recognizing sounds in the womb. By starting during pregnancy or the first two years of life, Spanish will feel like a native language—not just something they “study” later. Don’t worry if your bebé is already born—there’s still time to give them the gift of bilingualism.
Will learning two languages at once confuse my child?
No, Mamita. Bilingual babies are not confused—they’re simply learning to navigate two systems. Sometimes they may mix languages (this is called code-switching), but it’s a natural and normal part of becoming bilingual. Even adults who speak two languages do this!
Does bilingualism cause speech delays?
This is one of the biggest myths. While bilingual children might have a smaller vocabulary in each individual language at first, their total vocabulary across both languages is equal to or greater than monolingual children. They reach speech milestones in the normal range. If there’s a true delay, it’s not because of bilingualism.
Do I need to speak perfect Spanish to raise a bilingual child?
Not at all! Many parents in our community start with little or no Spanish. That’s why Baby and Me Spanish was created—to give you the words, songs, and support you need to learn right alongside your bebé. The key is consistency, not perfection.
Is it too late to start if my child is already a toddler?
It’s never too late. Younger children absorb accents more naturally, but toddlers (and even older kids) still benefit enormously from bilingual exposure. Research shows older learners may even grasp vocabulary and academic skills faster at the start.
Do I have to follow the “one parent, one language” rule?
No. Some families choose that, but it’s not the only way. What matters most is that your child has meaningful exposure to Spanish. Whether both parents speak Spanish, mix languages, or learn together—it all works.
What are the long-term benefits of raising a bilingual child?
So many, Mamita. Studies show bilingual children are better at focusing, problem-solving, and being creative. As adults, bilinguals enjoy:
▪️More career opportunities in international companies.
▪️Higher salaries (bilingual professionals often earn more).
▪️Stronger cognitive skills, even delaying dementia by several years.
▪️The priceless gift of connecting with more people, cultures, and opportunities worldwide.
What if I only speak English—can my child still be bilingual?
Yes! With the right tools and support, you can expose your child to Spanish even if you don’t speak it fluently. That’s why Baby and Me Spanish provides resources (songs, stories, simple phrases) designed for busy parents who are learning too. You’re not doing this alone—you have a comunidad.
Will my child lose our home language if I focus on Spanish?
Not if you keep supporting it! In fact, children who have a strong foundation in their first language often learn a second language more easily. Speaking Spanish at home won’t take away from English; it adds to your child’s world.
Why start so early?
Because babies’ brains are wired for languages in the first years of life. Think of it like planting seeds in the most fertile soil—the earlier you start, the stronger the roots. And the best part? Spanish becomes part of their identity, not just a subject at school.
