The newest series spotlights local playgroups, children’s centres, baby-friendly classes, and small businesses—each one personally recommended by local mums. These aren’t just services – they are lifelines that make motherhood easier and more enjoyable. Every episode is packed with practical advice and heartwarming discussions, designed to help mums feel more confident, connected and supported in those early days.
Sarah knows firsthand how magical yet isolating new motherhood can be, and she has made it her mission to create resources that truly help. The Little Bean Podcast is like having a supportive friend in your ear – someone who understands, reassures, and brings you expert advice alongside real-life stories from fellow mums.
“I wanted to create something mums could turn to at any time—when they’re up feeding at 3am or out on a pram walk,” says Sarah. “Through honest conversations and expert guidance, my hope is that The Little Bean Podcast feels like a friend who truly understands.”
Despite its strong local roots, The Little Bean Podcast has been listened to in 97 cities across 16 countries, proving that the universal challenges and joys of new motherhood resonate far and wide.
The Little Bean Podcast is part of Memory Lane by Sarah Baldock, a broader initiative to support mums through every stage of early parenthood. Beyond the podcast, Memory Lane includes The Mom Hub – a treasure trove of articles, downloads, and parenting tips – and Moments & Milestones, a unique photography and memory experience designed to help families capture and cherish every special moment.
This holistic approach ensures that mums have not only emotional support but also beautiful, enduring keepsakes to celebrate their parenting journey.
