What if your biggest obstacle to raising a bilingual child wasn’t about vocabulary drills or not enough Spanish books, but something deeper...inside you?

Timestamps & Highlights


  • 03:28 – How our fears and inherited beliefs (not our kids) often derail bilingual goals.


  • 10:22 – Why milestone comparisons can be unhelpful and how to track progress the right way


  • 13:30 – Why Spanish exposure needs a plan


  • 24:14 – Why lack of langauge connection is preventing progress.



  • Janny Perez is a passionate advocate for raising bilingual children and preserving Latino heritage.

  • She is the voice behind "The Latina Mom Legacy" podcast and the bilingual parenting educator behind Confident Bilingual Parenting .

  • She inspires parents with her own journey, moving beyond simply reading or singing to her child in Spanish. Janny knows that true bilingualism requires more than casual exposure, it demands intention, planning, and consistent strategies.

  • Through her story, Janny empowers families to overcome self-doubt and create new traditions grounded in mindful language learning, helping children thrive in both Spanish and their Latino culture.



  • Quick Bilingual Parenting Takeaways:

  • Mindset matters: Our doubts and fears often have a bigger impact than our “mistakes.”

  • Consistent, intentional exposure is key—2–4 hours daily, not all at once.

  • Discover and use your child's preferred learning style for joyful, effective bilingual learning.

    Making Spanish central to positive, joyful, and family-based experiences creates lifelong motivation.
