60 August 2019 Time Out UAE Kids

Mama’s

the word

Thought YouTube was just for the kids? Two UAE mums

use a talk show to bring parents into the picture

TWO MUMS, NINA Aeckerle-Ekambi from

Germany and Romina Arougueti from

Argentina, both pregnant for the Àrst time in

Dubai in 2017, found that they were soaking

up so much knowledge about pregnancy and

birth and motherhood that they wondered

what else they could do with it all. At the

same time, they were always looking for

more answers and support. Arougueti was

already following a number of Facebook

groups at that stage while Aeckerle-Ekambi

was more of a YouTube person so together

they decided to set up their own social media

channel Think Like Mama to champion other

parents and their personal stories. The two

entrepreneurs describe their platform as

a growing library of parenting experiences
