Why we exist
Bridging the gap for expat families.
In the Netherlands, thousands of expat families are raising children far from home. They're looking for trusted information, emotional support, and a sense of belonging.
We saw that gap and decided to bridge it. By combining early childhood education, creative learning, and digital expertise, we've built a platform that makes international parenting easier, friendlier, and more connected.
We collaborate with local educators, coaches, and family specialists to provide content, events, and services that help families feel at home, wherever they are.
Our story
Laughing right through the storm.
Parenting in a new country can be messy, confusing, and sometimes downright exhausting. New routines, endless advice, and that feeling that everyone else has it all figured out… we've been there.
We created Giggly Cloud to make parenting abroad a little lighter, more connected, and a lot more joyful. This is your space to pause, get support, share experiences, and find tools that actually help — workshops, resources, and conversations that turn everyday chaos into growth and connection.
Because every parent deserves to feel supported, empowered, and calm — no matter where in the world they are.
The team
Two co-founders,
one tiny cloud.
An educator and a product builder — both expat moms, both convinced parenting goes better together.
Alexandra
Co-founder · Early Childhood Educator · Family Childcare Professional
After nearly a decade as a preschool teacher, leading peer counseling programs, and designing creative workshops, I saw how isolating parenthood can feel — especially for expat families. Now, based in the Netherlands, I support families with hands-on childcare and practical, structured guidance using an agile parenting approach.
At Giggly Cloud, I turn everyday mayhem into moments of laughter and learning. Through honest stories, clever tips, and a sprinkle of humor, I help families find joy in the ordinary and grace in the chaos.
Sofia
Co-founder · Product Manager Edu · Expat mother
With a background in digital strategy, I've spent years building global content systems that connect people, stories, and technology. Becoming a parent opened a new world — full of dragons, dinos, glitter, princesses, and giggles — but also exhaustion and constant juggling.
Parenting across cultures can feel like leading a small startup in chaos mode. At Giggly Cloud, I bring my experience in agile coaching and digital storytelling to build systems that work — not just for projects, but for small and big people. Small, meaningful improvements that add up to big change.
Come say hoi.
