Raising twins is like juggling, except you don’t know how to juggle, your juggling balls are on fire, and “Let it Go” is playing on repeat. As isolating as this circus may feel at times, there are some amazing resources out there specifically for twin parents. Many that can help with advice, reflection, or even just some laughs to remind you that you are not alone. Podcasts about twins are one of the very best ways to check all of these boxes. You don’t have to set aside hours to read a parenting book but instead can tune into a twin podcast just about anywhere. I have personally been known to pop in a single headphone at the playground on my less-than-mindful days and tune into something inspiring while I try to watch my twins run in opposite directions. These are the very best podcasts about twins to try out when you need a little twin-parent solidarity!
Twiniversity Podcast
Of course, our number one pick is the Twiniversity Podcast by our very own Twiniversity founder, Natalie Diaz. This podcast about twins spans pregnancy through teenage years and everything in between. Each episode is around an hour long, and she hosts fascinating guests such as obstetricians, writers, therapists, and real-life twin parents. Though the subject matter is always informative, it is delivered with humor and heart. This is truly a podcast by twin parents for twin parents, and there is something for everyone. Start listening now!

Twinning with Sisanie
Twinning with Sisanie is a window into Sisanie’s day-to-day life as a mom of young twins. It is real, raw, and super relatable. Sisanie describes this podcast as her audio diary of her life as a twin mom. She also happens to be a bona fide graduate of Twiniversity’s Expecting Twins class! Twinning with Sisanie casually covers everyday issues that arise in the twin parenting journey. Such as whether or not to split up twins in school, juggling multiple activities multiple times a week, and the less discussed things, such as getting ready to go camping with twins. Listen to Sisanie feels like you are hanging out with a friend who totally gets everything you are going through. Twinning with Sisanie officially ended on March 31, 2023, but catch her new podcast, Breakfast at Sisanie’s, which still covers being a twin mom but also talks about adding a singleton to the mix!
Dad’s Guide to Twins Podcast
There is a lot of support out there specifically tailored to twin moms, but this super special podcast about twins is from a twin dad’s perspective. Joe Rawlinson began creating resources when he was expecting twins and had trouble finding things just for dads. Now he has 300 episodes of his own podcast about twins! He covers helpful and practical topics like product recommendations, time-saving parenting hacks, language development in twins, and daycare costs. He also links research articles in his show notes for those who are interested in diving deeper into the subject matter (like my husband). Twin dads definitely need to check out this podcast!
Therapist Mom of Twins
In this podcast, psychotherapist and new mom of identical twins, Stephanie provides information, suggestions, and insight for twin parents, with a focus on mental health. She is assisted by special guests such as doctors, nutritionists, therapists, and experts in the health and wellness field. We love this podcast for its bold approach to covering topics that are considered taboo, such as mental health. This podcast is a warm and gentle reminder of how important mental and emotional health is for parents.
Raising (Noire) Twins
Business-minded parents will appreciate this podcast about twins and its emphasis on entrepreneurship while parenting. The bite-sized segments run anywhere from 10 to 45 minutes on average. They feature inspiring guests who discuss parenting and their business ventures alike. I love this podcast because the topics are modern, and the host, Ne’Chell, is business-savvy, well-traveled, and down to earth (not to mention a twin mom). Just listening to Ne’Chell makes me feel like I am hanging out with the most interesting person in the room. Twiniversity’s very own Natalie Diaz has been a guest on the Raising (Noire) Twins podcast. Listen to her episode here.
There’s a podcast for every mood and occasion! Whether you’re seeking support, parenting tips, or just a good laugh, one of our favorite podcasts about twins is sure to deliver. And even if you’re still feeling overwhelmed afterward, at least you got to enjoy a great podcast instead of another round of “Let it Go.”
Maddison Ellison is a mom to vibrant and mischievous twin toddler girls. She works as a nurse in the Denver metro area and enjoys getting outside with her twins, husband, and sheepadoodle, Rosie. Maddison is inspired by health, wellness, the magic of everyday life, and of course, coffee.
