    Tienerma vertel: “Ek was 15… en swanger” / Teen Mom Shares: “I Was 15… and Pregnant”

    2026/05/13 | 24 mins.
    In 2019 het Junandi Meyer ’n brief aan die tydskrif Baba & Kleuter geskryf. Sy was net 15 jaar oud… en swanger.
    “Ek is dalk jonger as die ander ma’s,” het sy geskryf, “maar my opgewondenheid is net so groot soos hulle s’n. Ek verdien ook om ’n ma te wees, ten spyte van my fout.”
    Sewe jaar later het Daniëlla vir Junandi opgespoor om uit te vind wat ná daardie lewensveranderende oomblik gebeur het.
    Hierdie is haar storie.

    In 2019, Junandi Meyer wrote a letter to Baba & Kleuter magazine. She was only 15 years old… and pregnant.
    “I may be younger than the other moms,” she wrote, “but my excitement is just as big as theirs. I also deserve to be a mom, despite my mistake.”
    Seven years later, Daniëlla tracked Junandi down to find out what happened after that life-changing moment.
    This is her story.

    Wat 'n chiropraktisyn wil hê elke ma moet weet/ What a chiropractor wants every mom to know

    2026/04/29 | 27 mins.
    Swangerskap is veeleisend op 'n vrou se liggaam - geen wonder dat dit soms met allerlei skete en kwale gepaardgaan nie!
    In dié episode gesels Daniëlla met chiropraktisyn dr. Michelle Beech Cloete oor hoe 'n mamma reeds voor geboorte is kan omsien na haar spier- en skeletale stelsel - veral die ruggraat. Ons praat ook oor hoe klein babatjies met koliek en ander skete gehelp kan word, en wanneer dit nodig is om anders kenners te sien.

    Pregnancy places significant demands on a woman’s body—no wonder it’s often accompanied by various aches and pains. In this episode, Daniëlla speaks to chiropractor Dr Michelle Beech Cloete about how moms can take care of their musculoskeletal system—even before baby is born—especially the spine. She also explains how small babies with colic and other discomforts can be helped, and when it’s necessary to consult other specialists.

    Die hart van ’n plaasvrou en -ma/ The heart of a farm woman and mom

    2026/04/01 | 35 mins.
    Om ’n plaasvrou te wees, verg krag. Om boonop ’n ma én plaasvrou te wees, verg 'n SUPERKRAG! Gelukkig is Suid-Afrika vol van sulke vroue: ma’s wat elke dag saam met hul mans boer, kinders grootmaak en help om ’n plaas aan die gang te hou.

    In dié episode gesels Daniëlla met Deidré Viljoen van Plaas & Vrou oor die unieke uitdagings van boerdery en die moeilike besluite wat ma’s op plase soms moet neem.

    To be a farm woman requires strength. To be both a mom and a farm woman requires a SUPERPOWER! Fortunately, South Africa is full of such women: moms who farm alongside their husbands every day, raise their children, and help keep a farm running.

    In this episode, Daniëlla chats to Deidré Viljoen from Plaas & Vrou about the unique challenges of farm life and the difficult decisions moms on farms sometimes have to make.

    Wat elke ouer van AI en Chatbots moet weet/ What every parent should know about AI and chatbots

    2026/03/18 | 34 mins.
    Kinders en tieners spandeer al hoe meer tyd met AI (Kunsmatige Intelligensie) apps wat met hulle terugpraat – van "huiswerk helpers" TOT chatbots wat soos “vriende” kan voel.
    Hierdie skuif van sosiale media na persoonlike interaksie met 'n AI bied geleenthede, maar ook nuwe risiko’s: kinders kan maklik persoonlike inligting deel, grense kan vervaag en AI kan selfs onvanpaste of skadelike advies gee.
    In hierdie episode gesels Daniëlla met digitale ouerskap- en kuberveiligheidskenner Rianette Leibowitz van Cyber Wellness with Rianette oor hoe hierdie tegnologie werk en wat ouers móét weet.
    Ons praat oor hoe om kinders te help om hierdie nuwe digitale wêreld te navigeer – want as jy nie verstaan wat aanlyn gebeur nie, kan jy hulle nie beskerm nie.

    Children and teens are spending more and more time on AI (Artificial Intelligence) apps that talk back to them – from “homework helpers” to chatbots that can feel like “friends.” This shift from simply using social media to having personal interactions with AI brings opportunities, but also risks: kids can easily share personal information, boundaries can blur, and AI can even give inappropriate or harmful advice. In this episode, Daniëlla speaks to digital parenting and cybersecurity expert Rianette Leibowitz from Cyber Wellness with Rianette about how this technology works and what parents need to know. We discuss how to help children navigate this new digital world – because if you don’t understand what’s happening online, you can’t protect them.

About 'n Ma & 'n Mikrofoon
'n Ma & 'n Mikrofoon is 'n podcast wat die wêreld van die moderne Afrikaanse ma weerspieel. Aanbieder Daniëlla van Heerden (self 'n ma van twee) voer openhartige gesprekke met kenners en spesiale gaste. Die fokus is nie net babas en kinders se gesondheid nie, maar ook ma's se emosionele welstand. Hier sal jy saam lag vir daardie oomblikke wat net 'n ma kan verstaan - soos dat vyf minute alleen in die motor soms kan tel as "me-time"! Meer ernstige onderwerpe soos postpartum depressie, tantrums en boelies word egter ook openlik bespreek. Alledaagse én bekende ma's kom kuier ook in die ateljee om hulle stories te deel. 'n Ma & 'n Mikrofoon sal jou inspireer, bemagtig en herinner dat jy (ten spyte daarvan dat jy soms twyfel) altyd die beste ma is vir jou kind. 'n Ma & 'n Mikrofoon is a podcast that reflects the world of the modern Afrikaans mom. Host Daniëlla van Heerden (herself a mom of two) engages in candid conversations with experts and special guests. The focus extends beyond the health of babies and children to encompass the emotional well-being of mothers. Here, you'll share laughter for those moments only another mom can understand – like how five minutes alone in the car can sometimes count as "me-time"! However, more serious topics such as postpartum depression, tantrums, and bullying are also openly discussed. Everyday and well-known moms alike drop by the studio to share their stories. 'n Ma & 'n Mikrofoon will inspire, empower, and remind you that, despite moments of doubt, you are always the best mom for your child.
