You get home from work, already tired. You still have to prepare dinner, give the kids a bath and then it's already bedtime before you know it. Will it go smoothly or will there be protests? It's the routine for many parents, and Netflix has decided to do what it can to help out with a podcast dedicated to children.

The streaming giant is getting in on the podcast trend with Bedtime Stories With Netflix Jr, a series of podcasts to help little ones fall asleep. Eight episodes are already available on different streaming platforms such as Spotify, Apple Podcasts and Google Podcasts.
