I noticed in my daily Japanese there are many opportunities where I want to
express the concept of "in a little while". For example:

> Let's go home in a little while.

Typically I would say this using the following Japanese:

> もう少しで帰ろうね。

I think this is somewhat natural (if I am wrong please let me know), but I am
looking for other similar phrases that are also natural and appropriate for
everyday spoken conversation.

How are these?

> もう少ししたら帰ろうね。
>
> もう少し経ったら帰ろうね。

I think I can replace 少し in the above expressions with ちょっと, but I am looking
for alternate ways to express a similar idea.

Alternate expressions for "a little while"
All the phrases you have listed are natural and you can surely replace
「[少]{すこ}し」 by 「ちょっと」, too, in your examples.

We may have a couple of more, but that will be about it.

もうすぐ

もうすぐしたら

[間]{ま}もなく

（もう）間もなくしたら

（もう）しばらくしたら

Note: 「間もなく」 would sound slightly less conversational than the other options.
