Let’s be real, it’s hard to keep your house clean and tidy when you have kids. It’s even harder to do so if you’re out of the house from 9 to 5, Monday through Friday. It means you have limited time at home to catch up with chores and quite frankly, who wants to spend their evenings and weekends cleaning, tidying and organizing. You need a weekly cleaning routine! Listen mamas, the first thing to we want to make clear is that keeping a cleaning routine IS NOT about having a perfectly clean house all the time. It’s not realistic to be on top of every single room of the house, but what is manageable is creating a regular easy-to-manage schedule that works for you and can become second-nature in your daily routine. So how do you do that? Start by figuring out a weekly cleaning schedule that makes sense…

So you’ve decided to get organized for the new year – Congratulations! This is the first step in the creation of a life for you and your family that has more order and clarity and less chaos and stress. You have many things to look forward to: knowing where something is when you need it, feelings of peace and calm when you enter your home, and you might even benefit financially from the fewer things you’ll likely be buying. In fact, studies show that the choice you’ve made might even improve your mental health, help you eat better, and increase your productivity.
