Five Essential Tips for Work-at-Home Moms
Working from home with toddlers around can be challenging. Here are five tips to help you navigate your day successfully.
1. Plan Weekly, Not Daily
One key lesson I've learned as a parent is that daily plans often don't pan out. Unpredictable events, like a clingy toddler or a sleepless night, can easily derail a day's schedule. Instead of planning each day meticulously, start planning for the week. This allows you to accommodate unexpected disruptions while still achieving your goals. Some tasks, such as managing emails, still need to be done daily, but a weekly plan offers flexibility.
2. Set Aside Child-Only Time
Every morning, I dedicate a few hours to my son. We tackle errands together, which lets him enjoy time outside and often results in him being more tired, fed, and ready for a nap when we return home. This nap time becomes my opportunity to focus on work. Even when deadlines loom, prioritizing your child’s needs first can lead to more productive work periods once they’re settled.
3. Tackle Chores Immediately
Avoid letting household chores accumulate. Address small tasks as you move through your day. For instance, if you see toys scattered in a room, take a moment to put them away. If you have some downtime, prep ingredients for dinner. This approach saves time and prevents chores from piling up.
4. Plan Your Meals
I usually plan our weekly menu on grocery shopping day, despite not enjoying the task. Without a menu, mealtime decisions become overwhelming. Planning ahead simplifies daily life and frees up valuable time.
5. Prioritize Self-Care
If you’re not well, everything suffers. Taking care of your health is crucial for maintaining order at home. I make sure to take vitamins daily and aim to exercise at least three times a week. Even simple pleasures, like enjoying a hot cup of coffee, can be rejuvenating.
By integrating these strategies, you can better balance the demands of work and family while maintaining your well-being.
