Quick Tips

  • For "appearances": Don't feel like cleaning the whole kitchen but hate how it looks?  Try putting dishes in the sink or dishwasher and wiping down the counters.  A few dirty dishes don't make your kitchen look messy, but cluttered, sticky counters do.

 

  • Quick Clean Up: Don't have time to give the room a deep clean?  Pick toys, papers, bulky items off of the floor and have a few storage bins you can toss things in until you get to them (make sure you get to them).

 

  • Do Not: Buy more storage bins than you need.  This will lead to many messy or unused bins.  Go through what's inside the bins you have and see if it can be better used.

 

  • Relax: Your house does not have to be neat and clean all of the time, because, well...people live there!  Get on with your life.  Slot in a day once a week or once every two weeks to straighten up and get to it then.

 

"I finally feel at home in my apartment.  I’m excited to get home at the end of a busy day because I know I’ll feel at peace.  I went from feeling like a busy, chaotic and stressed mother, to an established, grown woman.”- Ms. Hoagland Working Mother and PhD Student
