Welcome to HouseHackMom, your go-to place for real talk about mom life. I’m so glad you found us!
Being a mom is tough. Some days you feel like you’re crushing it. Other days? Well, the laundry pile looks like Mount Everest, and dinner might be cereal again. I get it. I’ve been there too.
That’s why I started this space. After years of trying to balance everything – kids, house, work, and somehow keeping my sanity, I realized we all need a friend who gets it. Someone who shares the real stuff that works, not just pretty Pinterest posts.
Here, you’ll find practical tips that actually work in real life. No judgment. No pressure to be perfect. Just honest help from one mom to another.
Who Are We?
We’re moms just like you. Real moms with messy houses, cranky toddlers, and way too much on our plates.
I’m the voice behind HouseHackMom, and I’ve walked in your shoes. I’ve been the working mom rushing home to cook dinner while answering emails.
I’ve been the stay-at-home mom, wondering if I’d ever have an adult conversation again. I’ve scrubbed mystery stains at 2 AM and googled “how to get rid of kitchen gnats” more times than I care to admit.
My story started when my second child was born. Suddenly, my old systems fell apart. The house was in chaos. I felt lost and tired.
That’s when I started testing different ways – from cleaning schedules that actually work to finding calm when my toddler had their third meltdown before 9 AM.
What We Offer?
We focus on the stuff that actually matters in your daily life.
Home Management Made Simple: Learn how to clean terrazzo floors the right way, master twice-weekly cleaning routines, and tackle post-construction cleanup in three easy steps. No fancy equipment needed – just methods that work.
Parenting Without Burnout: Find ways to be calmer with your kids, create schedules that work with toddlers, and build routines that don’t fall apart when life gets crazy.
Mom Life Balance: Are you thinking about becoming a stay-at-home mom or juggling work and family? We share honest advice about finding what works for your family.
Our Philosophy
Keep It Real. Keep It Simple. Keep Going.
We believe motherhood doesn’t come with a manual, but it does come with a community. Your house doesn’t need to look like a magazine. Your kids don’t need to be angels every day. We share what really works, including the failures and funny disasters.
Small steps count. Maybe you can’t clean your whole house today, but you can tackle one room. Maybe you lost your cool this morning, but you can try again this afternoon. Progress beats perfection every time.
We’re not here to judge your choices or make you feel bad about your struggles. We’re here to share ideas, support each other, and celebrate the small wins.
Community and Collaboration
HouseHackMom isn’t just a website – it’s a gathering place for moms who want to support each other.
Our community includes working moms who share quick dinner solutions, stay-at-home moms who’ve mastered toddler activities, and everyone in between. We learn from each other’s experiences and celebrate each other’s wins.
When Sarah from Ohio shares her method for staying calm during tantrums, moms across the country try it and report back. When Lisa finds a cleaning hack that actually saves time, we all benefit from her test.
Future Vision
HouseHackMom is growing because you’re growing. As our community gets bigger, we’re adding more resources to meet your needs.
Coming soon: video tutorials for tricky cleaning situations, printable schedules you can change to fit your family, and monthly challenges that build better habits without making your life harder.
We’re also working on resources for different stages of motherhood – if you’re expecting your first baby, managing multiple toddlers, or helping school-age kids with homework.
Most importantly, we’re going to stay real and stay helpful. As trends come and go, we’ll keep focusing on what actually works in your everyday life. Motherhood is hard enough without trying to figure it all out alone. Welcome to your community.
