WAHM (Work-at-Home-Mom) Tips

#12 When you work in an office, going home is the signal that your work day is over. But if you are already home, work can easily stretch into the night and cause friction in family life. So when you work from home, set your work hours in advance. This gives your family an idea of when you are available and when you are not.
Setting working hours in advance can be as simple as making a mental plan at the beginning of each day or as complex as filling out a monthly schedule. But the key is to be realistic and factor in distractions and other tasks that will take time away from work. And sometimes you may have to work later than expected. It happens to everyone. But if your family knows your schedule it will seem more like an exception than the rule.

Daily Stay at Home Mom schedule

Some things to remember when planning a daily Stay at Home Mom schedule:

1. Be flexible.
2. Don’t over schedule.
3. Schedule time for yourself.
4. Work within your and your child's personality.
5. Talk about your schedule with your significant other.
6. If you aren’t a morning person – don’t force it.
7. Establish routines: a morning routine, bedtime routine, dinner routine, etc.
8. Make sure your priorities are reflected within your daily schedule. Make sure to schedule quality time with God(if that's your thing), your husband, and children on a daily basis.
9. If all else fails – try, try, again. Don’t be afraid tweak your schedule throughout the day/week to come up with a permanent schedule that works with you and your family.

Developing a daily schedule can truly help to turn a life of chaos into a more productive – fulfilling – life!
