Have you hired a cleaning lady to help clean your home?

Most mom’s days start before the kids wake up, and end well after they are in bed. Cleaning is all too often crammed in whenever there is a few spare minutes here and there or only when company is coming over. Here are four guilt free reasons why you should hire a cleaning service.

Reason #1:

Being a mom is a million jobs—it is not just one job! Mamas are typically the CFO for your family

* Laundry

* Meals

* Personal Shopper

* Tutor

* Chauffeur

* Therapist

Among many others not mentioned. That list does not need to include a cleaning lady. Your business is running a happy household and it is completely okay to hire a cleaning lady.

Reason #2:

Time management is crucial in parenting. Deciding when chores will be done around the house has to remain flexible. A morning that you marked for cleaning can get disrupted by a sick kid or a flat tire.

When you hire a cleaning service, you no longer have to worry about being diverted for the emergencies that pop up. Your house will still get cleaned, and cleaned quickly and professionally, without any additional effort on your part.

Reason #3:

When you have kids at home it is a challenge to find time to clean without them being in the way. When you have a sitter or some free time you would rather do something fun or productive besides cleaning your house, right? Lots of mamas hire a cleaning service to enable them to spend their time in the way that feels best for them and for their families.

Reason #4:

Being present and in the moment with your family. When you’re playing a game, at their football games, at their dance recitals, or when they just want to spend time with you, you’re totally there. You also want to make time for your spouse to keep your marriage healthy and happy. After all, you probably didn't marry that person so they would help you clean the house!

There should be absolutely no guilt when a mom hires a cleaning service. It offers you the ability to have more of your time devoted directly to your family instead of cleaning. If you are in need of a cleaning lady to help make your home a peaceful one feel free to contact OCD clean by Jessica through call/text 816-509-8115 or you can message me on FB to schedule your free in home consultation.

Goldie's Birth

One of my dreams has always been to have a peaceful, beautiful home birth where I can give birth in the water and immediately snuggle up with baby in my bed! That was the plan for three years as we tried and tried to get pregnant with Goldie. Finally in January of 2021 we found out that we were pregnant again and I immediately texted my midwife with the news. The 10 months of pregnancy flew by and soon it was my due date, september 25th! We had everything set up and I was getting so excited as I would be the first of my sisters to give birth to one of the fab four. Nothing happened for five full days after my due date. Finally on the morning of the 29th I started contracting at 7:30 AM. I was so excited because with Fred, I started contractions at 7 and had a baby by 2:30! I just knew that that would be the case here to

So You Are Having Twins?

Conceiving and growing two (or more!) babies at once rather than one is a pretty big deal. There are two tiny humans inside of you, which means your body is responsible for the development and health of double what a singleton Mom is responsible for. Is this a reason to panic?
