I work full time can't thank you enough for this vid
My kids do their own laundry since age 8. They know how to use a computer, phone, iPad, then they also learned to operate a washer and dryer😊.
So good!!!
My kids do their own laundry too. Started in middle school. 👍
I so agree with sharing the chores out fairly amongst your children. Being the oldest should not be a lifelong punishment
Yes! Thank you!
The first thing you gotta do is start decluttering, IMO. Once you start doing that, you will notice how easier your home is to clean.
So much easier to keep clean! ☺
Love this. I do 15-30 minutes each night, focussing on keeping on top of the laundry and kitchen. Waking up to a clean home is so calming.
I agree - I love coming down to no messes too!
I clean full time for a living, so have to really motivate myself when I get home 😂
Yes!!! I can imagine!! :)
I hear you!! Me too! I clean 2 houses 4 days a week, so I have to push myself with our home lol. Some days are easier than others 😅
For sure the mini tasks when a bit of down time is key to a tidy house. Do not leave a room without taking something with you to put away. I lessened my flat surfaces throughout the home to one per room. Eliminate coffee tables, side tables etc. When there is no place to lay things, you put them away! Thank you for your reasonable approach to home life.
Thank you so much!! 😊 And it's funny - I also got rid of my coffee table because it was so cluttered!
When I walk out of one room, I pick a few things up that belong to another room and put them away. It helps cut down on the weekly clutter.
Love it!
I've trained my brain to tidy up whenever I'm on the phone chatting with my friends. I don't out on what's going on with them but I also end up with something to show for my time too and I actually enjoyed that time cleaning because I was more focused on my friends and less on the chore.
Yes! It makes the chore more fun and fly by!
I work 3 days a week. I dont get much done on those days. My priorities are cat box, kitchen, laundry, a quick trip over the bathroom and take out trash. Im weird, i dont like dusting. Its my least favorite chore. So my off days i do a full house cleaning. One thing that helps me is making the bed every day. Clutter is my enemy! feel more in control if my house is completely clutter free. Also, dont go to bed with dishes in the sink.
I did a Swedish death cleaning is 2023. I really feel it helped me on so many levels. My shopping habits have changed. I also built a pantry. It really helps me not overspend. I didnt realize how many duplicates of beauty products and papet products. I have also stopped buying single use items. I have 2 cloth mop heads. I have on multipurpose cleaner like you. I have cleaning rags made from old towels. And no more water bottles!
Great video! I should get a bigger trashcan!
Love all of this!!! I also don't like dusting - ever since I was a kid, ha!
Awesome video idea! I used to dread my days off because I liked working more than housework. Since being out of the workplace, I've learned that there are certain basics that should be done daily (like the dishes, spot cleaning, and putting things away) and that tasks can be spread out over several days for areas you want to clean weekly like the bathroom instead of taking a huge chunk of time to clean all at once.
For sure! So much easier to spread things out over days in my opinion! 😊
You can get a lot done in just a few minutes and every step forward is progress. I usually do a bit of washing up while I'm waiting for the kettle, for the pancake to cook before I have to turn it over. or when the microwave is on. even if I don't get everything done, it's better to get a little done than nothing.
Every step forward is progress - so true!
3-4 yrs old is the perfect age to start giving them chores. Any 4 yr old can set the table and empty trash from bedrooms & bathrooms. An 8 yr old can clean a bathroom, fold laundry and wash dishes, and so on.
Furthermore, I'd never pay a child for doing household chores - household chores are part of living in the home and being a family.
Thank you for sharing!
Agreed! Spot on! Delegating is the key.
I homeschooled 3 kids K-12, which is a full time job because you can't clean while teaching reading, math, science, history, on weekdays and driving them them around to various activities several times a week.
I trained mine from ages 4-5 along side me while I cleaned teaching them how to do it. This is not play and bonding time-do that after chores. Then at 6 they were able to clean independently. We had a cleaning schedule for after school that took into account activities. It usually meant an hour a day weekly chores (vacuuming, cleaning bathrooms, etc.) on non-activity days. I had a reusable task checklist for big jobs with many smaller tasks like cleaning bathrooms: mirrors, counters, tub, toilet, floor. It was in a plastic page protector and with a wet erase marker to mark off as they went along, that way they knew what my expectations were.
Then we did daily stuff every day like unloading the dishwasher (put your most frequently used dishes in the LOWER cabinets so your young children can unload them at very young ages.) Buy a canister or stick vacuum and a spray mop or steamers so they can handle them at a young ages.
Everyone in my house did their own laundry (bedding and clothing) starting at age 8, a very typical thing in the homeschool community of GenX parents. We bought a step stool so they could reach the bottom of the top loading washer. They each had an assigned laundry day. They also used that step stool to clean bathroom mirrors and dust higher shelves.
We divided daily and weekly household chores between the kids and me (husband worked from home and did all outside chores) and rotated the names every month. Don't let your kids only do chores they prefer-that's not the real world. A daily tidy after dinner is a huge help-put your stuff back where it goes regularly and it doesn't pile up every often.
And we had consequences ready to go in keeping with our parenting philosophy as enforcement. You get what you inspect and enforce. Consistency is a parental responsibility, cooperation in contributing to the household is everyone's responsibility.
Then teach them to cook meals by age 13. They can contribute cooking a meal once a week as teens.
Amazing, than you so much for sharing all of this!
So very helpful, thank you for taking the time to share all of this!
Thanks for all these tips.
I used to actually cry 😢 on the weekends.
Aww I hear you - it's so stressful sometimes!
My new year resolution is to implement tiny habits.
One of them is: cleaning kitchen when putting on kettle to boil, second is to tidy my office for 30s every time I get there.
It is unbelievable how much you can tidy in such a short time.
And also when I start for 30s i often naturalny do it for a little longer so in January my kitchen and my office became more tidy indeed
Love that! And I agree - I am always so shocked by how little time things take me when I actually time it!
Wow, 30 seconds. Great idea!
Since i moved into my own apartment and i now live alone i choose to do an entire home clean on the Friday i get paid. This usually onky takes me 40 minutes because my apartment is 750 sqft and during the week i don't clean i make sure to do what i call spot cleaning where i clean something that gets dirty right away like dishes and the toilet. Another thing that can cause clutter is mail if you don't open it and throw it out right away. I make sure to do that. My apartment is very clean and clutter free during the work week.
That is awesome!
Black garbage bags are KEY!
For sure! So much better 😊
I love your tips and the energy that comes across! - I've actually gone the opposite way regarding kitchen bins: very small ones with no lid to make us empty it every day. There's thee main reasons for this: 1. Bin lids are a pain to clean, and they will get gross very quickly. Then you also have small kids touching and licking it. Yuck! A small office bin is really easy to rinse out in the sink. 2. It's so much easier to throw things in a rectangular bin without a lid, especially scraping things off of trays and chopping boards. 3. I want to avoid the smell, and attracting pests. (I realise that's the purpose of the lid, but see points 1& 2.) - But yes, it doesn't look good, so I keep thinking how I could make it more attractive. I could possibly put them in a crate of some sort that is taller than the bins. I crate with wheels to make it easier to clean around! Yes, I think I might have just found the solution! 🙂
I like that idea! Anything that makes it easier to you is what I'd go with! Thank you so much for sharing 😊
I used to clean for 45 minutes, then 15 minutes to phone a friend, have a coffee or tea, etc . Worked well, but getting older and not so spry any more
Thank you for this video!! I feel like so many cleaning videos cater to people who do not work full time😳 Both my husband and I work full time and have 2 young kids and cannot afford to pay for a maid or cleaning service so everything has to be done by us alone
I know how hard it is with young kids - it feels like the home care never ends! Thank you for sharing! 😊
Love my large trash can and recycling can. Emptying once a week is way more doable!
For sure! :)
Good deal; everyone should help out when they can. I started vacuuming when I was around three-years old, because I have loved vacuums since I was an infant. I like your steam cleaner. I have one, but it's not as nice as yours.
Thank you for sharing, love that you were vacuuming at 3!
Sure thing! I fix them now, lol. I rebuild Kirby vacuums, but I repair other brands, too.@@tarynmaria_
you have my respect lady. thank you for sharing this video!
You are so welcome!
I know it's pricey, but the Roborock S7 Ultra mop/vac robot changed my freaking life.
Cool, thank you for sharing that!
Yup! Me too!!!
Ive had a Roborock for at least 4 years (on my second one now) and it saved my self esteem. I just could not sweep well enough often enough to keep up with the huge messes my kids made eating. But the Roborock goes every night and as often as needed throughout the day. I love having clean floors every day.
Very love your tips thank you for sharing these ❤❤❤
You are so welcome!!
I have some thoughts:
1. "If you've got boys and girls equally teach them to do these chores..." PREACH!!! That's how you teach them to be good humans. ❤
2. Did you tape your phone to the WALL???? How did you do this?? 😍
3. Don't mess with my dead time, I use that time to shut off my brain and "meditate" LOL!! 🤣 But seriously, sometimes you just need literal "dead time" to breathe.
Thank you for your thoughts!! And agree - definitely need some time to just breathe! :)
Thank you for the tips. I have so much dog hair I get overwhelmed.
You are so welcome!
Great video ❤
Thank you Diana!!
Amazing
Thank you!!
Great video 😊 a new subscriber🎉
Thank you so much! And welcome, I am so glad you are here!! ☺
I love my Roomba!!
Me too!!!
Thank you for saying both girls and boys should do chores equally, and the same chores, not the regressive sex-segregated ones. Yes!
I have a shark steamer and I love it for cleaning my floors. What’s the best way to wash/clean the reusable pads?
Honestly I just toss mine into the washing machine!
Everyone who lives in a home should take care of their home regardless of age and/or gender. A little cleaning each day is better than dedicating a day each weekend to clean.
Agree - waiting to do it all at once is way too much!
Lots of great ideas!
But, nooooo to decluttering mugs!!! 😁
Thank you! Do what works for you! :)
For motion efficiency, are you familiar with the Clean Team's "Speed Cleaning" book? It's brilliant. Best I've seen. Great for people with back or foot pain, too, because it's so efficient. I think you might love it.
Oh cool, I will definitely check it out - thank you so much for sharing it!!
@@tarynmaria_ You're welcome. I'd love to hear your take on it if you make a video about it. I don't think they have any vids on their methods, so maybe we'll hear and benefit from you on it.
I skipped the part about their using special cleaners. Like you, I just made my own all-purpose one. Mine is just water with a little vinegar. I also didn't buy their custom apron, or special cleaning cloths (just bar towels). Their recommended items would probably make cleaning go faster, but even without, their method still is a lot faster than I'd ever figured out on my own and from my mom's advice. For me, it was faster almost right away, and in a few months, with some practice and getting the hang of it, ridiculously faster. And especially would be with nicely decluttered surfaces like yours.
Also, thank you for your down to earth videos and info!
@@tarynmaria_ Oops, they do have videos. "Speed cleaning with Jeff Campbell, kitchen",for example. Because he carries all his tools and even a little debris bag on him, and doesn't go back and forth to the sink to clean his sponge, it saves steps and time.
The steam cleaner on wood can potentially hurt your floor
Yes! I try not to linger the steam in any one place. I've been doing it for years, so far so good!
I do pretty much with all you mention except the robot vacuum , I no longer can use it since my baby know how to play toy . We get tired sometimes to pick up all the toy every single day multiple time a day . We only en up use the normal vacuum
Yup, I remember those times of baby toys on the floor! We did the same :)
Working full time, you have to do some type of cleaning every day.
It helps so much to do that!
Do you clean counters and stovetops once a week? Or is that a deep clean and do light cleaning the other days. I feel like if we don’t clean the stovetop after cooking, it’ll be a mess on cleaning day
Hi! So I do spot clean every day - I usually give the counters a quick wipe before bed and I spot clean the stovetops after we've used them/ And then I do a deep clean weekly to get everything up :)
I work like 60+ hours a week and I think it's time for a robot vac. ❤
I think you'll love it!
I really struggle with the thought that if I can’t do all of it then I might as well not do any of it. If I can’t clean the whole bathroom then I wouldn’t clean the toilet. I like the idea of a mini-task list. If cleaning a toilet is on the list then it kinda gives me permission to clean ONLY the toilet.
Yes! I used to be the same - now I literally do one small task and not worry about it :)
Hi you were cleaning wooden area and what kind of mop you using?please reply
Hi! Was it the steamer? If so, here is one that is similar to mine (and even better in my opinion): rstyle.me/+0Mk4qf9jSBjqV6tNaGYRsg
What steamer do you use please?
Hi! This is the one I have: amzn.to/4cK62yl
@@tarynmaria_ Thank you
I had an easier time cleaning when I was working full time.
Interesting!
I do a Power 1/2 Hour, but break it down into 5 minutes per room.
Great idea!!
If you can‘t clean your entire apartment or house in a day, your place is too big or you have way too much clutter laying around.
Working full time is the best way to keep your house always clean (nobody is there to mess). But if you stay home with kids you will be always cooking or cleaning and the house will be always messy and dirty… where there’s people there will be the messy
My husband and I work from home a lot but also we have 3 kids who are home after school so it doesn't stay clean for long :)
I would say pass on the robot vacuum. I bought one in the past and you have to guide it and watch it and empty it and the time it takes you can just sweep the floor yourself faster. Maybe hers has better features.
And didn't clean well and the wheels that turned kept moving trash around.
Thank you for sharing!
I hate the robot vacuum. It skips places and it’s just faster to do it myself.
Do what works for you! :)
I really like your hair color! How is it called?
Aww thank you! It’s actually my natural hair color!
@@tarynmaria_ beautiful 🤩 you are so blessed not to have gray hair.
This is the fly lady system
No, it’s not. She does a zone approach, which is not what this is.
Taking the garbage out only once a week only works in a country that doesn't have cockroach problems. Otherwise I recommend taking the garbage out at least every second day especially food garbage wrappers and scraps
Thanks for sharing!
I wished my MIL thought like you when she was raising my husband 💀
Oh damn, haha. That's more like a general man thing. Men just interpret messes differently.
Clean kitchen after dinner each might. Easier.
So true!
I thought vinegar can't be used on stone and wood floors?
I wouldn't use vinegar on those surfaces - I do it sometimes with diluted vinegar but just some water and soap will do the trick there!
My bu good been a year no unity
I can’t clean with bleach products or any chemicals .. so I thou to hire cleaning lady and re thinking that they may use chemical products costing for one clean about 200-300$ easily.. for each time cleaning .. went to Amazon got steamer and oh boy 200$ best spend ever & good by to stranger ladies n chemical from home win win
So agree about the chemicals! Isn't the steamer the best? I use mine so much!
@@tarynmaria_ yes for deep clean it’s god send item.. & cut the work in less than half
Stressful. Better to Hire a maid service Once per month
Amen
Family time
Take time for church on Sunday
God first place
Amen
I love your channel and your approach to chores! You make everything seem easy. And I've learned very useful tricks. You're a lifesaver, thank you!
That is amazing, thank you so much I'm so glad you are finding it useful!!
Your videos seem to be devoted to families. Could you do a few on those who don’t have someone to delegate to? That can’t have kids help with chores? That are working full-time and doing all this themselves?
No, it’s not the same thing, so it’s not a matter of just “well, take her video and do it all yourself.” Single people or families without kids are out here. We never see helpful videos for these groups. Could you do some, please?
Sure, I can definitely do that and thank you for the video request!!
@@tarynmaria_ Thanks! Every "cleaning guru" I see seems to forget about us, and it gets frustrating! I'd love to delegate some tasks to someone else. But my cat (the true owner of the house) refuses to wash dishes or mop for some reason. She just lays in the sun and sleeps all day!
I lived in a apartment for many years. And, to be honest, I didn't really care about cleaning then. It never really felt like my home, so why bother. But now I have a house! But I have a house with multiple rooms and a lot more space than the tiny apartment. I need hints on how to manage keeping it clean while still working my 40+ hour a week job and do any fun things I want to do as well.
Your cat sounds like my old dog, I used to tell him he needed to earn his keep but he never lifted a paw! :) I'll definitely make a video on this! @@DottyGale8
so much use of the word “I”. I such and such…. don’t tell me what you do, tell me how I can do it..
I'm sharing what works for me, in the hopes it will also work for you.
Working women have been keeping their homes clean for generations!! All without the modern technology we have today. Pointless video!
That’s a gross generalization. This is a very helpful video for many (regardless of gender)!
