A whole house clean and tidy before we go to Cornwall

- In this video you can watch me clean the whole house from top to bottom before we go away to Cornwall for the week. Because there’s nothing worse than coming home to a messy house after you’ve been on holiday! I also have a ramble about parenting and growing up messy. I hope you enjoy!
It is really refreshing to see someone who is struggling and overcoming! We all know what a clean house looks like, but getting it there when you're not a perfect person is the issue. Thank you for walking us through what works for you. I know it helps me!
I just discovered you today. Very encouraging and I'm binging as I clean right now. I love your voice! It's soothing to listen to you and I actually responded to you a couple times as if we were having a conversation! You're lovely! Blessings to you and the family!
Wow! I came here for the cleaning & feel like I found a friend! I adore you!
There was no internet when I was bringing up my children. How I wish there had been! I would have found vlogs like this a godsend. Re tidying up, I suppose we all have to tidy up to some extent, but it should never come before children’s happiness. I read once “your kids won’t remember the days the house was super-tidy, but they will remember the days you took time out to play with them, take them to the park, etc”.
Exactly!
I found you about two days. The amount of joy and peace I get from your videos. I love how real you are.
When it comes to instilling good cleaning habits for children that will last throughout their life, being a role model and showing them how to accomplish things is much more important than having strict standards.
Your kids getting involved in the cleaning voluntarily is a perfect way to illustrate how your behaviors are positively influencing them. As they get older, that's when implementing chores and clean-up expectations are more important for the long term success for you all.
I'm glad for all your commentary and it helps me reflect on my childhood as well as how my parenting can/should be with regards to household maintenance.
I have just found your channel, and what a breath of fresh air its so nice to see someone showing the messy side of their personality ( I have always been the same) . My kids are grown up and left and its just me and I feel so overwhelmed sometimes that I am paralysed, No idea where to start so nothing gets done. Today I have started on my tidying journey and will be watching your videos to help keep me motivated. Thank you
Finally someone who is normal
My mom always said (after having 3 girls): “if you to think you’re going to keep everything picked up and picture perfect, then you’ll be doing it 24/7 and that’s not possible, so don’t”. She was right; I tried anyway after having 2 and just about wore myself out. Don’t sweat it - let them be children. I lo e the way you do things! ❤️
I had a few months trying this too, the picking up was constant, and I was the most miserable, irritable person to be around. Every time someone left something out of place I’d huff and get stressed. I’d much rather be a chilled and happy mum with a messy house ❤️
Don’t you worry what other people think! Your children will be all grown up in what feels like the blink of an eye, and when they look back on their childhood, their fondest memories won’t consist of how tidy the kitchen was, or if the beds were made up perfect (if at all). Their fondest memories will be the time you spent with them: playing with them, teaching them, laughing with them, listening to them. There will be so much time for catching those dust bunnies when your kiddos have grown and moved out! I love your channel. Have a great holiday and enjoy your family time! Blessings!
I absolutely love love, love, love your videos. I never knew there was a word for struggling to do any task. Executive dysfunction. I could think about wanting to take a walk around my neighbourhood, and that just doesn't happen. Cleaning, it's this huge chore that weighs on my mind. (I grew up with a single mom who didn't encourage to clean by example, or ask I clean the home on a consistent basis. (My brain never thought to clean up by taking initiative..?) We lived very messily my entire life. Sadly, I continue to live just as messy as ever..) I'm doing a lot better when I set out with a determined intention to clean the kitchen or tidying up the living room. In fact, I'm slowly cleaning the house now while trying to find your longer videos. (While TikTok's short video's has gotten so popular with people of all ages to the point other social media platforms try introducing this media format for their webpages, I don't like videos like that). I love your longer videos, and listening to you share pieces of your life. I feel like we would make good friends. While I have my dogs I treat as children, you have your actual children. I'm always supporting you!! - Mary from Smithville, Texas
I absolutely adore watching Ike help hang the laundry!
I’ve watched other cleaning channels, and your video’s are the most down to earth and real video’s I’ve seen. I very much relate to you, even down to being too short. 😂
Your voice overs are so interesting and entertaining. They are reminiscent of old timy radio shows. You have so much wisdom and a lovely, kind, reassuring voice.
PS I just watched your whole house clean a few days a go. My first. So glad you popped up. ❤
As I sit here and look at my house atm you always make me feel it’s ok. I do clean and sometimes it’s spotless I just lack motivation. Thankyou you always give me the kick I need.

I agree!!! 🙋🏽♀️ KY, USA
I’m glad you are doing voiceovers. I love your accent
You are very inspirational. It is an uphill battle to keep the house clean with kids around and trying to pay the bills. It gets easier when the kids are older, trust me.
Well done girl. Don't worry about people who put you down. You make me happy watching.🎉
I appreciate you standing up for yourself and your family. There is nothing wrong with your method at all!
I'll agree with the rest...watching you clean with the voiceover is way better than doing my own house! "I don't want to do mine, let's see what Remi is up to...."
I love listening to you speak so much relatable and my children at 20 ,19 and 17. I still have a messy house sometimes an English bulldog she sheds like 😜 i love you ❤️
You are a really lovely lady. Hope you have a great family holiday. Great cleaning videos
You are an inspiration! Please keep sharing! Thank you so much 🥰
My mother was the neatnik in our house. I was late more than once to school because I had to go back to make my bed! However, I did learn one thing from her: I always face my hanging clothes and the hangers the same way. I've done it for so long I don't even notice I'm doing it any more! BTW, I have short issues as well. I feel your pain😂. And ignore the parenting haters. As long as your kids are growing up to be kind, polite, functioning contributors to society, you're doing a good job.
Thank you for being real. You are right. We are not all wired the same way. I have so many issues about my worth because my executive functioning leaves me rather messy. You are a kind and supportive mom.
You have a lovely family and a lovely home. Lovely to see real life, thank you
I'm at the opposite end of life and I can't tell you how much I appreciate your channel. I was the same as you when I was young & raising 3 kids (in 5 years). It would have meant so much to hear your philosophy when I was struggling. You trying to work with Ike 'helping' brings back so many memories. 😅 I still struggle with keeping my place clean. Please know you've helped this 75 year old great-grandmother. You're the best!
Thank you for a sweet, encouraging video. I actually laughed a couple of times. And I admire your energy and love for your family.
I really enjoyed the video! Thank you! I struggle with cleaning and tidying and have my whole life. It really helps to see you not give up.
Excellent video!! I hope you all are having the best time away!! See you soon! ❤
New subscriber! I love your accent and voiceover! These are the realistic cleaning videos I need in my life! Not “perfect” moms cleaning their already “perfect” houses.
I LOVE your voiceovers I literally just listen to the video I barely watch but I like your voice and stories and your positivity!!
I am very much enjoying your videos, the voice-overs, your cute little house, which I think you are doing a superb job of managing with your two little ones. I am glad you're doing these when your time permits. You're teaching valuable lessons about lots of worthwhile things and I appreciate it. 🙏 ❤
Thank You so much for your videos. Between being Adhd and having health issues, my home is a constant struggle. I adore your videos. Also, thank you for showing what a real home looks like. Here, it seems all the videos now are people cleaning spotless homes, and that's not really realistic, esp when you have kids or grands. Thank You for being an amazing inspiration 💖
I'm add and have health problems too. I don't think I'm ADHD as I have no energy. House is a constant struggle.
@RameyRocks Yeah I'm missing the H part too. They changed the add to adhd though. I'm not sure because we arnt all H.
Some people seem to think they are experts on other people's lives.
I was like: do people actually comment on the sponges? Really? I clean for a living and sometimes all the material is the same colour but I always know what os being used for what purpose. In the end just wash it on high temperature or throw away anything that has been in disgusting places and that is that.
Why has she gotten all if this comments?
Hi hun I also have trouble with Windows as I'm so short, too. 😅 Ignore critics hun. Everyone has their own way of parenting and house cleaning. You're doing a great job. 👍
I'll be an expert on someone else's life after I become an expert on mine!
I just found your videos. I totally love them! I'm from the states; Virginia, actually. I love to hear you talk. You are right on target with what you say. All the time. I love it. Please don't change. You are young and yet you are so wise. It's so refreshing. I'm 60 years old. I suffer from ADHD and all the additional trappings that come along with that. I have struggled like you with clutter, but I totally love deep cleaning. It is so satisfying. You keep doing you, Honey. You are perfect just the way you are! ❤😊🇺🇲
I don’t think it’s that simple to teach kids to tidy after themselves, I don’t think it’s fair to make kids miserable and scared to play and have fun.
My grandchildren trash their house too, I do try and persuade my daughter not to buy so many toys, I think they get overwhelmed and don’t know what to play with, but it’s only for a short time, they aren’t kids for long. 😢
It's good you are keeping yourself on camera. Keep it real. I like your jokes every now and then as you work 😂
I am going to be very judgmental here: you are amazing 👏! Thank you for another lovely video, i hope you had a good holiday!! Lots of love from germany♥️
I love your channel! Please pay no heed to criticisms from those with no or one child. There are many of us out here who get it! In 30 minutes time, one child can trash multiple rooms.
Been watching on Tiktok from almost the beginning i think and I'm so pleased to click on here today to see you have over 36k subscribers 😀 love all of your videos especially the voice-overs it's like listening to a friend x
I agree it is lovely to come home to a clean house.
Thank u for giving me the motivation to clean it helps me so thank u and much appreciated all the best ❤
I love your voice, accent and what u are saying a lot. A lot of the time I am not even watching cause I put you on while I clean😅
You are doing great and I think you have your priorities right! And as long as u and your family are fine with the flow of messes and cleaning then everything is fine.
In my opinion every person who takes the time and writes mean comments is just feeling miserable with their own life and projects those feelings towards other...otherwise they would spend their time differently...I mean dang if u are offended by a persons messy house watch something different...YOU are choosing the videos you watch...watch sth that makes you happy, not sth that makes you insult people...blows my mind everytime...
Keep beeing you and life's gonna be alright❤
Have a lovely time in Cornwall with your family. I love Cornwall too! You keep your videos very real and I like that. Inspiring to see you tackle every day tasks with two little ones. I remember those days and it's certainly hard work. Thank you. New subscriber 👍🙂
I love watching the videos my house is cluttered as well. listening to you talk, which I love, inspires me. I hope to see more of you.
You are so lovely, strong, honest, considerate. Best wishes to you and your fantastic family.
Those kids are very lucky to have a mum like you. You are such a sweetheart and wise beyond your years.
Great job of educating.
Remi, just found your videos! Absolutely love how you share your home, your struggles with cleaning and organizing, your tips and hints! You are inspiring! Keep up the videos! Hugs from the U.S.
i think that only 10% of people keep their homes showroom ready and the rest of us live!
I love your videos. Thanks for all the terrific tips. Plus you're a fantastic and loving Mum with a wise and intelligent approach to parenting. Well done!
So cute & sweet how Ike hands items of laundry up to you. Just darling! 😍
Ì think you shouldn't need to explain yourself to anyone I love watching you. You remind me of myself when I was younger. And I love listening to you. Hope you have a great holiday.
I can relate to your situation. I love your voice and the way you express yourself. I'll be watching your videos!!
Your voice is so soothing
“He’s one. He absolutely just trashes the place”. No truer words!! 🤣🤣
You do a fabulous job, Rémi! 👏🏻👏🏻
I love your videos, and I love the encouragement and guidance in your commentary. Just saying, this happened and it’s ok.. that really helps with the anxiety and overwhelm that can try to take control over us sometimes
Well done, you’re doing great! and also motivating.
I think your a grand lass and I like your point of view. I enjoy watching you Potter around and listening to you chat.. You seem like a well balanced and very sweet young lady 💜🙏
Your baby Ike is adorable. Helping momma clean and hang the laundry. Helped you with your bed also. Lol. And your older boy Rudy helping clean the toy corner. What a little man. They grow up way to fast. You are doing a great job of being a mom. And also a cleaning video creator. Thank you. I enjoy watching and listening to your videos. And seeing you interact with your family. ❤
I like hearing about your experiences. I am depressed because I lost my special needs on March 12. He had Spina Bifida and we both had executive dysfunction.
I have had no motivation to clean until I found you!
Thank you for sharing! Hope your holiday is everything you want...and more!! You are inspiring me
As you try to explain yourself (no need by the way) Ike comes in and tried to clean the worktops, bless him! You are setting a great example.
I love Cornwall. Went there for a week when I lived in England. Wishing you a most glorious holiday 🎉🌴
How you were parented really does have impact on your life. My parents were incredibly exacting and very scimpy on praise. It was almost impossible to please them. As a result I had severe asthma as a kid (stress-related) and developed into a classic over-achieving perfectionist. 😂 I think it's great your son WANTS to help you. I'm sure you are quick to thank him and be affectionate with him. That just means he'll develop a willing spirit and a sense of accomplishment that will make him a great husband someday. I confess, I did roar with laughter (sympathetically of course) over the prawns-on-vacation disaster. I feel a little guilty. Just a little. Anyway, thanks for a fun video, and greetings from across the pond in sunny Florida. 😊
11:19 That storage bag idea is genius! We have so much stuff that just doesn't have a place in the house, definitely need to get one!
You’re a darling lady and wonderful mother. Good job!
💕The world is a better place with you in it.. just found your videos but they are so nice to watch❣
I think Rudy's love for cleaning probably comes from the healthy cleaning habits you are showing him! Just found your videos this summer. The first I watched was the how to declutter when you are overwhelmed. I felt seeeeeen! (but in a good way) Thanks for showing us that this is normal for some people and that we don't have to feel ashamed, because that makes the task so much harder when you feel like crap about yourself.
In this video you mention being excited about 20k followers, and I now see you've grown to over 117k! So excited for you!!
Love from Canada
Great way to stay motivated when i wonder how and why to certain items in my house
Judgemental comments were coming from me to me. You helped me shut myself up and tell myself I am good enough. You still help me get through my days of mom struggles, conflicts and guilt of not being able to accomplish perfection. Sometimes you help me just sit back a minute and enjoy my little lovelies. ❤
Your boys are blessed to have you! ❤
Have a lovely holiday! Your boys are beautiful too. 🥰
I am so happy I found your channel; my kids are grown and I am meticulous about my home because I have time. Having said that, I love your attitude about cleaning and children and doing things your way; you have a lot of wisdom (I’m 62 and I know wisdom when I see it)! ❤😊❤
Omg i only came across your videos today and I've been watching them all day! I can relate to so many things youve said also with suffering from depression ive been putting the housework off for so long, but today ive managed to do everything thanks for the motivation! Xx
I've been learning about Compassion Focused Therapy. It helps when negative self talk become overwhelming.
Wow so much work. Im already tired😂 just watching you, bless you🙏🌲❤️
I love these videos.. I can’t wait to see the new stuff
There's something psychological about tidying up before you go away!!
Don't be overly sensitive. Folks just speak from their own pain and experience. At one point in my career I figured out that often when someone criticized me, sometimes there was a grain of truth in it. I learned a lot and got better and better. I also learned not to take things personally and to usually let deliberate unkindness and meanness go. My experience was that most people didn't;t mean to be unkind--they actually wanted to help, in their own awkward way. Please stop putting yourself down--you are not messy and lazy. I see you as an overcomer who gets up every day and does what's necessary to make a good life and home for your family. My older son turned out kind of messy, in spite of my efforts (I had no cooperation, only opposition froths father), but when he married I had a talk with his bride. I stood her in front of a mirror and asked her to look at her forehead and tell me if there was any writing on it. She said No. I said RIGHT! It does NOT say SLAVE or SERVANT. I TOLD HER I KNOW YOU LOVE HIM, BUT IF YOU REALLY LOVE HIM, YOU WILL MAKE HIM A BETTER MAN BY REQUIRING RESPECT AND COOPERATION IN THE HOME. I also said I was sorry I hadn't done a better job (I felt part of it was my uncooperative husband's fault, but didn't involve her in my personal woes). It took a while, but they just celebrated their 25th wedding anniversary. Their home is not a magazine cover, but it is warm, inviting, and comfortably neat and organized. Everyone (including their two sons) takes part in keeping things tidy. They share the load. There is peace and harmony there, and guests, friends, and family are welcome. I'm 77 yrs old, and I speak from experience.
Hi Remi I think you do a great job have a wonderful holiday
You are so great to tackle everything. I connect with you because I feel the same kind of mess and challenges since I experienced a similar kind of parent that was overwelmed by all the tasks ( like your father and aunt ). Inspiring!
Hi Remi 🥰 I'm a new subscriber that found your 'How to tidy a messy house when you just don’t know where to begin!' video.
I'm a 68 yr old mother & grandmother living in the US. I recently moved into a small apartment and am looking for ways to finish unpacking boxes to organize it.
🎈🎈 I would like to commend you on your parenting. You are spot on with what you're doing 🥰 I too have 3 children that were close in age like yours are. (All grown up now) I can guarantee you that when you're children grow up, they won't remember a clean house as much as they will the love, family time and experiences of being home.
A house needs to be home...not a showpiece. Yes we need to keep it as clean and tidy as possible, but giving our children time is so incredibly important for them to know they're loved and can rely on you to be there when they need you. ❤
If you feel like doing some vlogs of you cooking, shopping or vacation time, please include them too. They're also so much fun and will give you a break from doing voiceovers on cleaning videos.
Thank you so very much. Have a wonderful week.
I love this and you're voice over!
I absolutely love your channel and how down-to-earth and true to yourself that you are there are always going to be people who will have negative comments and I'm hopeful that they don't get under your skin I hope you have a fantastic holiday
Just popping in to say I love your reference to Labyrinth. Favorite movie!
Girl 🙌 I have 2 boys, my 8 year old has Asperger’s and type 1 diabetes and my 5 year old was born bilaterally deaf, has autism and ADHD. Thanks to my boys I have sought my own autism and ADHD diagnoses. I have also been diagnosed with OCD. I’m “home” and the house should be clean, but as with your little Cutie, Ike (cool name!!), my youngest is fondly known as Captain Chaos and boy does he live up to that name!!! I’ve had sinusitis for over 2 weeks, husband works 12-13hr days and now now we’re on another half term… 🤦🏼♀️ Managed a HUGE chunk yesterday (we very lucky to have a 3 bed house, but also have a conservatory & Salon), which means extra rooms to keep clean and tidy out of of Captain’s greasy mitts!! Life isn’t easy, but we get done what we can, when we can. Yesterday’s efforts haven’t carried over into today, but it’s bearable. As they say “a woman’s work is never done…”. Glutton for punishment that I am I am SOOOO broody for a 3rd baby… husband isn’t keen… 😂 Keep up the great work and don’t let people get you down. Until you have walked in the person’s shoes you can’t judge!! My house can look like yours in a day, so it’s not always about “letting it get that way”. My ONLY stipulation in this house is not to leave rubbish in rooms and plates, other than that the kids have free rein and PLENTY of toys, despite my constant clear outs and donating…
I love watching your videos keep up the good work!
Remi, I think you’re a great Mum! I like your voice too. I’m sorry you felt that way growing up. Sometimes we don’t always do the right thing, but you’re right, you are doing it your way. Keep up the good job. Love your videos ❣️👍
Your kids always come first . people seem to forget lufe happens houses get messy. Your house looks great don't worry what others day we can only do what we can.
Well done sweetheart. You’re doing a great job as 100% mum & a brilliant person that we can relate to. Love diane xxx
I’m always holding on to what my mother used to tell me: once you cleaned up you won’t know if the mess was from three days or three weeks. Gives me a lot of peace.
Love hearing this from you! So true💜I wish I had these videos when I was home alone cleaning and raising my son. It can be so lonely and failure provoking. 🤗💝
love the way you hug the little one every so often, seen to be ok with him
Your videos are inspiring, I’ve never been a clean house person, so watching you helps me! Enjoy your vacation!
Hope you all have a wonderful time away 🥰
Hi Remi, great inspirational videos. I'm truly amazed at your wisdom, your positivity, your love for your family and this community.
Thanks for sharing this.
A tip if I may : about your full sugar coke drinking, maybe you could gradually mix some diet coke with normal coke , increasing it week by week. My own experience with sugar substitutes as I'm a type 2 diabetic, has taught me that our taste buds adapt gradually over time. Enjoy your holiday and looking forward to your decluttering video. 🎉❤
Fab clean. Enjoy your holiday.
Cornwall is on our next area to visit in England. All the TV shows & videos I've seen of Cornwall are just too too gorgeous. I've been lucky enough to visit quite a few areas of the UK, but of course there's still lots to cover :-) Hope you have a brilliant holiday.
Love your channel and content. I can relate on so many levels. I’ve just got to start watching in the morning so I’ll have great motivation when I need to get busy instead of at nite when I need to go to bed. Love to your family & keep the videos coming on RUclips.
