Household Chore System - Mom, Can I Help Around the House?

mom, can I help around the house?

a simple, step-by-step system for teaching your children life-long skills for pitching in and picking up

IMAGINE … your child saying to you, “mom, can I help around the house?” Since I created this family chore system for my family, I hear this from my kids all the time! Let me share with you one lesson I’ve learned in my many years as an organizing consultant (and as a mom of 2) …

You cannot truly gain control of your home and achieve an organized lifestyle if your children are a part of the problem and not an active and consistent part of the solution!

In this system, you will learn to:

· Fairly delegate household tasks age-appropriately

· Reduce stress by developing easy systems and routines for home maintenance

· Increase your child’s self-esteem and self-sufficiency

· Discover the most effective motivators and consequences to empower your children to cheerfully contribute to your home.

· Save the hours that you used to spend nagging your kids and doing all the work yourself

· Get everyone on board to maintain and take pride in an organized and clutter-free home

· Reduce conflict and increase positive communications with your family

· And So Much More!

~ Mary Delaney, wife & mother of three (ages 8,12 & 16)

“Janet has been helping my family get organized for about six months, so I was thrilled to learn that she had created a system for teaching my children to contribute at home. It has been such a time-saver to have a system that was already created, tested and proven by a professional organizer and other moms, rather than trying to create a system from scratch. It was a quick and easy way to get started on an organized home maintenance plan.”

~ Laura Biddle-Bruckman, mother of three (ages 8,12 & 16)
