If you’ve been following me for awhile you know I’m knee-deep in creating routines and schedules that simply work for me. I already have a daily routine in place, but stay-at-home mom life has got me in all kinds of structuring and restructuring and (I think) I’ve finally created a couple of schedules that do work for running a household-with the help of Pinterest of course. So here are my current schedules!
Laundry Schedule-Of course I can’t wash everything in a day, and rather than getting super overwhelmed by seeing the laundry in the hamper-each day of the week is dedicated to different type of load:
- Monday: Darks
- Tuesday: Aisha
- Wednesday: Lights
- Thursday: Shirts or Jeans
- Friday: what was missed on Friday
- Saturday: Sheets (if needed)
House Cleaning Schedule-So quick disclaimer, I do have a cleaning lady who comes every week-which is a huge blessing and a privilege. However, on the weeks she doesn’t come, I did have to create schedule to work with, and the same thing happened as it did with laundry: can’t do it all in a day especially with a toddler who likes to mark her territory EVERYWHERE. So while I have the daily cleaning chores that I do, deep cleans for each room are on specific days. So here goes:
- Daily cleaning:
- Dishes
- Wiping Down Countertops
- Sweeping Kitchen Floor
- Monday: Kitchen & Hallway
- Tuesday: Living Room
- Wednesday: Bathroom
- Thursday: Bedroom
At the moment, I’m still working on a work and errands schedule, but these are what I’m operating on right now. What do all of you do??

I love that you keep a good schedule as a SAHM. It keeps you on top of it in terms of time management.
