Simple organisation tips and productivity hacks
Organising your home and family can be overwhelming!
The demands of home and family life can make any mum feel overwhelmed fast.
If you’ve ever felt like no matter how hard you try, you just can’t seem to keep your home clutter free with kids, or get your family organised, you’re not alone.
I’ve felt like this many times.
As a mum I know only too well how crazy home and family life can get. How one minute you can feel on top of everything, and the next minute feel like everything is in chaos.
I’ve always been organised, but it wasn’t until I became a mum that my need for organisation was tested, where many times I lost it at the state of my house – toys everywhere, toothpaste lids left off, a messy bathroom less than 1 hour after cleaning it, you get the picture.
I knew that I had to do something to help me get some control back.
So I tried many different organisation systems to help me become a more organised mum, so I could better manage my home and family life.
As a result, my home and family life is much less chaotic, and way more organised, and I feel much better for it.
Feeling more organised and less chaotic is something I want all mums to feel, which is why Organised Mum Life exists, to share simple organisation tips to calm the chaos of mum life.
Organising your home and family life is constant work, but having some simple systems in place, will help you keep on top of everything mum life throws at you, as well as help keep you sane!

I strongly believe that being organised isn’t about perfection, it’s about finding systems that work for you.

A little bit about me
Before starting Organised Mum Life, I worked in marketing for over 20 years and in 2017 I moved from Australia to the UK, where I now live.
I’m a boy mum to two super active boys, who have energy levels so high that it’s often hard to keep up with them!
When I get some time out I love baking, reading, eating, and drinking heaps of coffee.
