Working at home can be an amazing experience. Home, as a matter-of-fact, is my favorite place to work from, whether I am writing or babysitting. I like to know that I can take advantage of free moments to keep up with a few of my household tasks.
Here are my best tips for the WAH single mom:
1. Clean and get ready for your day while your children are getting ready for theirs.
2. Spend 30 minutes speed cleaning your home before you begin your work day. This does not mean deep cleaning.
3. Keep a snack basket near your work area. You should be able to reach it while working, and it should consist of healthy snacks.
4. Break for lunch. After lunch, sweep and (and wash, if necessary) floors and vacuum.
5. Let the answering machine do its job.
6. Schedule time with your children every day.
What tips do you have for the WAH single mother?
