Every young mother asks the question “how to do the cleaning when there is a small child in the house?” Of course, cleanliness and order are not just important, but extremely necessary for the baby’s health and safety. However, how to do everything – to look after the little one, and to create comfort and coziness in the home?
The ideal option is to call on relatives for help, for example, ask your grandmother, husband or older child to look after the fidget while you put things in order. But not all mothers have such an opportunity. What to do when there is not much to rely on?
So, here are some ideas on how to simplify the task.
Introduce the rule “everyone is responsible for cleanliness”
Try to keep your home tidy all the time. If there is no time to carry out a grandiose cleaning, you can agree with your household so that everyone will take on some “area of responsibility”. For example, even elementary things, waking up in the morning, you can make the bed yourself, and not leave it to your mother or wife, who is on maternity leave and “does nothing”. Let everyone hang their own clothes in their place and make sure that there is always order on the desk and shelves, put away their toys. You just need to introduce such a rule. Of course, loving people will always meet you.
The principle of “step-by-step” cleaning
Of course, cleanliness as a habit is great. But no one canceled wet cleaning, which should be carried out at least once a week. Some mothers choose a compromise solution – they carry out a “big” wash and clean the whole house not during the day, but gradually. For example, no more than one room per day. It is quite possible to do this within 30-40 minutes, and daily wiping the furniture with a damp sponge and disinfectant, at least in places accessible to the crumbs, will only take 10-15 minutes of your time. This can be done during the “quiet hour” of the baby.
Pay attention to the disinfectant
It is worth paying attention to the chemicals that are used for surface treatment. If the child is in the house when you clean, it is better to use safer substances. For example, you can make an aqueous vinegar solution and use it to wipe your furniture. It has antimicrobial effect and is not as harmful as many other modern gels. At the same time, be sure to ventilate the room so that the smell disappears.
Educate yourself an assistant
If your child is already 2-3 years old, then this is the most suitable age to teach him to order. In a playful way, of course. Give him his own bucket and rag for cleaning, show him where the toys “go to sleep.” Whatever help turns out to be, be sure to praise him and give out a small encouragement, for example, a treat, or read your favorite fairy tale.
