Reset Your Nest with Jennifer Martin The Planning Parent

    • Parenting

Today’s guest Jennifer Martin uses her interior design background and love for organization to bring the world of design and organization together for other busy families.
The first tip to get started with the Reset Your Nest technique is to just start small.  Pick one small, achievable pain point, do appropriate research ahead of time for what materials you’ll need, and finish it in a short amount of time.  After you’ve done that, maintenance on that area is not hard. It’s very easy to get overwhelmed with big projects that quickly spiral out of control.
You can enlist the help of your family with the upkeep by using the “touch it once” rule to be sure that everything goes back in its “home” and everyone helps with 10-15 minutes before bedtime to put the house to bed.
If your house has a “landing spot” where stuff tends to pile up, Jen has some tips for dealing with those areas.
