Help. Have 4 young DC and a v busy life, Dp out of the house for long hours at work, I work pt from home.
Housekeeping not really a priority. House is consequently a mess most of the time. I have bags of clothes waiting to be sorted through, xmas presents with no home yet. Paperwork for various jobs in piles.
it is stressing me out.
Nothing is super unhygienic but the OCD out there would probably freak and I would definitely like it to be cleaner and tidier.
I also don't want the kids growing up to be untidy - they are good at certain things, like the automatically hang up coats on entering.
Am also conscious that I need them to learn this early so it becomes habit.
I have done a few things, e.g. put the kids crockery at kids height but I need to do more.
Would a cleaner once a fortnight help? (couldn't afford once a week I don't think)
Where do I start?

how do we teach the kids to be tidy, when we're not ourselves? Not sure where to start.
