from Motherhood Simplified · host Krista Lockwood
One of the biggest challenges moms face is keeping their home clean and manageable, especially when life feels chaotic with kids, schedules, and responsibilities. If you're looking for how to make your home easy to clean, this post will help you with simple tips and strategies to set up a clutter-free space that practically cleans itself.I recently posted in our group about how I did a quick declutter session at home to set up our space to work for us, and not against us after having our last baby. This wasn’t my first time decluttering. I had already decluttered my home long before this. After having my baby, I found myself going through it again to make sure our space continued to stay simplified and manageable.So, if you’re wondering how you can make your home easier to clean, even after you've decluttered it once, this is for you. Let’s dive into what it looks like to maintain a clutter-free space and how decluttering can simplify your daily life and keep things running smoothlyI’m going to share some personal stories from my postpartum experience, offer you practical advice for making your home easier to clean, and show you how decluttering is the key to achieving this.Decluttering isn’t always easy, but having a solid plan will help keep you focused and on track. That’s why I created the Decluttering Simplified course, which is designed specifically for moms who need a step-by-step guide to declutter their homes efficiently.If you’ve ever started decluttering only to get distracted or overwhelmed, this course is for you. It’s packed with practical tips, daily prompts, and strategies to help you pick up right where you left off—no more starting and stopping, no more feeling like you're not making progress.When you follow the Decluttering Simplified plan, you’ll be able to create a home that works for you, making it so much easier to clean and maintain. You’ll also have the mental clarity that comes with living in a clutter-free space.

With a newborn, a toddler and 3 big kids I felt like our home needed to be re-curated. So I went on a mission to declutter the old and bring in some NEW - specifically in the form of toys for the toddler. I am sharing with you how I intentionally add in Montessori elements into our home and play and what it looks like.
