I'd happily pay someone to make our kids playroom more functional, we need storage and seating, but budget is tight so I put &lt;100. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-pay-someone-to#post-1305854 Sun, 29 Dec 2013 13:01:10 +0000 looch 1305854@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am on the fence as well. I can see it for turning the nursery into a functional toddler room, but not the nursery. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-pay-someone-to#post-1305822 Sun, 29 Dec 2013 12:22:18 +0000 Happygal 1305822@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If it was in the budget, I would definitely pay for it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-pay-someone-to#post-1305708 Sun, 29 Dec 2013 10:48:34 +0000 Reese 1305708@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think this is an amazing idea. I would totally pay for this. I put $100-$500 range </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-pay-someone-to#post-1305703 Sun, 29 Dec 2013 10:46:06 +0000 mrs. wagon 1305703@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So much more in possibility.. Assembling the crib, installing closet systems for diaper and wipe storage, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-pay-someone-to#post-1305700 Sun, 29 Dec 2013 10:45:14 +0000 mrs. wagon 1305700@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I actually thought about this too when I had my first child... A service to install the baby monitor, a temperature and humidity reader device, blackout curtains, straps attaching furniture to walls, etc etc and the piece De resistance: a bathroom vent fan in the ceiling ! So many times I had to put the baby down for a nap or bedtime in a room that still reeked of diarrhea or vomit because you can only air it out for a couple of hours! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-pay-someone-to#post-1305690 Sun, 29 Dec 2013 10:33:57 +0000 Grace 1305690@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think there would be a market, but my concern is that people would want to use a designer/interior decorator. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-pay-someone-to#post-1305172 Sat, 28 Dec 2013 20:47:53 +0000 matador84 1305172@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm on the fence. I have a vision but can never put together usually due to lack of time...thus someone who could execute my vision for me would be helpful. Since DH works out of town, everyonce and a while I pay a sitter to watch my DS while I shop or do stuff around the house...in this case it's other way around. I think you've got a good market for it, and if you can get a few clients who you do really good work for, you could really take off. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-pay-someone-to#post-1305153 Sat, 28 Dec 2013 20:35:16 +0000 Weagle 1305153@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If I had the money I would totally hire someone like this! I get so frustrated in the process of organizing, though I'm fairly creative. I would want someone to come alongside me and teach me as we create my child's space together. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-pay-someone-to#post-1305140 Sat, 28 Dec 2013 20:29:13 +0000 T-Mom 1305140@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have considered having an organizer come and work on my house for a few hours, so this appeals to me on some level. Probably not for my nursery since ours is all function and absolutely no decor. However, maybe that would not have been the case if I had known someone like you at the time! :-) . I need help around my entire house! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-pay-someone-to#post-1305135 Sat, 28 Dec 2013 20:27:36 +0000 MapleMoose 1305135@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would rather have someone come and give me ideas about organization, functionality, and decor strategies for all rooms in my house, not restricted to a nursery or child zones. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-pay-someone-to#post-1305062 Sat, 28 Dec 2013 19:50:25 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 1305062@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would welcome and pay for the extra help. I already know exactly what I want, but I would need help on the execution. My husband does not always agree on my "fancy" ideas so nursery projects would fall solely on me. Hanging MUR decals, sewing custom bedding, and narrowing down art (outside of an HB poll) would be things I'd love help with. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-pay-someone-to#post-1305049 Sat, 28 Dec 2013 19:44:27 +0000 Mrs. Lion 1305049@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am in the Triangle area in NC, which is FULL of very busy professional double income families. Definitely the place to try something like this, if anywhere. :) </p> <p>Thanks for the feedback! I am also not one to allocate funds to this, but busy mommas have to delegate sometimes, so why not use that to my advantage, right? :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-pay-someone-to#post-1305048 Sat, 28 Dec 2013 19:44:22 +0000 yin 1305048@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Unfortunately it's not in the budget for us, and I prefer to decorate at my own pace (very slow). Even though it's not for me, I can see the market for it in the right area. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-pay-someone-to#post-1305045 Sat, 28 Dec 2013 19:42:21 +0000 Mae 1305045@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, I don't like paying people to do anything I can easily do myself. But I bet it depends where you live. I don't see people in the midwest being much for this, but maybe in bigger metro areas where people are more used to outsourcing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-pay-someone-to#post-1305044 Sat, 28 Dec 2013 19:42:01 +0000 MamaMoose 1305044@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You would definitely have to be in a high income area to make this work as a business. I think there definitely would be a market for it with busy double income parents. However for me personally, I didn't/don't care enough about a fancy nursery to allocate funds to this. I'm happy enough with the simple nursery my husband and I put together ourselves. We have the cash to fund this but I'd much rather put it in her college fund. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-pay-someone-to#post-1305037 Sat, 28 Dec 2013 19:37:31 +0000 Crystal 1305037@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>People pay for all different types of organizers and help, I can't see why this wouldn't work! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-pay-someone-to#post-1305027 Sat, 28 Dec 2013 19:31:46 +0000 spaniellove 1305027@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love a great finished product but get way too frustrated in the process, so I can see a market for this. If someone could pull together my nursery now, I would gladly hand it over. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-pay-someone-to#post-1305026 Sat, 28 Dec 2013 19:31:27 +0000 immabeetoo 1305026@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think people would in the right area, who have the extra cash. You could look and see if there are any professional organizers in your area and what they charge. I think it would work to double as child proofing service, but you'd have to look into the liability issues with that (and probably even without specifically child proofing - if you're organizing and setting up a room with kids in mind). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-pay-someone-to#post-1305018 Sat, 28 Dec 2013 19:28:51 +0000 birdofafeather 1305018@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i didn't vote because i don't have the cash to fund this, but my friend is an organizer and she makes good money helping people do this kind of thing! she has a niche now with photo organization and i bet you could find a niche with kids rooms! moms need help! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-pay-someone-to#post-1305014 Sat, 28 Dec 2013 19:27:05 +0000 Torchwood 1305014@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I voted no, but I know enough people who are not crafty but care about that sort of thing to think there would be a market for it. My mom pays someone to do her decorating, so I think she'd be the sort of person you're looking for. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-pay-someone-to#post-1305009 Sat, 28 Dec 2013 19:23:49 +0000 regberadaisy 1305009@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, I don't know anyone that has expendable cash like that on top of having a new baby come. But then some parents to be get pretty neurotic about the nursery..... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-pay-someone-to#post-1304944 Sat, 28 Dec 2013 18:48:04 +0000 Mrs. Lion 1304944@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>turn your nursery/child's room/playroom ideas into reality and/or organize an existing room to make it more functional and child friendly?</p> <p>I am considering a possible small business idea for the future, but I am curious if there is even a market for this. I love the crafty DIY design stuff myself, and organizing is one of my favorite things, so I can't imagine paying someone else to do it for me...but I know a lot of moms just aren't that interested in the crafting or don't have time, even though they want to have a beautiful functional space for their kids. </p> <p>I am thinking services could range from a few hours to help organize an existing space or several weeks to create a new space from scratch, so obviously there would be different costs associated depending on the amount of time required. Thoughts? </p>
