I spend about 2 hours a day cleaning. I hate wasting an entire day on chores so I try to spread them out throughout the week.
-
Wow! Definitely not that much. Half-hour at most, and more time on the weekend as needed. Perhaps my standards are lower
-
I spend probably 1-2 hours every other day doing dishes, sweeping the floors, laundry, etc. I mainly try to do it during LO's naps.
-
We have a cleaning lady for deep cleaning..... so I usually just spend some time picking up and cleaning up after the messes that we make as we make them. I also do a ton of laundry.... but that takes longer now that LO is 2 and loves to help with those things.
-
@Mrs. Yoyo: I want to try to trim down to :30 per day! I think the fact that we have three dogs plus a toddler makes it difficult to keep clean - someone is always making a mess. Plus I'm kinda OCD
-
I'm a temporary SAHM (on mat leave) and I probably spend about 30 mins cleaning on avg every day. I pick a room a day to deep clean, and it doesn't take too much time.
-
@pinkcupcake: Oh three dogs will do it! I don't have those, but I do have the toddler ... And since we have a playroom now we have cut way down on the "toys everywhere" problem. Most of my time is probably spent on the kitchen, and DH is good about vacuuming/sweeping.
-
I would say probably about an hour/day.
-
About an hour
-
I spend about 45 minutes each day picking up, wiping down, and doing laundry. DH and I used to then spend nearly half a saturday each week doing the serious cleaning. We finally got a cleaning lady twice a month when DH's job demanded too much of his time and energy.
ETA - Annnnnddd.... I just realized this post was for SAHM. DH and I are just DINKs at this point. Hahaha.... Sorry to comment.
-
2-2.5 hrs? Dishes, laundry, mopping, regular cleanup of spaces, etc. I am so far behind right now btw!
-
Including laundry and dishes about 30 mins/day.
-
@pinkcupcake: with a dog, floors are a real problem for me!
-
30 min/day
-
sometimes it feels like I spend all day cleaning. in reality, it's probably 45 min to an hour total?
-
@Mrs. Sketchbook: yeah, isn't it crazy how much stuff dogs track around?!
I am so jealous of you ladies that only need to spend :30-:45 per say cleaning. How do you do it?! :T
-
Hmm, I started mat leave a week ago (still waiting on Baby) and I think I've done a total of 2 hours since then. Your house must be spotless!
-
Including dishes after dinner (we don't have a dishwasher), probably about an hour to an hour and a half.
-
probably about an hour, including dishes (no dishwasher). But we live in a very tiny 2-bedroom apartment, and it is currently kind of gross. I have a 4-month old who just started taking *some* of her naps alone. Hopefully by the time she is a year, I will be caught up.
-
About an hour - laundry, dishes, tidying, picking up toys, light housework. A cleaning lady comes every other week for deep cleaning.
-
Total? 30 minutes to an hour, but way spread out. I guess more like an hour most days.
-
Ha ha, this is the BIGGEST bone of contention with DH right now. He wants me to spend 20 minutes cleaning each day, but he expects a GOOD clean in that time. Sounds great, but A won't nap in her crib, only in the bed with me, so I have zilch time to actually do that cleaning. We're working on getting her to nap in her crib this week. I would love a cleaner but can't justify the cost when I'm at home all day.
-
Depends - most days...none! (Aside from normal picking up after DD)
I do all our laundry in one day and vacuum once a week.
DH does the dishes every night and vacuums once a week too.
Sundays we wipe down counters/bathrooms and dust. I guess we just aren't really messy people? -
I just started a daily routine and I'd guess I do roughly 2 to 3 hours cleaning as well of you include clearing clutter and putting away toys. We have a very small space so I kind if have to or it gets out of control quickly.
-
About an hour but spread out over the day!
-
I'd say between 1-2 hrs depending on how much laundry I have.
-
Probably about 90 minutes, but definitely spread out during the entire day.
-
Whoa. Every day? Probably 45 minutes, excluding laundry. Some days zero. I spend a lot more time cooking/baking than I do cleaning.
-
Probably between 30-60 min/day most days.
-
About an hour excluding laundry. I try to do a specific task per day.
