Home and Family Management Checklist
I am obsessed with finding ways to make life easier. One of those ways is with checklists/templates OR SOPs (standards of procedures) for repeated tasks that are necessary to run both my life and my business. And I literally have a LIBRARY of SOPs that I’ve created and use.
Documenting the things I must do to run both my home and my company allows me to take them out of my head, and that helps me deal with decision fatigue. Plus, our lives are one GIANT project management problem so I always look for ways to give myself a break.
Anywho, I got HUNDREDS of responses, and so many people told me they’d even want to buy my SOPs. And one of the things I’m committed to doing in this community on Patreon, is building a whole library of life and work hacks that you can also use as cheat codes. I’ll try to drop one of these every month.
So let’s start with the first one!
You ever feel like keeping up with your home is a never-ending cycle of “Wait, I have to do THAT too?” Well, this will help.
Why does this matter?
Because now you can keep tabs of the upkeep needed for the house. Some tasks are the mundane and some are larger, but this checklist is so helpful to us in the Jones Household, and I figured it’s a good one for you to have first.
What you’re getting:
- 🗓️ Daily tasks – regular daily light tasks, so that they don’t pile up, you’ll future self will thank you.
- 📅 Weekly tasks – for handling laundry, groceries, and tidying up without losing your mind.
- 🧼 Deep cleaning schedules – cuz sometimes you need to get into the details of it.
- 🚨 Quarterly safety checks – so you know stuff like your smoke detector isn’t just decoration and keeps you safe.
- 🌱 Seasonal prep and annual maintenance – because you KNOW the seasons change fast and you don’t want to get caught off guard with a broken space heater.
Bottom line: This SOP will help you run your home like a BOSS. Download it, edit it as you need for your family’s specific situation and get the rest of your family involved! This is a checklist that even kids could use.
What’s the ONE home maintenance task that always seems to slip through the cracks for you? Drop it in the comments, I know our home’s not the only one who forgets to check the smoke detector batteries! 😅
Also, let me know what other types of SOPs you wanna see!
