The Organized Home for New Parents

With 3 young kids and a busy small business to run, Ría Safford knows that life as a new parent can often feel like “crazytown bananaland.” From dirty dishes piling up in the kitchen sink to heaps of new toys and clothes and contraptions in every corner of your home, life with young kids can be, well, a lot.

That’s why Ría, a former messy momma herself, hunkered down and developed systems to declutter and calm the chaos of everyday life spilling into her home. Now in her first book, the highly-sought-after national organizing expert shares the tried-and-true techniques that she’s used to help both A-list celebrity clients and everyday new parents reduce stress and bring order to their families’ life at home with kids ages 0-2.

In The Organized Home for New Parents, Ría will teach you:

• How to organize your baby or toddler’s spaces (nursery, bathroom, play area) so that the things you need to care for them are easy to find and use
• How to create systems for shared spaces like your kitchen and pantry to make activities like breastfeeding, solid food prep, etc. more manageable
• How to arrange your stroller, diaper bag, and other essentials for trips outside the house and on the road
• Hacks for tackling the growing pile of laundry throughout the week
• How to juggle the important stuff (your mental to-do list, your calendar, your records) so you can keep track of your family’s schedule
• Tips for bringing peace to your personal spaces (bedroom, bathroom, closet) so you can start your day off on the right foot
• How to build good habits to regularly reset your spaces so that toys, clothes, and other items can be cycled out of the home as your child grows

This book also includes dozens of images from inside other new parents’ homes, as well as checklists and charts that will help you quickly prioritize what you need (and when) to prepare your home for your baby.

The perfect baby shower present or gift for new moms and dads, The Organized Home for New Parents will help you get through this hectic season of life and create a safe, comfortable, and organized home for your growing family.
