How Laundryheap Can Help With Parental Burnout

Parental burnout is very real. Juggling childcare, the chores, your jobs. Sometimes it all seems too much, and you can feel overwhelmed and exhausted. But you don’t have to struggle, luckily there is help at hand with Laundryheap. Yes, you can breathe a sigh of relief…

Laundryheap were founded in 2014 in London but have expanded globally to include eleven countries. Which goes to show just how much customers value what they are doing! They can take away some of the strain for you with their on demand laundry services. They collect your washing, clean it, iron it and return it to your home. It sounds incredible, doesn’t it? It’s very simple to arrange, you just book online or through their mobile app.

You can even get your bulky items washed, the ones you can never squeeze into your own washing machine! I would gladly pay £26.95 to get my super king duvet refreshed. Our dogs like to snooze on our bed so it would be great if I could actually wash more than the duvet cover.

One Less Battle

For anyone dealing with the endless cycle of washing a service that returns 98.7% of washing the next day is a real godsend. As a parent who hasn’t managed to get the children to pitch in with the washing, I would love to free up my time to do other things instead. My boys are quick enough to moan they do not have clean clothes too! So, if you have older teens, they can even pitch in and help pay for the service. Although if you can get the children to help with chores its great for their development!

Prioritise Self-Care

Many of us understand that chores can be good for your health, they keep you active and can distract you from your worries. However, you need a break too, a chance to rest up and support your own well-being!

It can be hard to find time to focus on self-care. It seems impossible if you are constantly filling and emptying the washing machine. With Laundryheap taking care of that side of things instead you can go for a walk, listen to music or read a book. Basically, just take a little time out for yourself to recharge your batteries.

A Celebration

You don’t even have to use their services all the time, you could have it as a special treat every now and then. Book Laundryheap to take care of your laundry when its your birthday, anniversary or other special occasion. Who wants to spend their birthday working through the laundry mountain! I know I don’t! Seeing the bottom of the laundry basket would be a welcome present for me. I love that they offer Laundryheap gift cards. You get a bit extra with your order too, buy a £75 gift card you get an extra £25 free. It’s nice when you get a bit more for your money.

Gender Divide

laundryheap chores

Women in different sex households tend to do 65% of the physical housework. According to the article routine jobs tend to end up being earmarked for the women. So why not encourage your husband or partner to pay for the Laundryheap service to make things fairer. It’s not reasonable for our domestic load to be so unbalanced. But if you cannot get your husband to physically help more around the house hopefully you can point them in the direction of Laundryheap instead.
