Hey. My doctor said don't make your bed in morning instead pull back duvet and open window so light and fresh air can stop bed bugs & dust mites especially for families with asthma.
I like that tip and I NEEDED that tip! "Don't sit down!" It's so true. Once I sit it's harder to get started again.

Thank you...I was looking for a summary as I don't have time to watch.. you're a life saver.
This video actually made me not want to be lazy anymore and clean
Hi, great video. I have to say my Grandmother taught me all these "rules" and was a master of keeping her home tidy and clean even when her 3 sons were at home. I've followed them now for many years (I'm 70 in a few months) and doing so helps keep you and your house ready for anyone or anything. My Mom always said, "the President could show up at Debbie's door and she'd be ready to welcome him and his following in as well as feed a gang of 50." Haha! But, it's true. Thanks for sharing your film...a great "refresher" for me and re-affirming.
It’s so hard not to cling onto old clothes (I constantly tell myself “oh but I might need it in the summer / holiday / night out”) but actually one the item is gone, I don’t miss it at all! And the extra space feels so much better! x
Ever since I've watched you.. you inspired me to do better. I enjoy being a mom/housewife now. I used to see it as a job or something im forced to do ,but now i don't mind it at all. I enjoy cooking, and cleaning. Having a clean home as much as possible 😊 my relationship with my husband has been amazing before, but i noticed a difference now its 100 times much better ! THANK YOU 😘
Elizabeth Rubio same here! Your videos make me feel like I'm not alone and that if you can do it, I can do it too!
Ah so good to hear Elizabeth!! Go you! Thank you so much for watching xxx
Ooh great for you
Elizabeth Rubio Your comment is very encouraging - thank you!!!
Sadly, most societies look up upon and respect only those women who work outside home and have a career.
You work so hard everyday to keep the entire house spotless. You are such an awesome mom and wife. I am highly inspired to clean every single day. I want to have a beautiful house and awesome family like yours😊🤍
due to depression, finding the motivation to clean can be so difficult but after watching a couple of your videos last night, I finally managed to get up and gut out the living room, however, I think while the advice of don't sit down is fantastic, I am heavily overweight, obese more like, so after 15mins of cleaning my whole lower back felt like it was seizing up, for anyone else who is like me and has back problems whether from weight or any other reason, if you must sit down, then do so but do it in very short bursts otherwise as mentioned, you won't get back up lol :)
Lord Death: Sorry for your medical issues. Maybe consult with your doctor and be sure your tasks aren’t contributing to your lower back pain. If you have pain relief medication, taking a dose before cleaning might help. Also supportive footwear (for reduced impact on your lower back, knees, and other joints). If you can manage a 15 minute clean a few times a day you can accomplish a lot. And of course not all housecleaning is high impact. Some things can be done seated (folding laundry) or with minimal movement.
But if back pain and/or depression are overwhelming you, grant yourself time and space to recover. Your doctor or therapist may have coping solutions to help you.
Absolutely love how you fold your clothes and place them in the drewer. I'm going to redo all my drewer ' s thanks for the tip !!!
You are really a good mom, and a good house wife , god bless you and your family 👏👏❤️❤️❤️❤️😍😍😍😍😍
I love it when u said 'Do not sit down until all the works are done.' I feel like it is so true in many ways! Thanks for the tips and looking forward for more!!! 💕
Seriously love I found ur channel and I am 32 week and 5 days pregnant with my IST baby.....😩😩trust me it's so ssso helpful to see u and listen to u with all your hacks and tricks thank you so much.....so much love and warmth from my house to urs.❤❤❤❤
Making the bed right after I wake up is the best habit that I have picked up from you! Coming back to a made bed vs a crumpled one makes you feel so much better! Thx for your tips!
It makes such a difference right. Simple things. Thank you so much for watching Satya xxx
I LOVE YOU, UR AWESOME!! 😃😄 I have a 17 yr old and an 8 yr (both boys), I work overnights, and come in a bit exhausted. I take my 8 yr to school , go back home, look at house and want to run the other way! Absolutely loved your video it was like my brain was getting a massage from watching all the neat tricks you provided. I can hear my voice scream in my head when my house is upside down. Lol thank you so much this was so useful!!
Love this! All week I have been organizing our closets, and dressers. I already knew folding clothes into parcels saves space, but I just never got around to it. I finally have been able to fit all my sons clothes in his dresser! Thank you for sharing! Life is so much easier when organized!
Thank you so much for your tips. It makes a real difference when they come from someone who is dealing with real life. I am so happy to realize that I have employed MANY of these tips over the years and THEY WORK!
Most valuable tip is "Dont sit down"😍😍
So glad I found your channel. I have five children and my baby-turned-toddler has just started his tornado development stage. I am feeling you!!! Not sitting down till everything is done is my mantra too. Thanks for the mariecondo organisation tips. Must get her book!
Wow I love the under the stairs storage!
These are great tips Em, I love the idea of that way of folding clothes because sometimes I struggle to remember where I put them. And Jon has asked a carpenter to do that under our stairs, we saw a friend of ours had it and it is amazing! x
Marie Kondo folding is honestly life changing! I love it and the shoe storage is so satisfying xx
That wallpaper in your laundry room is just so beautiful and cheery!
Fabulous video btw : )
Great tips! I clean other people's houses and love working my own hours and love seeing the looks on people's faces coming home to a clean and tidy house.
Just found your channel. Love your tips. One thing I found helpful in the shower is wipe it down before getting out.
After getting ready (I.e. makeup, hair ) I wipe down sink and counter with Clorox wipe. This way the shower and counter never have to have big clean
Totally agree, making my bed each morning just pulls the room together and makes me feel less like a slob! It's like an actual "ahh" feeling of relaxtion once it's made. Good tips!
Exactly Kristin! Thank you so much for watching xxx
Wow! what an incredible mom of three. You are super deligent and inspiring and those tips are useful. I just learned the new way to fold the cloth which I will try soon. Thank you for the great video.
I just found your channel and I'm very thankful cause I have five kids and I've been struggling to keep it clean and organized. Your such an inspiration and I'm definitely going to use these tips! Thank you for sharing, this is going to really help me. ☺️🙌💌
Me too!
I love a clean & tidy home, it just makes life so much happier. Before I got married my house was neat tidy and clean, I was a single dad of 2 for 15 years. 5 years ago I met a wonderful woman and we married, but being tidy and doing housework is on the bottom of her list, a messy home makes me so unhappy. I am the main bill payer and I can’t do all the housework too, we have a little boy of our own now so I know there’s less time to be tidy but I hope one day my wife will have some of your enthusiasm. Your videos are wonderful and such an inspiration to everyone I’m sure.
Loved this!!!!! Great tips
Hi from Denmark. Love your videos im talking everything in your saying, especially since im pregnant 😊 today we went to our first scan, and we're having twins! 😍😍😍
OMG Congrats! How exciting xxx
Mette wow! How exciting! Congrats ♥️♥️♥️
Mette congrats im having a baby too so cant do much so got a cleaner😝 still gotta do most stuff myself
My best friend had twins recently and she went into depression.

If I don't make my bed every morning I'm so much LESS productive! It really sets the tone for the day.
I have actually read a few studies about this! And when I put it to the test it is completely true- much more productive days start with making the bed.
I agree with that. 😀
I love cleaning house too. Everyday I need to do something new, like sewing a pillow case, gardening etc. Its always nice to be organized and clean.
I loved the last tip equally well.loved how you didn't just emphasize on doing it all by yourself incase you are not able to for some reason or you just not a pro at cleaning. If you can afford help just do it ! ☺️
Who’s watching CZcams videos on cleaning the house to avoid actually cleaning the house!!?? 😂😂😂
Me lol 😂
me
Me
April D me too
Bahahaha me! 😂 I'm tired of cleaning everyday all day!
Best organization tip. My favorite is the "don't sit down"...that is the killer of cleaning
Perfect routine!
I’m going to do this when I move before our little one comes along.
Thanks for sharing
EMILY: "don't sit down"
ME: *sat down watching this video after putting baby to bed with lots of jobs still to do* ....ahhh crap! 🙈
Haha Chloe, sorry!! Thank you so much for watching xxx
Haha! I'm doing the exact same thing!
Chloe Curtis. nap when baby naps.x
When you sit, you feel tired and loose your energy to carry on. It's like some monster named lazyness chasing you all the day along, whenever you sit to have a rest it catches you.
To be not a hunt for "THE LAZINESS" do not sit till the end :)
So true
I always find putting a couple of good tunes on a play list helps. Things that keep you motivated. Take a picture of how your room looks when it's clean and tidy, then you can look back on the results before you start the decluttering again of that room! X
Your a life saver! I've been struggling so much I like things clean and tidy I've got 5 kids and one on the way. Thanks for the advice xx
I love my Dyson V6 stick vacuum - I would dread dragging my big vacuum up the stairs. Best money ever spent. Happy to do a quick run around with the Dyson now
I'm definitely not a tidying oracle, but to keep things ticking over we have ONE wash basket, which is the same capacity as our washing machine. When it's full (usually every other day at the mo), take the whole thing downstairs, wash and tumble, fold, take back upstairs, put clothes away, and repeat. I don't separate washing though so that helps!!
Deffo will be (TRYING!!!) to take onboard some of your amazing tips Emily!!
Haha, good luck 'trying'!! Thank you so much for watching xxx
My wash basket IS the washing machine. No extra floor space required.
House of Hutton I'm considering doing this, but doesn't it make your clothes look dingy? Please inform me!!! :-):-):-)
I love how Brits say hoovering vs vacuuming...
I know this is an older video and you probably won’t see this comment, but thank you for reiterating that it’s ok to hire a housekeeper. My husband and I own a business (outside of the home) and work a lot on top of raising our two daughters and keeping up with their busy schedules. I find I’m just having so much more trouble keeping up with deep cleaning. I do pretty go at keeping things picked up and laundry done, but it’s because I only get about 5 hours of sleep a night. I want to hire a housekeeper but I don’t want to feel like a failure or be judged by people.
Love it. I am Polish and most Polish wife's are like you. We love clean houses. Organized, easy to use.
It is nice to get up in the morning and not get ungry becous the house is a mess. Do little every day and the weekend is for the family to enjoy it and work together.
Good work ! I
Totally agree with all of these tips!! Plus that mop is something I've been looking for. We don't have a cleaner because I do secretly enjoy cleaning! X
Fantastic tips Emily! OMG the shoe cupboard - I so need that in my life! X
Haha Chhaya, money well spent, we love it!! Thank you so much for watching xxx
I don't have stairs in my house.
I got a price of $8,000 to do that in my house. I’ve wanted it for ages... but $8,000? Yikes.
@@Twinkie989 pretty sure with a bit of handy work you should be able to make it yourself for pretty cheap
Love it... I'm a culprit of sitting down with a intention to clean afterwards but you can guess how that goes. Thanks for sharing this housework tips. People ought to know keeping a clean home is WORK just like any other.
Wow I'm so happy I found your channel. I also have 3 kids under 6. We just moved to a new home and barely have anything. We will slowly buy things. I love your videos.
Blessings from California
I love organizing our home but just a little bit tiny home to put all our stuff but still doing well ❤️ , why some people dislikes this video 😉 😅
😂 😂 😂 I don't have kids yet even... I just laughed at "don't sit down" I'm laying down😂😂😂. I think I'm going to go clean now🤔
Hats off to you. 3 kids and you still manage to keep the house so clean and make CZcams videos!!
I've watched this video twice, yes I enjoy watching cleaning videos. It's just so satisfying! Thank you for the useful tips.
Hi, new subbie from Germany🇩🇪! Nice home, great vid. Looking forward for more.
I’m a year late, but I’m sick right now and I love cleaning so on sick days I watch cleaning videos!
Amazing!!! I just found my twin! 😊 I thought I had OCD until now. But is really pleasing to know that staying clean and tidy with a bit of effort actually makes you feel better. It is exactly what I do every day. Well done!🥇
Thank you for the tips! I like how you voice over, since I can’t always watch, but I like to listen while cleaning.
I LOVE the Marie Kondo way of folding, I saw it in another organising video on CZcams and it is such a game changer, I could drool at my drawers now!
I saw it on Clean My Space, I think you would love their channel
I have heard of it but never looked, I am going to have a look right now!! Thank you so much for watching xxx
I'll click the Dyson v6 product link in your video description. Thanks for it bc I've appreciated your video of digestible changes delivered to me, in a quick manner. Your energy transmits grace.& I received it as "Oh yes I can." So forward I go energized to action to see results of my doing w an uplifted outlook. I pray that you attend to self-care. You are a bearer of blessing, & you enjoy it, I believe, so say, "That won't work for me" if a "No" wouldn't be received. Guard your soul first before all you do as a conduit of blessing, please.
Wonderful guidelines to make life better GOD bless you
Love this!!!!! I have like literally every one of these issues with our family! And, I need to get these handy products, Ty for the links!
I just watched your video and loved it. Please put more of them up as your family is so sweet to watch. Thank you....
I've got so much housework to do tomorrow so I'm going to re-watch this video tomorrow for imspiration :) I love your videos Emily xx
Yay - so glad you like it xx
hi
What a beautiful young woman. My mother in law told me that as long as my bed was made and the dishes were done, I was halfway there. She was right, managing a career and a home got hectic, but having a clean sink and a made bed always made any other mess seem manageable.
Thanks so much for this video! I'm the cleaner of my house. A husband, roommate and two dogs.Its a lot to handle. Tips have really helped! Thanks!
I had to laugh when you were talking about 'hoovering'. I knew what you meant because Hoover is a brand name of vacuums, but I've never heard it called that.
Here in the states, it's just called 'vacuuming'. 😉
It's always interesting to learn about the terms used in other countries.
"The Pound Shop" meaning "The Dollar Store" (here in the USA) was pretty amusing as well.
😲 OMG!!! WHere have u been all my life..
I thought only i would do alot of the routine u do..
I once thought i was crazy or cleanaholic😂
Me too
I think the tips you have given are brilliant and if I do every single one of them consistently, the mess will never get out of hand and I won't feel defeated and overwhelmed again. Thank you for sharing.
We are doing a major clean out, we always go through toys and cloths, however my daughter is 10 and due to autism has a problem with letting go of certain fav items. So, we are getting to a new stage so it is time to restructure and reorganize, now we have prepared her for this for 3 yrs. we give old toys and cloths every 3-6 moths moths, but this is every closet and room. Furniture and all, it is so great to see the hard work pay off not only in the house, but help her understand hoarding skills, and letting go, even our fav, to others, less fortunate, that will have years of use out of them. Great video and inspiring and I love that we use the dollar store and you use the pound, never thought about other countries having them. Your home looks great and I was so glad to see you getting your children involved!
Your kids drawers are seriously goals! geez, I need to get my kids clothing organization in check! lol
The Jackson Hive yes I might try that with the drawers - never seen anything like that before!!
The Jackson Hive mind
I just subscribed and turned on the notification button BTW I love this video
I love your routine! Though I'm struggling to do home business and cleaning at the same time, your video inspires me so.
Really great tips, thank you. I will be looking into getting that floor mop! Love the ending where your son kept peering up at the camera while unloading the dishwasher! ☺️ 💛
I'd clean daily if I had a house this good
Swagger You can only have a house this good if you clean it daily. Reminds you of chicken and egg situation, doesn’t it?
No matter where you live, you deserve the best you can do for yourself. A well kept cottage is superior to a filthy mansion.
A Masion 👍
Loved this video and your house so I have subscribed! It's so nice to see realistic houses and I love your British I am definitely making a trip to poundland soon!
I miss poundland so much, I’ve had all of these same exact containers, they where extremely useful when I lived in the Uk, but now that I’m back in Switzerland I don’t have them and here they sell them but they are expensive AF. I used to store everything in order, make up, hair products, nail products etc they are a perfect solution
I do the same exact thing so I get to enjoy my clean home I can’t stand when it’s messy.
Great video!
My favourite tip: don't sit down! 😅In my case it would be: don't stay in the warm bed too long on Sunday, go to the gym (ok, not about cleaning, just about being hard-working like YOU ARE!)
Haha Julia. Thank you so much for watching xxx
Haha I like to stay in a warm bed. Who cares about cleaning, it never ends, there is never lack of it, so I won't miss a thing if I just rest😂And yes I need to invite those fairies 😂😂I like to clean, but sometimes I wish I hire a housekeeper instead😍😍😍Great video!!!Makes me want to clean something. I always fight with clutter. In tiny spaces everything is clutter, and there is always more to get rid off. And after a while I need the stuff that I got rid off😂😂😂
Who else is reading the comments while watching the video?😂✌🏽
Me. 😄😄
melissa seemongal lol me

Me hello!
Mee lol
Rewatching all of my faves of your videos starting with this cannot wait, Hello from Scotland 🏴 xxx
I love this...only have one child and I struggle sometimes keeping up with my jobs.. Thank you Emily
Why can't we all just be Emily! Favourite person on CZcams you deserve more subscribers!
Ah so sweet of you to say. Thank you so much for watching xxx
M g
Absolutely wonderful person!
The best family and home ❤️
I think it's really sad when you can't clean your own house on a regular basis you made the mess so you clean your best Amen to that
I am well impressed, I’ve subscribed straight away, brilliant!!
thank god a lady who cleans normally and is nice aswell and not banging on about her nails all the time im subscribed now love your channel
Nice tips. Mine is get help. When I see that I'm not gonna get everything done, I ask help from my Mum. She looks after the kids while I run all around and work. But it wasn't easy for me to ask. I'm kind of person that want to do everything on my own. And you can't do that always. And another tip is: wait till the kids get older. House can't look like no one is living in it. Anyway, love your videos...
That's so nice that she helps you out! xx
I grew up in a house where you can't even touch a furniture or sit on the chair. I have a beautiful piano ( I went to music school) which I have to open with wearing gloves. Everything was picturesque perfect like in a pharmacy. That's not life!
House can't look like no-one is living in it 👍👍👍
@@ludastout2852 that is definitely not life. Things are there for us to use not the other way, slaving away to preserve "things"
Lol my kids are older and still have to fight with them to help me clean up 🧽🧼🧻Lol .So it not always easy when they are grown up lol 😂😂😂😂
Me: “Oh wow that’s such an incredibly clever idea to use the storage underneath the staircase”My brain: “You don’t even have a staircase in your house, idiot”Me: :’(
Ok that's nothing💤
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
Wow, I have a 4 bedroom and it's hard cleaning with a broom and mop 😣 I'd love to get the appliances you use to clean yours looks way better and faster lol 💖 I love the way you do it. I could alot of help especially with decluttering kids bedrooms with all the toys they don't play with and also decluttering closents. This is the first video of yours I have seen and I loved it.
Quick & to the point. I LOVE the drawer idea. I'm starting that tomorrow.....Thanks
My tip is normally watch Emily Norris on CZcams - she has great tips! 😁
haha thanks Carly. Thank you so much for watching xxx
sound like great ideas. I will try them
I think these are awesome tips. I have 3 boys and work full time. But I think your tips will help me!
I LOVED THIS video! I don't even have my own family yet but definitely this helps either way.
I love to Clean at night when everybody sleeping
Me too.
I used to do that too when my Daughter was younger. Now it s harder, I have a new born and my toddler gives hard time to sleep 😭😭😭😭😭.
Omg me too. It seems more relaxing lol.
Please visit my channel eat Well Live Well by Hira Azeem
Yeah my only problem with that is it can get loud and wake ppl up
You did it all in a very short video. Great job! Thanks!
This is the best video on all of youtube. I've watched it twice now and probably will watch it a few more times too.
I really like how you manage your day with the cleaning routine.
I will try that too. This seems work!!
Some great tips! I've sat down to watch your video so now I don't want to get back up again 🙈😂. Xx
Haha sounds like you're not the first!! Thank you so much for watching xxx
Emily Norris rhrhhrhjegeGgghrhrgghrjejehrhhrjejrh
You should get up and not sit back down again.
My Happy Ever After xl
Hahaha me 2
Your cleaning videos are my favourite 👌 they just make me want to get up and gut the full house out 😂
Thanks so much Becca xx
Yup 😂
I love this video! You are really a well organizer! And a well organizer save lots of time on house work! I do almost the same as you, I like to clean the kitchen before going to bed, then I am always happy waking up and to see a clean house .I cannot sit down before the cleaning is done!
I absolutely love cleaning, decluttered many years ago, makes it so much easier to get straight into the cleaning. I clean for 3 hours. I clean the entire room every time I clean. I start in one room and go from room to room, as the entire room gets done then there’s never any dust etc. I just pick up where I left off previously. I love cleaning products and having the house smell clean and fresh.
I always pull back my sheets and open my windows for an hour before making my bed.
