Personal assistant

No, I don’t promote this role, but it fell on me when lockdown happened. Schools went online and whats app became classrooms. After joining a WhatsApp group for mothers, I found myself managing every aspect of my daughter’s schoolwork. But this is no way to equip someone for the future, I agree with this. With two school-going boys, when the school came online, I was flooded with messages. Kids were clueless on how to manage.

Check this personal assistant designed by a mom. Not just homework management moms are also appointment makers, event planners, task managers. There are lots of apps too that help you assist in this job.

    My daughter is almost 12 years now, so I have made her my personal assistant. Also, she loves to cook so she prepares her own breakfast and helped me a lot in the kitchen during lockdown. Also, she has loads of comments on my dressing style so she has started styling me.

  10. I guess every one of us can relate to it perfectly!! With the new normal on the go, the moms have taken up this role too. And it was as hard to accept for a stay-at-home mom as for a working mom. But then, we are super mommies you know!! Took up the challenge and whoo!!
