Day in the Life of a Japanese Working Mom
A day in the life of a Japanese working mother of 2 children living in Tokyo Japan. This is the life of a Typical Japanese family living in Tokyo Japan with both parents working. Hifumi, 27 years old, works in Tokyo and runs her own churro shop while taking care of her 2 Japanese kids. The 2 Tokyo kids usually go to the nursery around 8:30 on weekdays so mornings are usually chaotic on top of her regular work schedule which starts shortly after she drops them off and continues until the afternoon, then she has to juggle the 2 kids schedules picking them up at separate times usually between 3-4 to also shuttle them separately to one of their many extracurricular activities and to finally bring them home just in time for dinner, but since today is a weekend there’s a slower pace to things, nonetheless Hifumi still has to balance some of her work today, while also taking care of her kids. She actually took several years off of work after giving birth, as she struggled mentally to take care of them on her own, while her husband worked to support the family financially. In Japan, it’s common enough for women to completely handle the child rearing responsibilities, that the term, one ope was coined, meaning one parent operation. But ultimately she decided being a Japanese housewife wasn’t for her and eagerly took a production job and eventually started her own business. Being a working mom in Japan isn’t easy, but she definitely prefers being a business owner compared to working at job for some else like when she worked in production. Now, she’s able to better manage and dictate her schedule so she can be flexible for her kids activities. Today, we'll see how this working Japanese mother manages her time between work, home and kids.

She’s such a great mom. Balancing work life with parental duties. And her method of “zoning out” and not reacting to the kids’ temper tantrums or breaking things is actually really good. Like she said, “you can’t rewind it.” You can only move forward. They’re still young and don’t know better, and they are still learning how to communicate their wants and needs. By seeing their mom, being calm and gentle, she is displaying proper behavior that they will learn as they get older.

Completely agree! Something I saw recently that I loved, and will take to heart was "Whenever I'm having a tough parenting day, I like to pretend I've traveled from the future to spend just one more day with my baby. It always helps me gain perspective." It definitely helps to remind ourselves that these are the days we'll miss dearly when our kids are grown up and living their own lives. Best of luck on your journey, from one dad to another. :)

I think you're right. My mother used to tell me how I ruined her life and I was the same shit of a person as my father, who used to beat her and me. I really remember that she always said those kind of things even now that I'm 30. I agree with you that kids are really sensitive to verbal stimuli and how they can take the words that a significant adult says to heart. I'm sorry about my english, it's not my main language.
I relate to this video so much as I am also a 27-year-old mom of 2 working full-time and taking care of my kids full-time! The term for “one-parent operation” really hit hard for me as I didnt realize how common it is for all the household work to fall on moms’ shoulders. Shout out to hardworking moms around the world, getting it all done with grace and dedication❤️

That usually ends up with kids trying to hid the mess or not owing up to making it and later on when they're teens not feeling comfortable with telling their parents about things they do and need help fixing even bigger messes. When my kids were little and spilled stuff, the most they'd get was a sigh and "Go get a towel and clean it up please. You need to be more careful next time." (One of our three house rules is "If you make a mess, clean it up." I'd help them clean up messes when they were little and now that they're teens, it's automatic) One of my friends told me once, "You're so CALM! I'd be screaming at them!" They're little. They're still learning. Accidents happen. Even adults spill stuff! As long as they clean up their mess and no one was hurt, we're good.
She is such an amazing mom and business owner. I love the child rearing method she's doing. While its difficult in the moment, by not yelling, she's teaching her kids by example how to handle stressful situations. The kids also feel more comfortable turning to her if they have trouble. I remember growing up that my parents would yell at me whenever I made a mistake, it got to the point that I became scared even turning to them when I needed help because I didn't want to get yelled at. The fact that she's balancing being a mom with being a business owner with two stores opened is incredible. Also round of applause to both her and her husband who sharing chores and duties in the home.
She seems like such an amazing, hardworking mom! But I have to say, this is some of the best birth control ever. I was stressed watching this 😩
She is impressive. The job title of "mother" is no doubt the hardest and on top of that she is also a "business owner". I have nothing but the highest respect for her.

I like how she's raising her kids to be independent but in a good way. Can watch what they want. Takes time with them, doesn't yell and lets them help clean it up.
Surprisingly, this has been the one channel that has better illustrated what an undertaking it is to start a family and making me appreciate what it does to your life, you really stop living for yourself and more for your kids literally. I think the one with your wife and kid was also just as exhausting and entertaining (and enlightening) as this one. Respect to her! She's doing a great job and her babies love her!

Oh my gosh that is EXHAUSTING. Many thanks to her for letting us join in her day!
Paolo, sooo much of this is familiar to me. Well, in my case the dad version. But my wife wasn’t home that often due to her work schedule (big Japanese company) so I had the highly memorable experience juggling a full time job and being primary caregiver for 2 small children at the same time. I know it’s usually mom’s doing this so my own experience gave me so much respect for them. One image that hit me was her just getting (or making) food for her kids and then eating the leftovers. Been there. Good times. 😅
In awe of Hifumi’s patience and work ethic. Great video, Paolo!
She is amazing. I love her attitude and outlook. I also like how she expresses how it is hard because she does get frustrated sometimes but she tries her best not to take it out her kids. And also remind her kids how much she loves them in care for them.
Mums deserve the world whether the work or not they deserve everything life can offer. We love and appreciate you mums
This is an eye opener. I’ve seen it all. I love how deep you get with working moms, kids, how they work and are the roles between a married couple work. Honestly I’m learning so much about the culture in Japan and how life is.
Next time, can we see a more realistic working family? This family are not an average economic representation- they are quite wealthy (own a car, large house, a seperate room for designer clothing and accessories) and her job is a side venture rather than a financial requirement for the family. Please do a video on a real working family, on a working day. How do they cope with time management? The housework? Their mainstream job and long hours and how much time is spent with their kids?
More of DITL like these please! As a mom myself, seeing how gracefully she manages the “chaos” of juggling so many things at once, it really inspires me🫰🏼
This woman is amazing. Not only she is a hard worker and balances work and family life, but she's also a mom that teaches her kids it's okay to do a mistake, as long as you gather your mess later. When I was a kid I was scolded a lot if I broke something, which in the end caused me to be scared to tell my parents if something happened later. It's heartwarming how much she tells them she loves her kids. May she always be happy!

I think we had similar experience, it doesn't matter how cheap or expensive the item is and of course breaking the things were mistakes but I get yelled at and they get so angry at me like which made me feared everything. There were a few rare occasions that they didn't but otherwise it's always the case. I understood why they did that because they just think if they make me scared etc then I would be more careful or something but they don't realise how this sometimes make it worse for me or how I feared to ever trying t do certain things (moving things around etc).
It is best to let the kids eat at the same table as mom and dad so they get to see what they eat and get curious enough to try it. In her case they let the kids separately which means all they see are food they just want to eat.
Such a wonderful mother. She always makes sure to practice patience, understanding, and reminds her kids how much she loves them. So much praise to her for working so hard at both jobs (her business AND being a mother). ♥️ Thank you Paolo for taking us into a day of Hifumi’s life!
Mad respect for the mother, working while taking care of her children
She gives me to motivation to keep going, especially with my studies! Seeing her work so hard and so many hours each day makes me feel like o should be doing more! She’s amazing honestly
Wow! Hifumi is amazing for not yelling at her kids if she gets frustrated at them. That's definitely quite difficult for any parent. Hifumi is right though about not being able to rewind horrible things that you accidentally say. My mom is a stay at home mom, but she used to work when I was still very young. One of the things she told me is to never be a stay-at-home mom because of how lonely it can be. Finishing the food the kids don't eat, that's actually what my mom used to do with me and my sister. But my sister and I usually did finish the food anyway.
I LOVE HOW MUCH EFFORT YOU PUT INTO EACH AND EVERY SINGLE VIDEO ❤️
I’m glad she takes the time to make sure her kids know she loves them. I remember never being sure when I was their age.
I have 3 kids ages 2 - 8 and this is some very relatable content. Motherhood is the same worldwide that's for sure. Great video!
I really adored this playlist. It's very impressive. I'm from Morocco. I do appreciate ur effort. Showing us life-pattern of Japanese people. I always watch ur videos. I encourage u to keep it up! We love u. Thanks for making such incredible videos!

She is an amazing mum and woman. I salute her for going all her way out to continue with her life and not just be a mum...that's really hard to achieve! She is definitely a role model
Oh this is the most relatable Day In the Life episode for me! Both mom And dad are doing great with their little ones!! What a beautiful family! I hope they can have a well deserved vacation at some point!
Her laugh and smile is contagious 😭❤️ hope her business is super mega successful

I agree!!!! Great series idea indeed!
Love the day in the life videos Paolo, such extravagent, cinematography, storytelling, and execution of each part of the video. You really inspire me man thank you.
A mom that works, takes care of the kids, doesnt get frustrated easily, has style, is incredibly gorgeous....man if i didnt see it id call this a unicorn. That husband won the lottery.
I am so grateful to you for making and showing this day in the life of a working mom. Hifumi is amazing, and so is her family.
She's just amazing! Such emotional maturity and dedication towards her family and her career, hats off 👏
You're channel is one of my all times favs. It brings me great comfort and joy!!! Thanks Paolo
She has an interesting car choice. I never thought I would see a Jeep Wrangler driving in Tokyo. Her car is massive in comparison.
She has the patience of a saint. The older kid would do my head in. If I behaved like that with my mother, I wouldn't be able to sit down for a week
I would never be capable to handle that. So impressed by her
Man, she has so much energy and dedication to her family. That being said, I still find those kids to be very spoiled.

It's super weird seeing kids grow up with phones and tablets. My nieces and nephews got tablets once they turned 2... Now they're glued to them at elementary school age. I don't think these kids are that spoiled outside of the technology they get. Remember it's a weekend holiday in this video so it makes sense for kids to get treats like cheap candy and other outdoor activities. They are needy but they probably don't see their mom or dad much with both them working.

@@nateg5505 It's not about the technology. She never scolds them or tell them they're wrong in any way whatsoever (at least from the video). The girl told her mom that she's too slow and started crying while she was caring for them. Are you kidding with me? They need to be taught whats wrong and right. Things like "ohh they're too young, they don't know better" are complete bs.

I think the line between being too lenient and too strict is very thin. I can't imagine how stressful it must be to be a parent - it's a big responsibility to make sure your child grows into capable adult, but also confident and loving. Too much critique, strictness damages child's spark, personality. Too much of laughing off questionable behaviour and the child will grow spoiled, feeling they deserve everything. I don't want to judge her, but I agree, it rubbed me off the wrong way when the girl was speaking so harshly to her mother (which is strange, since mom is so softspoken - and children tend to mimic behaviours - where did she learn it? maybe the situation is different behind the camera.), or all the tugging. You can see in her eyes she doesn't respect her mom, which is quite sad, since she works so hard.
Love these videos! She is a rock star, I got exhausted just from watching, couldn't imagine doing that every day. What a hard working mom and running her own business too, much respect for her
Thanks for filming this video, Paulo. Kudos! I can relate the exhaustion on mentally and physically as a homemaker as well. By watching her daily routine, it somehow brings a lot of encouragement and comfort in my journey as a mom, knows that the joy and struggle are real, but also rewarding as a parent. Thanks again!
Thank you for making this series, it's amazing and each video gives a new perspective!
She's soooo nice and patient 😊 The husband seems nice too. I hope the kids grow up like them
“You cant rewind what happened” Man she’s an amazing mother
Even though this mum tries to remain calm and please her children by giving them whatever they ask for but this is very risky because it doesn’t seem like there’s much boundaries in her parenting. The children were allowed to watch whatever they want and there is no restrictions on screen time. Her son is 4 years old and she should start finding ways to get him to walk and not carry him when he throws a tantrum.

Hi Paolo. I enjoyed this video. She’s a great mom and did a great job portraying a day in her busy life. Thanks so much for sharing. Keep them coming!😊
Watching this reminds me of how amazing my mom is. She not only took care of all three of us, but worked at a daycare as the supervisor and head. She would leave a bunch of kids and come home to more kids. I'm not sure how she did it.
She should be a head chef or manager of a restaurant or bakery cause she is so hard working even as a mom
This was sooooo good it got me happy, teary eyed and inspired. Good job and many blessings to her family and yourselves. Stay balanced!
I really enjoyed watching this video, thank you, Paolo & Maiko! I always find those videos very motivating! Much love from Germany 🧡
huge respect to this working mom. and Paolo for creating this day in a life from 5:50 am until midnight. I am tired already.
Thanks for creating this video. I'm a working mom too and still struggle to cope with daily chores. This video makes me more motivated somehow. All the best for all moms out there!

Same over here, mama 😉👋 it's a challenge every day
How is everyone raving she's such a good mum? Nit saying she's a bad one, but she's not restricting what they watch. She's gentle and patient, but it doesn't look like she's encouraging independence, her 7 year ols for example should be able to clean hee own feet, and her 4 year old shouldn't really be in a pram anymore. The apartment looks crammed with toys, they have their own ipads... this is just a sneak peak, no way to make judgement of her parenting as a whole. Wouldn't judge anyway, to each their own, but I certainly wouldn't rave she's an amazing mum, just a good old average mum, making good choices here, and bad choices there. Also found it funny she says she's not a good cook, but has a food business...

@@preddyshite6342 Actually, I do have a kid. And fuck me, I get it, it is difficult. And again, not saying she's a bad mum, just not seeing anything out of the ordinary that makes her an amazing mum. She's just same old same old as every single parent pretty much out there, just trying their best, failing here, rocking it there. Until it averages out and we hope we get a decent adjusted adult out of it.
Thanks for a great video to showcase a day in the life of a Japanese Working Mom. The things a mom will do to make their kids feel loved is immeasurable.
She’s so disciplined.
Every 'life in the day' video has made me deeply respect the people starring in them while also appreciate my own relaxed life more, but this one has got to take the cake. I'm the same age and probably could not handle it as graciously as she did, mad respect
Her kids are soooo lucky to have her as a Mom🔥🔥🔥
OMG she has a full day indeed. Love the way she maintain the calm in all situations. I really like the "new" motion design on the intro!!! Keep improving.
She’s a strong Mom. I loved you featured her and her family. She’s inspiring ♥️
I really appreciate the effort that this mom is making for her family! I’m a mom too and raising kids and work is not easy. So I definitely 👍🏻 appreciate her.
She’s amazing! A wife, a mother and an entrepreneur! I hope that she, her family and her business continue to be successful!
Yo I'm loving this mom's style... she's trendy, her kids are well adjusted and overall she looks happy! I'm living for this Millennial Mom :)
What a wonderful mother. She is so patient & loving.
It's awesome to see a mother running her own business, have her own website and studying, I'm glad she is able to leave her job so she can have a more flexible schedule. Sadly not many jobs nowadays are flexible for working parents, there really needs to be more flexible jobs for working parents so they can pick up their kids and spend more time with kids. I like the mother's outfit style and how neat the home is. She's a hard worker, she is doing a great job. And I hope the father is doing well and that he's able to spend some time with his kids if he has free time after work. The kids studying math and Japanese is awesome. Overall a busy and hardworking family, I admire them.
Yay! My favorite series! Love it so much I'm always re-watching 😊
She is amazing. I love her house. It's so cute. What a good mom she is and what a lovely life she has. God bless her
