New subscriber here! I just wanted to say that I got slightly emotional watching this, because I grew up in a home that was not taken care of like this and it has really impacted me into adulthood. You're giving your children such a wonderful example and a calming space to grow up.

Same!

Another good hack I learned was from Emily Norris and it's the "one touch" and essentially it's putting something away where it goes the first time instead having to touch it again and put it away later

I clean everyday so easy. My husband grocery shops and cooks. He has done this for almost 40 years. When we worked he cooked and I cleaned up after. Always team love ❤️

My wife and I are expecting our first baby and I have been getting so much information and tips from you guys in preparation for our sons arrival.

I follow the "if it will only take you 1 min or less then do it now" rule. Its helps me so much bc instead of letting things pile up I am usually just constantly keeping up with the house and it doesn't get overwhelming

Your first hack reminds me of Little House on the Prairie. Ma has a schedule that's like, "wash on Monday, iron on Tuesday," and so on. Each day has its own chore.

I struggled putting the laundry away too. Then I stopped folding half of them.. children's clothes, cleaning supplies, hand towels. Life changing 👌 one of many great tips from the secret slob

I watch the secret slob too! Found her when I was looking up YT videos of the fly lady method.

I try to clean my kitchen every evening at least and it makes such a difference. I get up early most days because my child wakes up around 5-6 and coming down to a clean kitchen makes everything much easier.

I started the no fold laundry method 2 years ago for my kids and it’s been a game changer. They have a dresser with dividers and I just lay them on top of each other, shirts, pants, shorts etc. stress free and quick!

Hahaha for me the opposite has helped me stay on top of decluttering the clothes we don't need and are not used and just making space work better without having to fight it. Literally my favourite quiet times whilst i listen to a podcast folding clothes and she plays with her bedroom activities or animals.

I have been procrastinating my cleaning all day it’s now 1pm. But your KZread video, actually gave me some inspiration… I keep most my house clean as I like neat stuff but Monday and Tuesday is my “ deep clean days” so guess I’ll be getting going now . Thanx girl

The weekly cleaning rotation I came up with on my own is almost identical to yours! I do the same tasks on the same days as you, except I vacuum and mop downstairs on Tuesdays and then do the same upstairs on Wednesdays. We're expecting baby number 1 in October - glad to know this routine is sustainable for you with kiddos!

As a new mom to a two month old I’d say give yourself grace to not get everything done. I’ve found making a list of 3 things each day (even small like getting dressed) helps so much to feel like I’ve done something besides breastfeed all day lol Good luck, you’re going to be a great mom!

Delilah are you in my home?! After a week of being sick, this is what I needed! You seem to kind of always read my mind on what I need to watch!

Okay that editing when you put the condiments back in the fridge was 👌 I saw that fun little detail! Such a good video with good tips! I’m definitely going to start implementing this into my life.

I’ve been watching you for about two years now, I’m so happy to finally take your parenting technique and put it towards my family because I just found out I’m pregnant! I’m so happy that God blessed me with a little miracle. God bless your family and please continue making videos I love them so much

Watching with my 4 year old… She says “Wow! She’s reallyyyyy amazing and fast at cleaning! Look at her go!” 😂

This is exactly how we do chores in our home. I have an almost 4 year old and almost 2 year old as well as me being due with our third baby this Fall. There are some chores we do several times a week like vacuuming because we have a lot of carpet. I do my laundry the same exact way too! Not grocery shopping on weekends has improved family time on weekends as well so I’ve switched to strictly grocery shopping during the week. In addition to daily/weekly tasks, I have a list of tasks that need to be done 1x per month and 2x per month. And I can squeeze them in whenever I please. I try to declutter one space per week in my home to cut down on clutter.

Yyour tactic for the different loads of laundry makes so much sense, Thanks for sharing that, I think I'll try something similar. I love the idea of doing a load a day, but I have not yet implemented that fully, and as a family of 5 our house get's crazy haha. Love your vlogs so much!

You look absolutely stunning with your hair back like that!

Delilah, this is so helpful. thank you for sharing your tips! i didn’t really grow up in a home where i had great homemaking examples. so seeing how you take care of your home through the week so that it’s not overwhelming is SO SO helpful. i hope you all have a great weekend!

I love this so much!! Right now I live in a very very messy home since I started renovating some things, I live on my own so it isn't a big deal, although sometimes it is overwhelming... but seeing this video made me feel that at some point I am going to be able to be that person that managed to clean a little bit every day, and it is ok if it isn't right now 💕 thank you 💕

What an awesome vlog. I really do like how you handle all your chores and family life. You took a lot of pressure from me that I don't have to be perfect and still can lead a good life. Thank you Delilah.

Yessssss I love your content and I love “clean with me videos”! This is perfection!

I have been following your channel for many years now and your editing style has developed so much, it is mindblowing. I loved everything about this video, well done!!!!

You need a powerful range hood that vents to outside! The steam and particulates from cooking (especially oil) are bad for your lungs and the steam can lead to mould in the house. Trust me on this

11:15 right before you say "Did you get stuck?" it sounded like William said "Help!" Did anybody else hear that? So cute!! :)

We clean like this too and with multiple kids breaking up the cleaning is so helpful! I also clean as I go for little things. The only difference is I vacuum at least 2 times a day because we have a golden retriever 😁

I remember thinking to myself-when you would mention that Saturday was your cleaning day-that the fly lady method would benefit you just as much as it was helping me get on top of maintaining a clean home without feeling overwhelmed. So glad you and Zack found a method that works for the family ❤️

I’m from Ireland 🇮🇪 ..I love your channel and your style of home . l love your style of parenting . I have triplets two and a four year old all girls and it is overwhelming xx

You motivated me to clean the fridge despite a rough night with the baby and I feel so much better for it!

I looove the way you run your household, it’s definitely the way I plan on running mine as I want 4 babies too ❤i’ve learned so much in the last 3 months from watching your channel than in a year of watching random influencers and celeb gossip vids. Thank you for all you do👏🏽

I literally just went on KZread thinking, I need to find a good clean with me video. And this was the first video on my feed 👌🏼🤩

I know I've asked for this multiple times! Thanks for sharing! 😊

I just love your style of your decor and house so much!

You've mentioned that you do this in videos before, so I actually have been practicing this ever since, AND IT GAVE ME MY WEEKENDS BACK!!! Such a simple concept, but it has been a game changer. Thank you for sharing this nugget of wisdom 🤗💕

To help you, I suggest you only have ONE area for toys. I see you have some toys in the adult room, which makes you have to pick up toys and clean three areas (their bedroom, family room and play room) instead of one. Think about the possibility of having toys only in the playroom and with the rule of toys not leaving that room. It gets way easier for you!

I think you are referring to the Flylady-System. I wish I could do it like this. But as a working mom I am away from home from 6 to 6 usually and when my husband is at home with the kids alone he just cannot to it all. So yeas, we often have to power clean.

Beautiful family in a tidy house, let me tell you Delilah: YOU ARE A SUCCESSFUL BUSINESS WOMAN!

What you explained in the intro is almost word by word what we tried to figure out with my family last weekend after spending all Saturday cleaning instead of spending time outside:):)

You really make your house a home!

Thank you for sharing this! I have a question and maybe a compliment in one: Your kids are so content with you doing things around them, and I know you involve them in a lot that you do.. but do you ever feel guilty when you are doing something next to them, and how do you cope with it? I struggle with balancing doing things with my kids and next to them or while they do other things (even though they seem content with me doing so!) I hope my question makes sense! Love your videos, and thank you for the motivation! It’s 6 pm here, and you gave me the energy to finally make my bed!

Perfect timing ... God bless u and ur family ❤❤

Hey for stains why not try savon de Marseille. I found it works best. There are two ways i would use it either dampen the stain and rub the soap or because i have diy-ed an all-purpose cleaner from grated soap and water in a spray bottle i will just spray the stain area (this is even more time efficient) i find that i don't have to scrub just let it sit for a bit and toss one the washing machine. The soap worked like a charm on a stains that i had on for like a year on a cotton table cloth that even vanish and oxy bleaches did not take out and also on baby clothes and greasy stains from cooking. I use the grated soap for pretty much every cleaning task - from hobs to floors and i feel it is better than most things you can get in the shops. Also as the soap is so natural usually made from a few ingredients there are no artificial chemical smells just clean surfaces :)

This was such a helpful and satisfying video. Thank you for taking time to just take time and share helpful videos and make us beautiful content. I n on now it’s your job but I appreciate it so much💜

Watching/listening whilst baking for my momma's birthday tomorrow ☺️

Loved the video Delilah!!! can you do a review of your vacuumm?? it would be so helpful!! thanks xoxo

Oh my gosh, this was perfectly timed! My in laws are flying to Norway from the U.S and we are trying to get everything clean before then :)

Thank you so much for sharing. My teenager thinks it's awesome so I may get some help cleaning! You're a lifesaver!

Very much enjoyed this video! Good job!

I loved this one so much I'm watching it twice in a row.

Rewatching this gem to try and better prepare for the change of season. Just wondering if you have any tips for winter stain removal. You mentioned leaving tough stain out in the sun but the snow is coming sooner than I would like and wondered if you did something differently or still put stained clothes outside? Thanks always for your amazing content!

Hahaha i don't do anything like this and especially not during the pregnancy until this final month of nesting, however, i also appreciate Milena for making 'close the kitchen' a part of our bedtime routine. My toddler literally says time to close the kitchen and says goodnight to each room as we go upstairs to the bathroom and then bedroom. Its funny that there's basically a whole other channel i get to binge watch with similar content but all fresh and from another environment and a whole bunch of unique kids to inspire me through this new phase in life.

love your editing around 22:35!

Saturdays were always our cleaning day when I was growing up too.

Loved it!! ❤❤

Can you please link the Farmer's stain stick you mentioned? Thank you! 😊

Love cleaning videos! Nice to watch other mamas hard at work like me.

did you just start doing it or did you do one big clean prep day and then go into this as a way to maintain? wanting to incorporate this somehow into our busy lives even though we both work long shifts outside the home everyday. and I loved the multiple you's cleaning at once, that is so cool to watch and makes me wish I had that option lol

I would LOVE to know which under rug mats you use! They look really nice.

Fabulous idea for a Friday video. Even though I did not get time to watch until Saturday evening. Our basement bathroom rarely gets used too but somehow every time I do go to clean it it's filthy.

What was the link to the stain stick? I’m not seeing it in the description. Thanks! 😊

That’s the great thing about thrifting clothes.. don’t have to worry about colors bleeding (for the most part)

Do you use multipurpose cleaner on the walls & doors? I was debating if I needed to use wood cleaner on doors… I’m trying to chore block now too bc it does add up. My toddler loves to help me clean but never wants to pick up his toys alone 😅

Hey D! do you have the link from the olivenbaum behind you in the beginning of the video???

a good hack for spinach is to put a napkin in the little plastic bin!! i tried it out a little while ago and my spinach stayed good for like 2 weeks in the fridge

Can you link the natural stain stick you use?

I'm sure you have mentioned this before but, what is the name of the color/brand of paint you have painted your interior doors? Love your videos. God bless!

A hack, tip I have is if your leaving a room take something with you that belongs elsewhere, same as going upstairs

This sounds like the "Clean Mama" cleaning routine. I use it as well. Life altering lol. Fly lady was far too complicated for my life

The music at 20 min mark sounds like they are saying "Delilah" 😄

Sounds a bit like the FlyLady cleaning system! (:

You can make your own! That's what I started doing when I had my son a year and half ago - just equal parts vinegar and distilled water (distilled water means no streaks on glass or appliances) and then a few drops of whatever essential oil I'm feeling. It works so dang good and is so cheap. Just pop it in a pretty amber glass bottle and you're good-to-go. ;)

I have questions. 1. what did you put on your fruit to wash them? 2. What is that circle on the underside of your toilet seat?

Could you share your cloth diaper routine?

What do you use for your bathroom spray cleaner?

Thank you for showing your mess. I have one child but as a single parent it’s so hard to keep things clean all the time 🥲

I clean houses for a living and i have found out with my own house gets dirty about 3 days later. My kids have moved out of the nest but i raise 2 grand kids 5 and 9 and they are very different from my kids my, my kids did not really bring there toys in the living rooms but my grand kids bring everything out after 4 years of that i said no toys in my front room only in the den and when your done put them away or there mine. With young kids like yours that is heard to do. With a house you do need to clean every day

Is your multipurpose spray Home made? If yes do you have the recipe?❤️

There are some soaps that are fruit/veggie-wash friendly (and mostly are even biodegradable), I have one from the brand Dr. Bronner but I don't know which one Delilah is using. It helps to get rid of all the germs and other stuff on the fruit/veggie, especially if you shop plastic free and you don't know who has touched the fruit/veggies before you

Me "what is that mop contraption!? She must have linked it...(30 seconds later) this is the most real video I've ever watched with missing one day of cleaning and it looks like a toy bomb went off " LOL

Random question: What did you wash the fruit with?

I just noticed your under-sink waste receptacles- where did they come from?
