I also clean the dishwasher monthly and at the very least quarterly. The interiors don’t typically get such a thorough cleaning on a monthly basis, but I like to wipe or vacuum out crumbs and dust as needed and definitely in February for the Monthly Focus (keep reading for more on that). I also include wiping cabinet fronts with this task, monthly, or as needed.

You can find the full list of Rotating Tasks and the Complete Monthly Focus in the Guide to a Clean Home, Homekeeping Planner, or Homekeeping Society We add these deep cleaning tasks to our Catch-All Friday or on a day that works best for you.
After you’ve successfully implemented the Daily + Weekly Tasks, it’s time to learn The Rotating Tasks and Monthly Focus. I do these on Fridays or when it makes sense with a Weekly Task. The Clean Mama Routine also includes Rotating Tasks (deep cleaning tasks that you work through during the year). Weekly – wipe out refrigerator while meal planning – I typically do this on Fridays (Catch-All Day) Here’s a post with more info on how I split these tasks up and work them into my week because we all know that vacuuming and washing floors can be time consuming and exhausting. Weekly: – Vacuum floor (Wednesday) Wash Floor (Thursday) – these Weekly Tasks apply to the kitchen as well. It’s proactive, not reactive – the busier you are, the better it works. Once you get those down, the Weekly Tasks just become part of your routine and make things so much easier because you no longer need to decide what the worst part of your house is to clean, you just do the Tasks for the day. Don’t worry about perfection, you’re adding a new routine to your days and it will take time. If this feels like a lot, start with the Daily Tasks, add one a week. In addition to the 5 Daily Tasks, there are Weekly Tasks – these are tasks that are associated with the days of the week. This help out a lot! Every once in a while if I’m feeling burned out on dishes or in an extra busy season, I’ll grab a pack of eco-friendly disposable plates and use them for a couple days while we get back on track. To help us get started off on the right foot I unload the dishwasher when I’m brewing my morning coffee and I’m working with the kids to get in the habit of putting their dishes in the dishwasher right away after each meal. It can be discouraging to make a delicious meal and want to sit down and relax but still have dishes to wash and/or load in the dishwasher. The kids help load/unload, we hand wash large pots and pans but I do try to put most pots and pans in the dishwasher or quickly wash them after meals. What about dishes and the dishwasher? This is a Daily Task (most days, it’s multiple times a day). This gives me a little jump on cleaning up the kitchen after dinner and keeps it easy for clean up and keeps the stuck on food spills away. These tasks sprinkled through the day and during meal time/prep/clean up keep the kitchen pretty clean.Īnother little thing that falls under the Daily Task of Wipe Counters, is that I keep a damp bar mop towel by the stove (on the counter) for wiping up little drips and spilhls as I cook. Here’s my DIY Wood Kitchen Table Spray recipe – I love it for keeping our kitchen table clean.

That’s why I started trying to figure out a cleaning routine 20+ years ago – I was sick of spending my day off cleaning. I’ve found that this is the best and easiest way to keep a kitchen (and home) clean. I’m going to break down all the little things I do to clean the kitchen and keep it clean most of the time, all the time. Have you wondered this too? This is a question that’s frequently asked on Instagram and by email. A question I receive at least weekly is, “How do you clean the kitchen with the Clean Mama Routine? I don’t see ‘kitchen’ on the calendar?” The kitchen is the hardest working room in the home and requires a lot of daily cleaning and upkeep.
