the
SELF CLEANING HOUSE Written by Elizabeth May
Is the self-cleaning house the unicorn
of mothers of toddlers everywhere? Is it a myth made by wishes and dreams of parents of messy teens and wives of well meaning men who just cannot seem to get those socks all the way to the hamper? Or can it be true? What if a house could be transformed into a seemingly “self-cleaning house”? I have made it my mission over the last thirty plus years to do just that. As a wife, mother of four and a daycare provider, I was stretched, stressed, frustrated and tired. I wanted a clean home without nagging my husband and children and being cranky about it. I was spending all my time doing never-ending chores and did not get to enjoy my family. I knew there had to be a better way.
