- In this video I tackle the HUGE mess that is my boys bedroom. I focus on getting the floor cleared, putting everything back into its rightful place and then shampooing the filthy carpets. I really hope you enjoy!

Your channel popped up on my feed and I'm so grateful! You are literally saving my sanity. I am a 57 year old grandmother in the US and I'm raising my 4 year old grandson. I work from home but I'm locked down to my desk on a headset all day so I can't clean during work hours. And then I want to just snuggle him and play after work. My housework really suffers to the point of embarrassment! Thank you for your videos!!!
You are literally a diamond helping all us overwhelmed moms keep up with life and feel normal ❤
🥺❤️
Yes I watch one of your videos for the first time yesterday. I am a single mother of a 4 year boy with no help I do everything alone. When you speaking about how you felt about mental health and eating drinking soda. I was like oh my goodness she is taking the words out of my mouth this is me. I am glad I am not alone. ❤
Agreed! I am psyching myself up to do an entire household clean & purge. Every time I think of it, I get severe anxiety. Knowing that others struggle like I do and can still achieve their goals gives me hope. Thank you!
I could listen to speak all day. I am from United States 🇺🇸 and I love her accent and different sayings for things. So interesting.
Yes! We love you!
I just want to let you know how fantastic you are. It’s so refreshing to see a normal person cleaning her home and also speaking her truth to help others.
It’s not perfect people in perfect homes pretending to clean… all with perfect make up, hair, nails, and filters!!!
If anyone says a bad word about you, they are very sad individuals.
I needed this today.
Well done you!
You are quite literally just exactly what I needed to hear 🙏😀xxx
There’s nothing I hate more than watching people clean their picture perfect already clean homes. I love your videos they actually motivate me and make me feel normal !!
I just found your channel and cried to my husband that i found someone online like me. You are so real and have a wonderful outlook that brightened my day! Thank you ❤
Hello again.
I've heard of parents storing toys and only having one or two boxes accessible. Then the tubs are rotated. That way you don't have to get rid of so much.
I just binge watched all of your full videos! How I didn't know about them beyond me! I can't thank you enough for putting your raw, unapologetic, beautiful life out there for everyone to see and be a part of! I enjoy your shorts and full videos so much! I've watched so many others and you just don't get the real deal from some. I like real people. Not someone who portrays a certain persona for the camera. I love your authenticity! I'm a firm believer in being who you are no matter who likes it. I can't be around all that fake! So you are a breath of fresh air! I can relate to everything you post on such a personal level. I suffer from extreme mental health, body issues, whether I'm good enough, etc. There are days I go hard on cleaning house and there are days I just give the floors a vacuum and the counters a wipe down. Some days I literally have to drag myself to do anything at all... especially getting out of my pj's. I'm so proud of your journey. I didn't know you existed until UA-cam because I don't have a TikTok account anymore...ex boyfriend issue. Anyhow, I know I'm rambling on and on, I sincerely wish you every great thing you could ever imagine in your life! You most definitely deserve it! 😊
I have a friend who is a midwife with children of her own. Her life is crazy and hectic and she asked me for advice on how to declutter her bedroom without turning the room upside down (because she often had to drop everything to deliver a baby 😂) I told her to start with making her bed every morning as soon as she got out of it, because that would give her a lift and once she leaves that room, it may never happen. Then I told her to keep a cardboard box in her room and just go through one drawer at a time, and put anything she wanted to eliminate in the donation box. When she had gone through all of her drawers and closet, eliminating clutter, then she could rearrange items and drawers as she liked, without having a huge mess in the room. It took her a couple of weeks to work through this project (so many interruptions!) but she said this system really worked for her, and didn't disrupt her already manic life.
Great idea!
I raised 4 kids, we had a dog, and I worked night shift. My house was always a wreck! Everything has its place, now, but I really look forward to having the grandchildren come over and "mess it up!" Enjoy those children!
It seems from the comments I'm not the only one that binge watched your videos yesterday! lol. You're the type of person everyone would love as a friend! ❤
Oh this has made me so happy!!! 😁 thank you! ❤️
I came across you today and I'm currently binge watching, I wanted to say that usually, I put a clean video on hubby rolls his eyes and zones out but today he lay watching and said "you know she is the most real account you watch", when others clean clean spaces apparently it's not real life at least not in our house anyway he sat mesmerised while I binge watched so a hit here. Hopefully I'll get away with taking over the TV to complete the content 😂
What an inspiring and incredible Mummy you are to your two young boys! Never justify any parenting style and nor do you ever have to explain anything. You are absolutely right; they are only little for a very short time, and you need to do what is right for the child at that time. Believe me with all my years of parenting and I'm still learning xx
And they NEVER get any better even as teen-agers , yet when they move out of the house into their own home , it's effin spotless, clean as a new pin
I think a lot of viewers miss the fact that you also have a regular job outside the home.
True. Many youtube creators do have an extra job on the side. Sometimes things happen and sometimes the weather happens, but Super Moms like Remi do their top best to have a job, create these inspiring videos and still have time to spend with her kids and husband. That's admirable!
Most moms are truly amazing, too.
Omg I love your channel and you speak exactly the way I do.Mum of 5 kids here and I stumbled across your channel by change and honestly it's been a God send for me you've inspired me to keep going and that someone else is in the same boat as me and I'm not alone thinking I'm a crap mum and bad house cleaner 😂 thanks Hun you're awesome ☺️✌🏻
Every time I feel depressed and anxious, I go to one of your videos. Your voice is so calming and kind and gentle which makes me feel so much better. ❤
I’m so happy to hear this! 🥺❤️
Thank you for saying "As long as everybody's safe and happy, it's got nothing to do with anybody else." You are incredibly encouraging and inspiring!
What you’ve saying about being present with your kids is so true. The years are upon us and gone so quickly. Enjoy every moment, even the trying ones. Thank you for posting, Remi!
Hi Remi, l am a new subscriber from Perth Western Australia. I am so impressed with your channel. You have such a compassionate and honest outlook on taking care of your home and living life. Your vlogs really motivate me to do my best. You're a blessing. Kylie ❤
I don’t feel compelled to comment on many videos, but I just wanted to tell you that you have such a great outlook on life and you are so encouraging! I love your perspectives. ❤
Is good you recognize family first. Stained with love, happiness and memories right ?
Your content is realistic!!!
I can relate
I taught my granddaughter how to sweep, pick up trash and put dirty clothes in washer/transfer washed clothes into dryer…it’s helpful & she’s learning life skills along the way
I found it builds confidence too. 😊
My suggestion would be to put the toys your older son prefers to play with away from the younger one. Perhaps your oldest could play on the highest bunk? Also, just rotate toys out/in for the younger one to keep him interested in them. Also, make it a game with a timer for the both of them to put toys away. Then it doesn't seem like such a chore. Great job on decluttering.
My family sleeps all over the house. I love when you said, as long as everyone one is safe. That’s all that matters❤
When we lived paycheck to paycheck I asked family for gifts of experiences over toys, i.e. A day pass to the zoo, children's museum, water park, movie with snacks. These enrich the childrens' lives and leaves no clutter. Grandparents can give yearly passes. The One In, One Out rule is a life saver! I would also sstore half the toys in containers out of the way and rotate them out monthly. Kids don't get bored of toys they rarely see.
Buying experiences is just the best idea, I agree! And as for the rotating toys, which is another fab idea, and one we’ve been told about often, unfortunately we don’t have any free storage space to keep the other toys.
This is why I love you and your channel sweetheart ❤you are so real and genuine and very motivating ❤
Thank you so much ☺️
Heya! Can i say,i love how honest you are❤ Social media can lead us mums to feel " expectations " on ourselves .
KEEP decluttering,i swear its what saved my sanity..😂 good job ..from Newzealand 🎉
I’m definitely going to make a habit of decluttering every few months! And thank you, I totally agree about the a lot of the time unobtainable expectations we put on ourselves because of social media ❤️
@Remi Clog I really feel ya too,listening to you talk about being a 1st time mum and how scary the world can be..My kids are in their 20s now but I've been raising my eldest grandaughter since birth(she's now 7) so I'm doing the " mum gig" all over again in my 40s
My sister taught me a trick when my kids were little. It may sound weird but it helped. I would sweep all the clutter in a pile then sit down and go through the pile with the bins around me for sorting. It helped. For some folks, they may like all the moving around but I liked sitting down and sorting. It was soothing to me. The room reminds me of my kids when they were little. It used to get cluttered so fast. I would try and have them help but sometimes if it was really too cluttered, I would do it myself and next time have them help. Blessings to you!
I went back and watched some of your videos. Your videos are on the mark as far as real life. I love that the unique "wiring" of your mind is often a topic - it helps me feel better and helps others understand!
Train your children to pick up behind themselves; you can’t retrain them when they are teenagers.
Agree .I don't knw they didn't teach them from youngest age !!
If you've been watching her for more than 5 minutes, you'll know that her older son does, but her little one is only one and can't be expected to really do this properly yet
So relatable I struggled with managing all them things too. Should be more people like you on the Internet then this perfect life they portray xxx
Thank you. Glad to know it’s not just me xx
Just tackled my kids room last week! The closest and everything it took 4 hours 😵💫 much love from a fellow content creator from the US! You are really good at keeping our attention ❤
I just subscribed to your channel. 😊
@@Sunshinelaura1 thank you 😊 happy to have you there!
I think you are a wonderful, kind partner and parent. You have so much wisdom to share.
I am so overwhelmed. One minute I was celebrating my anniversary and then less than 24 hours later I was alone without any word or explanation. Now from the moment I am woken up to the moment I put him down to bed, and even after cos he is like a tornado, I am constantly running cleaning up and looking after my two year old. Sometimes I just feel so useless. I was in tears the other day cos I was just trying to organize a day trip to the sea side, but because of my autism, that doesn’t come easily like it does for so many people 😢just keep trying not to cry. It makes it worse that I have no family to help me.
I hope things have improved for you over these past 7 months Lindsey. Life can be so so hard at times, and so overwhelming, I try to remember in those times that it won't last forever. Time is fleeting and even the hardest moments pass.
What your partner did to you was awful, I am so sorry, I will never understand the cruelty some people seem to possess. I truly hope you realise how incredible you are. How strong you are. How brave you are. Your son will grow up appreciating what a wonderful mum he got to grow up with. I am sure he will grow into a young man who treats those around him with compassion, kindness and respect.
I am already proud of you, he will be too, and so should you be.
You have got this!
@@Him.Me.Q.and.P thank you so much. I wish I could say things have gotten better, they did. Right now I’m going through a really painful time in my life. I have to be strong for my child, but I can honestly say if it were not for him, I wouldn’t want to be here. Thank you for your kind words, I wish you happiness for your life.
I love your video it is so natural and true. Keep going girl your doing a great job with your home and family. I have subscribed and I'm very picky xxx
Remi, I have been watching your videos from past time also. I can't believe only now I came across you! You are like a breath of fresh air! The sweetest, kindest, caring person! You speak so well and are so clear and enjoyable to listen to. I'm just so happy to find you! Thank you! 💞
Girl, you are amazing!!! Your videos are so inspiring and motivational! Thank you so much for taking the time for making these videos and sharing with us! 🙌🏻❤️
You did an amazing job… you are not alone. In all you have said I have been there
Hi Remi, I have just found your channel and you are such a breath of fresh air! You talk alot of sense and are really inspirational, you go girl! 😊 xx
Loved the video and you can talk all you want that’s what makes you so interesting.❤
I always find videos like these so relaxing but so encouraging at the same time! I love your philosophies on life and what you're trying to teach your sons. They're very blessed to have you 😊
P.S. I think they're beds and colorful cabinets are so cute!
I find it quite annoying when people try to tell you how to raise your children. Every parent and every child is different. I have 4 and they all require different things from us as parents. It's not a one fits all kind of situation, even within the same household.
Everyone should parent how it best suits them and their children. As long as the children/parents are all happy and healthy then your individual method is winning, as far as I am conferned.
Absolutely!!! I totally agree, they are all so different right off the bat. And honestly, each child gets a different version of us too, even if we try to be as consistent as possible across the board. Like you said, they all require different things 😊
Everyone knows how to raise kids better than the parents. Life would be perfect if we just let strangers make those decisions for us. Please insert sarcasm font.
Learning to be happy with what you have is very difficult for most people. We always want what we don't have because that's human nature. But when you finally learn to do that, it does really make all the difference.
For me it's often the choice whether to deal with my son's room or rest of the house 😅
Damn! I think your videos may just as well save my apartment and my mind from blowing up completely.
My children and now my grandchildren gathered their toys and their things themselves from 3or 4 years old. When they were little we did it together, but then they did it without me.
It's very strange for me to see how much time you spend to clean it yourself.
So it’s my 1 year old that does this. My 7 year old does put away. But I don’t think it’s fair for him to clear this level of mess when it wasn’t his doing
Omg I just found your channel today and have binge watched while cleaning all day! Thank you so much! Your videos have inspired me and helped me with my depression postpartum funk! Your timer trick was wonderful and the things you say are beyond relatable it felt like I was listening to a British version of me!!(American here) but really thank you, thank you, thank you so much for being you!❤ And can’t which video it was in about who you sound like but your voice reminds me of Martha from the 90s The Secret Garden. ❤❤❤
Great work... and it's twice as much work to film while doing the job!
Yeah, a really big purge will make it much easier to keep on top. Kids really do just fine with few toys. It's counter-intuitive, but the less "stuff" they're surrounded by, the more their imaginations go to work.
New subscriber here! UA-cam put you in my "Recommended " list and I'm so glad that it did. You're lovely. 💗 I love a good cleaning video. 😊
Just thought that I would say hello from Ontario, Canada.
Keep up the great work.

Yesss Gratitude is everything. I love watching your channel. Your honesty is so encouraging if that makes sense😊
We do a similar thing with our sleeping arrangements too and the judging comments we've had - argh! My husband sleeps in the home office room, I sleep with our four year old and my husband's and my room has a bed in it that we rarely use. Eventually things will change but for now we all get a really good sleep and that's the main thing ☺️
Exactly! You have to do what works for you ☺️
I like you talking instead of hearing songs all the time.
Remi, my children's kindergarten teacher, organized the children's books into tall sided dish pans. Because it was easy for the kids to put the books away that way. It then worked for us too.
I'm sorry for the rude, judgy comments. We cosleep too. My husband snores loudly so he has his own room. I sleep with the kids in my room. The two older ones have their own rooms, but sleep in the bunk bed in my room and my little one has a toddler bed in my room but usually sleeps with me. It's no one's business but your own how you raise your kids. People need to just mind their own business.
Agreed💯 we sleep all over the house. Some times the kids sleep with us and sometimes we sleep with the kids❤
Your, 'Live and let live' attitude is refreshing.
Just started following you. I have subscribed as well. I can really relate to how you feel about cleaning. I find the things you say profound & I appreciate your silly streak😊 I look forward to your future videos💗
Another great motivational vlog! ☺️
You really are a breath of fresh air - so pleased to see your channel growing 🥰 have a lovely day 🥰
Hi Remi, Thank you so much for your videos! We all need a reminder to go a little easier on ourselves and not beat ourselves up so much. I'm from Ireland but I live in Pennsylvania, US and it's lovely to hear a familiar accent from my old neck of the woods. I love your perspective so much. It's so easy to get overwhelmed on the home front and it's so helpful to hear your strategies for getting things done without spinning off into stress and overwhelm. Thank you so much!
Thanks for being so real. You are so relatable.
You are incredibly inspiring and motivational. Thank you.
Very much enjoying your videos. It is real life. Enjoy your personality and outlook on everyday life. You have helped me incredibly. Blessings to you and your family.
Thank you so much, it’s so lovely to hear this! ☺️
I needed this for later in the week. We just moved and yeah our daughters room. Ahhh 😂❤
Loved the dialogue with this one as well ☺️
The same is with me. My daughter (9yo) sleeps with me and her room is a total disaster. Every time I pass near it I close the door. You motivate me a lot. Yesterday I saw a video and cleaned my mess for about 40 minutes thinking that I would need at least 2 hours. I have dedicated this afternoon to put an order in her room. Thank you!
Love that….family is your number one priority.
The children’s room looked amazing and the floors look fabulously clean. Well done! 😊
I love your philosophical approach to life.. You are wonderful to listen too. Gratitude is a grace 💜💕
Hahaha the bit where you said about washing then breaking the hoover brought back a time where I killed my stick hoover after trying to hoover ice and snow the other month 🤣🤣🤣
My word, this brings me back a few years :) Little boy's room's always look like that ...at least mine did! lol.
What a great job you did you make it look so easy but when it's done it makes you feel good well done remi
I've been watching your videos and find them very motivating. Thanks for keeping it real and I enjoy all the communicating you do throughout the videos. USA ♥️⚪💙
Thank you for sharing. I relate to and appreciate your videos more than you know… You are doing great and inspiring so many. Keep up the good work ❤
Thank you so much! ❤️
I just found you a couple days ago and everytime I've had a minute to myself, I've popped on one of your videos. You are amazing!
Finally I've found someone real, not 'insta-ready', who literally expresses everything that's in my mind. I just love you and your attitude!
I'm a mum of a 15 month old boy and struggling with keeping up. So thank you for the constant reminder that they're little for such a short time, that it wont be like this forever and that its that its not perfect everyday.
I'm also blessed with the same at Christmas and birthdays - he is absolutely spoilt! So I cover all the practical stuff - clothes, kitchen items, swimming gear, shoes etc. He loves them just as much 😊
I just need to not get attached to everything he gets and keep it all. I'm pretty good at decluttering so far! I have to be in a 2 bedroom unit 😅
Just discovered you today and bingeing your vids.. honestly feels like your talking to me 🥰 subbed and cant wait to see more 😁🙌 x
Just found your channel and thank you for the honest cleans and not the ones that are cleaning an already clean home my house isn't perfect and seeing other videos where their houses are makes me feel bad especially when they say things like I have kids too you have no excuses thanks for making me feel like shit 😅
in many cultures such as mine, our young ones are let to sleep with their parents until they are ready, don't worry they will get there. the bond with their parents is incredible into adulthood. it is very true they are little for an incredibly short time 🥰
You are exactly right. Every family does things a bit differently and that is ok. When my son was about 2, he started waking up, running down the hall to our room and crawling in with me. He knew all he had to say was "I had a bad dream." I was concerned at one time but my husband said, "I'll bet he doesn't sleep with us when he is in high school"! Just as you said. And at some point, he stopped coming down. They do grow up.
Maybe if I watch enough of your videos I'll finally get to tackle straigthening up my craft room!!
I like listening to you while watching how clean the carpet gets 😍 amazing
Great job...I love your views on life
I LOVE your HONESTY! I could hear you talk all day 😊 I believe you could be a fantastic MOTIVATIONAL SPEAKER!❤
I am happy I found you! It is so nice to see real life cleaning.
Keep up the great work!
❤ from America
Note about night terrors: my kid used to sleepwalk (also a parasomnia) and my doctor told me that the children’s hospital wouldn’t do a sleep study until his iron levels were above a certain level. His levels were in the normal range (not low) but not as high as they require for a sleep study.
So we got a children’s iron powder supplement and started giving him that every other day and… he stopped sleepwalking soon after.
Maybe ask your doctor if it would be a reasonable thing to try? I was really surprised!
We had always avoided sugary breakfast cereals (which are a big source of iron for a lot of kids because they fortify it with iron/folate/etc here in Canada). My kids eat meat so I thought that was good enough but I guess in our case it wasn’t.
Here is a tip I got from I believe frugal mom that she got from someone else every time u do a deep cleaning or every month select 21 things to donate or toss.
Das ist richtig sonnst sammelt sich immer mehr an von Dingen die man im allgemeinen garnicht braucht . Und dann würde ich mit meinen Kindern reden das jeder einige kleine Aufgaben übernimmt , sonnst lernen die kleinen selbst nie Ordnung . 🤗🍀🐦Viel glück der fleißigen Mama 🙏
I am an overwhelmed nani and suffer with chonic pain . I love putting your videos on in the background. I have my granddaughters living with us and mum . I just love watching your videos. It helps me so much to get motivated xx
Oh bless you! I’m so pleased to hear the videos help 😁 xx
I just discovered your channel and am really enjoying it. I'm 58, no kids, and live in Kentucky, but I still can relate to you. I love how down to earth you are and you have such a lovely voice. I hope you and yours are well and happy.❤
This video motivated me to clean two areas of my house that have needed a proper declutter for a very long time. Thank you! ❤❤❤
I’m really pleased to hear this!! Well done you! I hope you feel so proud and that a massive weight has been lifted? 😁
Ive been watching cleaning vligs for years but i came across yours just yesterday and im just hooked the way you explain things your soothing voice your positivity ! Dont stop i love love your channel well done sweety❤
I love your openness and honesty. Started watching your videos yesterday Friday 26 May)
You are so wise Remi and your understanding of parenting is great….your values are priceless!
Your children are very blessed to have you as their mum. ❤Thank you for sharing your videos.
I’m a fan already.
Keep doing your videos and thank you soooo much for your housekeeping tips. ❤
Awesome videos Remi! Thank you for being so real :) I also struggle with keeping up with everything daily and panic cleaning before anyone comes over! It's so reassuring to know that I'm not the only one x I have made some serious progress the past couple of years but I'm still not quite there yet. You'd rarely see the floor for toys and piles of clean clothes waiting to be put away throughout the house. Lets not mention washing the dishes - this was, and still is, my least favourite chore! Hopefully you won't mind me recommending another UA-camr, whose advice has helped me greatly and I think could possibly help you and others like us? Dana K White introduced the idea of having a 'Clutter threshold' and how it's different for each of us - Complete Life changer for me - I think this could help so many people here
Hello again I love those videos 📹 it makes me feel better and more motivated to clean it gives me the boost that I need as do suffering from depression and anxiety disorder
I am in South Africa,I love your voice and accent so much,am a mom of three in a very messy house for I have a teenager,toddler and a baby,gets overwhelming all the time, this video made me feel so much better

I love your english accent. :) .. nice video ❤
I tell family "experiences not items they will have a more full childhood of memories of they have experiences not toys." You are Doing Amazing 🎉
Love that!
I just watched your video on tips to tackling abig over whelming mess at home . It genuinely could not have randomly popped up on my UA-cam at a better time for me but everything U were saying in it was so relatable like I felt like Im exactly the same and it actually was so nice to no I'm not alone In This feeling with the mess and attacking things that have been left to the point of feeling to overwhelmed to do anything at all. Thank U so much!!! I'm about to watch the video about you cleaning your son's room now . Need need need to do the same with my son's room today as well. Its hard but yeah thank U again for your videos , I literally beat myself up about it so much thinking I must be the only mum that just can't seem to get on top and keep on top of the shit hole mess at my house and like U, most of the time I fell like o don't even no how it happens and how it happens so quickly😢❤
Watching this now...this is exactly my sons room. This is going to help me so much...binging your videos to kick my arse into gear. You are a absolute diamond & sooo inspirational ❤❤
The carpet looks lovely when it's shampooed. You did girl. You did good 👍🏾
Thank you 😁 x
Fourth video. I'm NOT the only one!😊 Yay!
For spit cleaning carpets I found an amazing stain remover on Amazon, HG one. I spray it on and scrub with a cloth, it’s like the stain was never there!! I have a white and grey rug under our dining table ( I know dippy as hell 😂 ) and I’m having to clean it daily, this spray is deffo the nuts!
What a great chat we just had while you tidied up 😊 Thank you for bringing us along on your journey as a wife and mom. I know I can relate ❤
It makes me so happy you feel like we were having a chat!! That’s totally my aim ☺️❤️
These videos genuinely motivate me to clean too thank you! ♥️
