Even if you don&&num;8217&semi;t want to hire a full blown babysitter because you will technically be in the house with them&comma; just having someone come keep a watchful eye and provide entertainment could be a blessing to get some work done&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p class&equals;"has-medium-font-size">A few hours once or few times a week could provide you the luxury of getting things done without the interruptions&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p class&equals;"has-medium-font-size">If you don&&num;8217&semi;t live close to family and don&&num;8217&semi;t trust or want to hire a babysitter&comma; then have your significant other help out&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p class&equals;"has-medium-font-size">Have them take the kids outside to play or on a long walk&comma; something that will provide you with time to get stuff done&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p><&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p class&equals;"has-medium-font-size">Hopefully these ideas and tips were helpful and maybe even gave you some motivation to get multitasking and accomplish all those mom goals&excl;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p class&equals;"has-medium-font-size">Write in the comments some of your mom goals&excl;
