Hey there! I’m Jessica.

I’ve spent the last 28 years chasing kids, homeschooling, managing a home, and working from home. You could say I was home-based before it became so incredibly cool. I’ve got six kids, one husband, and more than a few stamps in my passport.

Here at Life as Mom we believe you can do the important things on your list without freaking out or going broke.

Spoiler: I’ve done both and have learned a better way.

You, as a mom or family manager, deserve to know that you’re not alone. You can conquer the to-do list and keep smiling. I’m here to help!
