Budgetting Tips For Stay at Home Moms

Image
As a stay at home mom for almost 11 years, I have been very prudent when it comes to our finances. We are both freelancers and between me and the husband, he takes more income than me. Our income also depends on our clients each month, so I really have to manage our finances well. As a stay at home mom, I have to think of ways on how to handle our finances well. We can do it in our own little way through the following: 1. Cable subscription. This is the very first thing we had to let go of. We have to pay  Php  1,750 monthly for our cable subscription and that is  Php  21,000 annual savings! Since I restrict the children from watching too much TV, and rarely watch even during the weekends, so I decided to let it go.  2. Create a menu plan.

Last year, there was an incident that taught me something about motherhood. After my eldest’s math enrichment session, he went out of the class feeling frustrated and was on the verge of crying. My mother instinct tells me that there was something wrong with him. I was so eager to know what was going on that I immediately asked what’s making him sad but it’s as if there was nothing wrong with him. After 15 minutes of trying, he still wouldn’t tell me what was going on.
