6 Gift Ideas for the WAHM
Sometimes finding a gift for mom can be difficult. Sure, you can get jewelry or makeup, but not
every mom wants those items, despite what advertisers think. However, if mom is a work at home mom (WAHM),
there are plenty of gifts you can get her, and she’ll likely enjoy them a great
deal.
Meal Kit
Making dinner each night and grocery shopping is just a
nuisance when your schedule is packed and you barely have time to finish your
work and spend time with the kids. For the
frazzled WAHM, a meal kit service might be the ideal gift. A box appears on her doorstep once a week
with all the groceries she needs for her meals and recipe cards so she can
create new meals, alleviating dinner time boredom.
There are so many meal kits to choose from—Blue Apron,
HelloFresh, and Purple Carrot—just to name a few, that you’ll likely be able to
find something that fits her food preferences.
Conference Ticket
Attending a conference once a year is important for a work at home mom to remain
sharp in her field and learn new skills. If you know what
conference she’d like to attend, consider buying the ticket.
Babysitting
Sometimes there is an urgent deadline that she must meet,
but that can be difficult if the kids are home or if she homeschools. Consider giving mom free babysitting passes
that she can use whenever she needs a break or has a deadline she must
meet. She’ll appreciate having a safe,
fun place for her kids to go as well as the time to get things done.
Camera
A high-quality camera is essential for many work at home mom
jobs such as blogging, social media, selling on Etsy, advertising on
Pinterest. If mom has been using her old
camera, consider surprising her with a new one.
She’ll be thrilled!
Spa Day/Gym Pass
Let’s face it, parents today do a lot. They work, spend time with the kids, drive
the kids to activities, help with homework, make food, do laundry, clean house. It’s an exhausting list! Why not give mom a day away. If she likes to go to the spa, a gift for a
day at the spa might be perfect. Or, you
could get her a pass to the gym or the yoga study.
Mom’s don’t tend to focus on themselves, and if they do,
they often do so last. This gift helps
encourage mom to take time to relax and recharge.
Noise-Canceling Headphones
Most work at home moms work at least sometimes when their kids are home. Staying focused while kids
have their toy soldiers battle or while they watch the latest movie can be a challenge. Noise-canceling headphones are the perfect
answer. Mom can still work and stay
focused, even in a house full of noise and commotion.
Whether you’re looking to find gifts for mom for the
holidays, her birthday, or Mother’s Day, one of these gifts is likely sure to
delight her.
