My Daily Cleaning schedule | Free printable
One of my goals for this year was to be more organised – check. To be kinder to myself – check & to not put too much pressure on me – check. Finally, to keep on top of my house which looks ransacked on a daily basis – almost check! I totally need a daily cleaning checklist in my life! We’re only a month {& some change} into the new year and I have found that I am without a doubt, a list kind of gal. Just like the gorgeous Mrs Hinch! And like her, I get monumental amounts of joy when I tick off each job, whether it be for the blog or the housework.
My head can feel like a landfill on most days. All kinds of things are poured in for me to either remember, do, make, empty, fold, put away. The list goes on & on – no pun intended! So it is prevalent that I need guidance via the power of the to-do list! Every day I print myself off a few checklists – my daily blog checklist and my daily cleaning schedule – both see me through the day to stay on top of the housework & keep my blog in check.
I’ll not lie, I’ve considered hiring a cleaner. Mainly because there is just so much of it to do all the time! But then I had a word with myself and thought – maybe if we ever move I’ll look into getting an end of tenancy cleaner or something. That makes much better sense, right?
The checklists really help me to keep the distraction of the landfill fuelled mind at bay and they give me order and at the end of the day? The ability to breathe. I’ve never been one to think that Mental health plays a part in my life. But as time goes on and the more I think about it, maybe it does? I still cannot say for sure, but I know that keeping a tidy home {and blog} helps me keep a tidy mind.
With that said, I thought I would share with you my daily schedule for cleaning, make it into a free printable – naturally – and maybe it will help you, too.
Daily Cleaning Checklist for kids
I have to admit, though – keeping up with this in our madhouse has been tough! But I’m really trying. Like, really trying! I like to get the troops in on the action too. The kids need to earn their pocket money somehow, right?
I also understand that not everything needs doing every single day – some jobs can be weekly – but I will leave that printable for another time. The housework can sometimes be pretty overwhelming – don’t you agree? Especially with big families {like ours} and everyone contributing to the house looking like it’s been recently ransacked. Well, not anymore!
Hopefully, this list will help me keep on top of the house, rather than the house kicking my ass every chance it gets! I also hope that if you were in need of some order and housework related guidance to help you stay on top of the dreaded daily housework – that it helps you too!

Oh you are so organised here! I have zero cleaning schedule, mainly just to clean as I go which rarely happens! Ahh!
I so NEED a schedule, if not everything just goes to chaos!
I love this and am bookmarking it to use, so thank you! So useful to have it all written down like this and being able to tick it off.
Ticking each job off to sooo satisfying, lol!
We need one of these lists and schedules badly. My mummy binge cleans and ends up leaving it all to the last minute!
Lists are so, so helpful – especially when it comes to housework!
Oh my goodness that’s incredibly organised! I wonder how much time in a day this checklist would take?
This all takes me….maybe an hour? But I tend to break my housework up into sections. It seems much less overbearing that way. I would be 20mins here, 20mins there. I find it helps to do it that way.
I definitely need something like this in my life – I really struggle to keep on top of all my cleaning x
I struggle on a daily basis but lists really work for me. Hopefully, it works for you too!
I love the idea of the cleaning checklist. Often I think about all the tasks that need completing and get overwhelmed. However, seeing it spread across the days works really well
It sounds like you’re really getting on top of your housework, Debs. Well done 🙂 I always start well but then let myself down after a couple of days. It’s a nightmare.

I am trying too! Haha! The list is certainly helping!
Wow, you’re so organised! This is a lovely printable, thank-you!
Your so welcome. x
This is exactly what I needed, thanks! I will print this out and laminate it, so I can wipe the dailies clean every day 🙂 Love all your printables! I’m always seeing them on Pinterest haha!
Your welcome!! Laminating it is such a great idea!
Love this free printable thanks. It’s just what I needed as I work better from a check list.
This is what I need! I love this idea. Helps you to keep on top of everything 🙂 x
This is it! Keeping on top of everything isn’t easy!
I love the idea of a daily cleaning schedule, but in reality I cram it all into the weekends as am battling with work, clubs and keeping the kids in order
I am usually that way too – we all do what we can when we can, right! But I have to admit, the checklist is a godsend for me, personally!
Now this is exactly what I needed, will surely print it as I’m so badly organised with all the cleaning things!
Everyone needs a cleaning list in their lives!
