Even the best home offices are liable to intrusions by your little ones and the mess that follows. If you catch yourself needing a quiet space, we’ve got the answer.
Working at home brings with it the joy of being able to watch our kids grow without us having to feel like we’re putting any career aspirations on hold. But it can also be trying to get things done while having to clean up after a curious tyke who bounces from game to game and never seems to run out of energy.
The privilege of working from home is enviable to many, but one can hardly begin to imagine the mental exhaustion that comes with juggling both work and motherhood. By the time you’ve experienced the intense pain of stepping on yet another Lego piece for the umpteenth time, or found Barbie’s clothes wedged between your documents, you might be questioning your sanity for making the call to work from home in the first place.
If all you need is a quiet space to really hunker down and get things done for a few hours, here is a cheat sheet of awesome working spaces that will give you the space to get focused and clear your backlog.
Trehaus
Mamas, this is definitely going on your list. This amazing co-working space comes equipped with child-minding and learning facilities, which is perfect if you have no one at home to mind the kids while you take offfor a few hours. Situated conveniently at Claymore Connect in the heart of the CBD, Trehaus has split its space into two areas—the Workspace and the Kid’s Atelier. The Workspace offers a choice of private offices, semi-private dedicated desks, and a common co-work space for you to work from.
