Hey there!
My name is Jaimi, and I am a mom who loves to encourage moms in the season of raising children, making a home, and staying focused on the end goals of motherhood. I am the mom of four, including a set of twins. I am also a military wife, writer and “professional” playdate planner. We have to meet mom friends somehow, right?!
I studied early childhood education and teaching in college, so I was able to study a lot about child psychology, family dynamics and what research shows about those two factors in the life of children. I decided to channel that background and the feeling like I could really help moms who were just trying to survive at home caring for their families.
The stay at home mom survival guide is my little ministry. It is a resource for mothers, parents, caregivers and teachers.

Psychological Impacts of Relocation and How Preparation Eases Adjustment
Relocation is far more than a physical transfer of goods from one address to another; it represents a major psychological disruption, consistently ranking among the most stressful life events alongside divorce or job loss. This profound upheaval can trigger a...
Snowball Toss Indoors!
If it is too cold outside for your little ones to go and play. Bring them inside for a snowball toss indoors! Toddlers, preschoolers and even school age kids can all play this game together. My four kids played it one afternoon and had a ball...no pun intended! A snowball toss indoors is easy to...
Cotton Ball Toddler Fine Motor Activity
Kids love cotton balls. They are so versatile as a hands-on fine motor and sensory activity. I grabbed some cotton balls for a cotton ball fine motor activity for my twins. The twins were so little! I can’t believe how fast time really does fly. This activity counts as a one item activity for kids...
Lead a Fitness Challenge Group
We moms tend to push aside our own goals to support the needs of our families. I spent many years doing this. Exercise did not happen, quiet time was never enough, and it gets frustrating. Let’s all get back on track. We can even get our mom-friends involved in getting fit together. If you are a...
We Have Each Other
My 17 month old did not sleep well, and as I mentioned, my 4-year-old son was up by 6:30am on most mornings. From the moment I get out of bed, it is move-move-move, until bedtime. Tonight I hit the wall. Single parenting is tough. I feel that I have no right to complain. My husband is not even...
Seek Happiness as a Mom
{Post by Heather} In the last couple of weeks, I’ve had a couple of encounters with other women that have left me feeling less than. It’s happened before and unfortunately, it’s bound to happen again. I know it’s not something that women do on purpose or because they’re judging me, but it irks me...
Free or Cheap Activities for Kids in the Hi-Desert of California
Many felt sorry for us when we had to move from the almost-tropical paradise of San Diego to the hi-desert of southern California. My husband was one of them! I kept an open mind, and figured there would be plenty of hidden gems (or not-so-hidden) to keep the kids learning and playing. I found a...
How to Achieve Balance with Food and Fitness
With Fall in full swing, many of us gear up to re-tackle our health and wellness goals created earlier in the year. By now you know that living a healthy lifestyle is all about how to achieve balance with food and fitness. Let’s face it; there isn’t one plan that fits everyone’s dietary needs,...
How to Build a Home-Based Business
I never wanted to work while my kids were young. Being a stay-at-home mom was my first priority. I set my sights on being wife and mom in my first 10 years of marriage. Then, my husband’s job became a little less secure. I chose to build a home-based business on my time to help our financial...
Teaching Kids to Help at Home
In the past, we had trouble getting our kids to do their chores. I have seen plenty of attitude. I even used screen time to bribe my children. Things started to change when I got sick and tired of doing everything for them. When they couldn’t find a belonging, they thought it was my responsibility...
Sorting and Classification Activity for Young Children
While in the midst of homeschooling my older two, I have to balance the time my preschool aged twins need to learn too! Activities that support learning in multiple age groups are a key. I like simple learning activities that are perfect for my 3 years olds and build on big concepts like this...
