If you are a mom, you might have noticed that this is a busy life where there’s no time to sit down and rest. Whether you are a stay-at-home mom, or a housewife in the evening and working woman during the daytime, you probably don’t realize how much technology is empowering you to maintain all your various roles as a woman. The definition of what it means to be a mom and run the household has changed dramatically since the beginning of the 21st century: Not only are some moms just as busy as they always were, but they now have managed to find the time to established themselves as individuals on top their other activities, often via a freelancing business such as a craft business or a blogger activity. Technology is the key: It is giving tech-savvy moms the power to go beyond what used to be standard daily tasks and create a multitasking empire.
Mom 2.0 Keeps A Cleaner And Safer House
Older adults probably remember the time where there were only a broom and a heavy vacuum cleaner to keep the house tidy. Nowadays, cleaning is made a lot easier and more effective with powerful tools that can clean safely. Indeed, people have tried to reduce the use of dangerous chemical products in the household for the safety of young children and pets. More and more cleaning devices now are able to sanitize and scrub your flooring areas without using any detergent that would have represented a health risk for the family. They are not only safer, but they are also truly more effective and a lot faster: This makes the mom 2.0 someone who doesn’t waste time unnecessarily. Not only can you now save a lot of time – in average most households record a weekly cleaning time of fewer than three hours including laundry, dishes and floors, while 50 years ago you would have counted more than three days -, but you also keep the household fully child and pet-friendly.
Mom 2.0 Is More Health Aware
There is no denying it: Moms can cook a lot faster now than they would have 50 years ago. Why is that? Simply because you now have access to smarter kitchen appliances that can save you a lot of time and keep your meals healthy and light. More and more people tend to use an electric steamer to prepare their vegetables and fish, as this preserves most nutrients. You can also find tools that replace the expertise of a professional chef with the best food processors on the market: Grinding, slicing, chopping, shredding and mixing has never been that easy and quick before. Finally, other new devices are keeping things simple, such as the food spiralizer, the electric coffee machine that can now make high-quality drinks in a click, and even the electric bread maker that can make a fresh loaf every day. Did anyone say Super Mom?
Mom 2.0 Is A Cost Savvy Shopper
Fashion is part of your everyday life, and this is also part of belonging to a community, as it is a way of expressing your personality and your tastes. In the past, fashion would have been less important: Women had simply less time, and couldn’t easily afford new outfits. Now, the digital revolution gives you direct access to hundreds of online retailers where you can compare design and prices to find what suits your personality best. Additionally, Christmas shopping and birthday shopping is made easy too: All you need is a few clicks to order your items. Thanks to the digital technology, modern moms are not only dead on trend, but they are also a lot more shopping-savvy: They know where to find discount vouchers, how to compare prices and where to find the best and cheapest option. That makes your household more effective than ever before!
Mom 2.0 Is An Entrepreneur
Who would have thought that one day moms would be influential voices of a social community. Indeed, Mom 2.0 is connected on social media, Twitter, Facebook or Instagram, and she has a socialite profile that people follow. Millennial moms love to create an attractive scenery and excite with the learnings of their little family. Every mom has the chance to build for herself an online empire based on her expertise and interests: If you love baking cakes for your children, you could post pictures online, for example. Maybe that’s even the start of a business? If you prefer to advise on parenting questions, why not start a blog? In short, technology has given you a voice, so seize this chance and create your digital self.
I live in a small Georgia town that you most likely have never heard of and I LOVE it! My house is more than full as I am a single mother of four & caregiver to my aging mother and uncle. Lover of all things Outlander. Goes to the beat of her own drum woman.

I wish all these things had been available when I was raising my kids, especially the internet. The internet didn’t arrive in my home until they we almost teens. I would have relished all those resources as a new mom. I do love all the household helpers nowadays too,
