Starting point
Start with the family’s departure time, then separate duties needed beforehand from those that can happen later. Morning priorities clarify timing without making every task urgent.
for a home with two kitchens
Explain each kitchen’s use and supplies, allocating time by actual use rather than treating both spaces equally.
a first-week plan
Use the first week to introduce the routine and review whether the list is realistic, making clear agreed adjustments where needed.
