Home-Office
The ideal home office and childcare arrangement. I’ve never seen this, but I have a fantasy that I would have multifaceted help that could double as a nanny and a secretary…perhaps this could be a reality for someone, but like I said, mere fantasy for me.
The ideal home-office is one away from family noise and from little helping hands. I’ve had the fortunate experience of having tried several locations in our house. At one point I had the office in the baby’s room which worked okay when the baby slept a lot and wasn’t crawling or running around. My husband built me an office outside the house, which ended up being the best room of the house because it was well insulated and quiet. Currently, since the outside office in the transition area for the tail end of our construction project, I am working from the guest room. The guest room allows me hear the kids as they play outside as well as throughout the rest of the house.
Inside Your Ideal Home-Office
Essentials for a home-office include:
1. Computer
2. Printer/copier/fax machine hopefully with a scanner.
3. Filing cabinet and a system to keep it organized.
4. A good-sized desk that allows you to spread out your work.
5. Book shelves.
6. Storage for office supplies
7. Phone, although many people just use their cell phones now
