The response to our post about reopening safety guidelines has been overwhelmingly positive. Thank you all for supporting us during this crazy time! Things will look differently for a while, but we can get through it if we lean on each other.
Starting July 13th we will be reopening under the new name of Home Harmony.
This is an important move for us as we want to be more inclusive. Up until the 6 months before quarantine, we had only ever been hired by one male-identifying person. Several people have reached out to the page, confusing us with a support group for moms, or a business that ONLY caters to moms. The Motivated Mamas name also did not feel welcoming to potential non-female gendered applicants. We are grateful for everything the brand name Motivated Mamas gave us. We're ready to spread our wings a bit more now. Our goal has always been to help a variety of people. Now, our business will project that message. <3
With the coronavirus at an all time high, we have added expenses for being able to operate. Cleaning supplies are difficult to find, so we are having to drive to multiple locations to find them. We are providing reusable cloth masks to each person doing house visits, and a fresh mask will be worn in each client's home. We are also providing gloves and hand sanitizer to all employees. Finally, all hours worked in a client's home will be at a $5 increase in pay to cover Hazard Pay.
These new expenses translate to new pricing for our clients. I wish we could absorb the additional cost, but we were already operating on a shoestring budget before quarantine. Please remember that we are a small business, and we are not trying to nickel and dime you. We believe we are providing a much needed community service- with excellence- and I know many of you do as well. <3
Our new packages are:
2hr appointments $120
3hr appointments $140
4hr appointments $165
5hr appointments $185
Donation drop offs are still available for an additional $10.
Each package includes a comprehensive planning session via video/phone call before each appointment so we can discuss your needs and goals for your home, and you can physically show us the problem areas. We will come up with a plan that works best for your family and then execute that plan during our visit. After the visit, we'll have another call to check in and make sure we met your expectations.
These calls are integral to the spirit of our company. This is how we stay connected to you as fellow human beings. We highly encourage you to take advantage of these calls. If you are unable or uninterested in doing this, we respect your choice. Please leave a full, detailed list of what is important for you to have done during your visit.
As always, if you find that you can’t afford to get the help you need, please reach out to us. We are always willing to work with our community. <3
We are really excited about getting back to work with our clients. We appreciate everyone who has ever opened their doors to us and it will be a breath of fresh air to come back.
Thanks for sticking in there. <3
