When Was the Last Time You Had 3 Hours to Yourself?

Not 3 hours to run errands.
Not 3 hours to fold laundry while listening for the baby.
Not 3 hours half-watching a show while answering emails.

But truly 3 hours — uninterrupted, just for you.

When I ask this question to Treasure Valley parents, the answer is often a long pause. A soft laugh. A little shake of the head.
Because for most parents, especially mothers, time alone has become something that lives on the edge of fantasy.

But self-care isn’t selfish.
It’s essential maintenance for the most important person in your family’s life: you.

What could shift if you had just one afternoon a week that wasn’t about catching up — but truly about resting?
What if the house kept moving even when you stepped away — because someone else had the rhythm handled?

This is what I hold space for through my work offering mental load relief for parents, household support in Boise, and family rhythm assistance:
– You step out, breathe deeply, and know things will be okay.
– You come back to folded laundry, tidy spaces, fed children, and no list waiting.
– You have just enough distance to hear your own thoughts again.

Whether your self-care looks like a walk in the foothills, a nap with no alarm, or finally sitting down with a hot cup of tea — you deserve it.
And it starts with someone who can hold the day for you while you rest.

So, really —
What would you do with an afternoon of freedom?
