With COVID-19 disrupting the day to day lives of millions of people around the world, life and work as we know it has been drastically changed. Working remotely has become the new norm for many companies. For many people, working from home can be difficult, especially if they are juggling the demands of parenthood.
Here, we’ll discuss some of the benefits of virtual work environments and discuss how our team at Household Staffing can help make things go more smoothly.
#1: Flexibility.
Employees that work from home report that the flexibility they gain by working from home is one of the main benefits. They often have more control over their schedules and balancing work and personal demands can be easier. This in turn, creates happier, less stressed employees.
#2: Time savings.
Have you spent years commuting to work? For many people, it’s normal to commute 1 to 2 hours a day to the office. This becomes part of their daily routine, but once you’re given the option to work from you, you instantly gain that time back. This saved time means you can be more productive and more effectively reach your work and personal goals.
#3: Productivity.
Because work-at-home employees are happier in their home environment, their productivity often skyrockets. This increased efficiency can yield big results for companies, no matter how big or small they are.
While working from home has many benefits, it can also be challenging to adjust to. There may be more interruptions at home – especially with kids around the house. For many parents, in-home employees are the solution to this. Hiring an experienced nanny that can provide your kids with the loving and attentive care they need while you work, is incredibly beneficial. Nannies can help make meals, take the kids to and from school or to other appointments, and offer the activities that your kids need to be engaged and enriched as they develop.
We have a wide variety of experienced, trained nannies that are looking for their next in-home placement. Contact us today for information on hiring a nanny that works with your budget guidelines and schedule. We look forward to talking to you!
