17 Things Moms Will Never Decline

When you’re a mom, the days can stretch on forever—between the morning chaos, the long hours of work or childcare, and the evening hustle of dinner, baths, books, and bedtime, it can be exhausting. However, there are definitely some things that could make life just a little easier if they came our way. Here are 17 things that moms, especially those in my circle, will never say “no” to.

Someone Else Making Decisions: From the moment you find out you’re pregnant, every day becomes a series of choices: hospital or home birth? Work or stay at home? Extra playtime or takeout for dinner? If a robot could handle all these decisions and somehow still make the right ones, we’d be all for it.
A Day of Our Own Desires: Give us a day where everything is based on how we feel—our energy, hunger, and fatigue—without any obligations.
Twenty Minutes of Frozen Time: Imagine coming home after a long day and having everything pause for 20 minutes while we can unload the bags, take a breather, and get dinner ready. It would be pure bliss.
“Can I Hold the Baby While You…?”: Yes, please!
A Partner Bringing Coffee at 4:41 a.m.: Someone who will quietly rise with the kids and bring us coffee in bed? That’s a dream come true. (We’re still looking for this person!)
Friends Who Come to Us: Having friends willing to come over and hang out at our place is golden.
A Car Detail: Opening our car door often means a mini explosion of snack wrappers, toys, and who knows what else. If only someone could take care of that mess.
“Can I Grab You a Latte?”: Yes! Always yes!
Unlimited Shower Time: Remember the days when showers felt rushed and we had to prioritize washing body parts? A shower without a time limit sounds heavenly!
Offers to Do the Dishes: After dinner, if someone could just take care of the dishes, we’d be forever grateful.
Help with Toddler Teeth Brushing: Yes, please!
Unscheduled Moments: Sometimes, we just want a moment where we don’t have a to-do list nagging at us. A little peace after dinner would be amazing.
Gassing Up the Car: This is especially appreciated when we have kids strapped in the back and can’t leave them unattended while we fill up.
Alone Time: Whether it’s for a bathroom break, some reading, or even a shopping trip without a toddler in tow—alone time is a treasure.
Partners Taking the Kids Out: A little time away from the kids while our partners take them to their parents’ house? Yes, please!
Girls’ Weekend: After so much time being “Mom,” a girls’ weekend where we can just be friends sounds perfect.
Free Babysitting: This is the ultimate gift! While we love a good date night, babysitting costs can really add up, making free babysitting an absolute must.

If you had to pick from these 17 things, free babysitting would undoubtedly be the top choice we’d never turn down.
