Kids are great and all, but let’s face it – they take up quite a bit of your time/space/attention/hours-of-your-once-regular-sleep-cycle.
And because of that, we see parents using Airtasker in all sorts of creative ways to buy back a little of their precious time.
We challenged a few popular parent bloggers to see how they’re using Airtasker!
1. The Unfinished Task
Even with the best of intentions, some projects are difficult to execute when you’ve got mini-people running around everywhere. Stuart’s a coffee-fuelled Dad who knows all about it – so used Airtasker to help sort out his mountain of potentially-useful materials in the shed. Unfinished business, sorted.
2. The Last Minute Party
Between the day-to-day mayhem of raising three children, Anthea wanted to throw her kids a party for their friends to all get to know each other. But parties take time to plan! Busy Mums like Anthea are using Airtasker creatively, even for partying planning help and a little assistance on the day!
3. A Lack of Time
A huge reason people turn to Airtasker is down to a lack of time, skill or will for sorting the tasks themselves. Things like hanging pictures, putting up shelves and re-organising rooms in the house are popular tasks we see plenty of.
4. The Fear of Flat Pack
Got an aversion to flat pack? You’re not alone, with over 33% of people admitting they’re not comfortable doing it themselves. Couple that with a few screaming toddlers and you’ve got yourself a recipe for disaster. Mums like Louise are turning to Airtasker for help with their flat pack regularly – it’s one of our most popular types of task.
5. The Big Project
Calling in the calvary whilst working around your already-busy schedule can be challenging, but sometimes it’s a must. Even if you’re taking on a lot of the renovation yourself – Airtasker can be a great way to outsource various elements of a wider project. We’ve got people with the skills on the platform to complete any type of job, just try us!
