Work At Home Mom Office
When you are a work at home mom, and look after your toddler at the same time, you have to learn to multitask. You also have to multitask when it comes to decorating your home. Sure I would love for my office to be fully dedicated to me, and all of my stuff, but in reality I need an area for Noah to play while I work.
I thought it would be a good idea to add a little play area for him directly opposite from my desk. This way I can work and also watch him at the same time. I’ve been on the hunt for the perfect little table for him for awhile now, and I was really excited to find this one from At Home Stores. It’s so cute, and the perfect size for Noah. He loves to do his puzzles there!
I also needed something that I could store all of his toys in. I decided on a white piece of furniture that was really simple from At Home Stores, and got three little gray bins that I could fill up with toys. It’s easy for him to pull them out, and get his toys. It’s also nice because I can quickly put everything away at the end of the day, and my office stays looking clean.
What are your thoughts on the cow print? I’m not normally a cow person when it comes to decor, but when I saw this cute cow I couldn’t look away. I thought it was so cute. I had to have it. I walked around the aisles forever trying to find something else, and I was brought right back to “Moo Moo” as Noah has named her.
I added 3 hooks to hang some of my hats to give the area a bit more of a “fashion-blogger office” look, and to tie in the other side of the room which I hope to be revealing here on the blog soon! Thanks so much for stopping by guys. Have an awesome day!

It is such a juggle! Thanks so much!
What a beautiful space! We just moved into our home and I want to add a play area for my toddler to the office. This is giving me great inspiration!
I work at home with my two babies and I know how difficult it can be. I love this beautiful space you created for your boy.
It’s simple yet stunning!

I love the simplicity of this design! And those hats on the wall make such a great decoration piece! I can imagine how handy it will be to have a play area right there for your little one- such a great idea!

Wonderful looking room. I need to carve out a space just for me and my work. I am inspired.
Thanks so much Candy! It took me forever to finally carve out a space for myself, and I’m so happy I did!
I love how you set up a space for your son in the office! I also really like the idea of the hats on the wall, it’s so cute and give the right amount of color.

Thanks so much Rachel. Glad you liked it!
I am currently transitioning to working at home and I love how you included a space for your little one. This will be so important for me to be able to get things done! I love how you both have a space to work and be together!
Love this bright & airy space. You nailed it!

Your place looks beautiful! I love the neutral tones with the pop of color from your hats!
I love this space! I’m definitely struggling with how to combine my office and play space for my little guys and I think you’ve done such a great job with it!

Omg this is so cute! Can you please come decorate every space in my house?! I love how you added your hats! And the gray bins are so cute!! Love it:)
That is a seriously fun room. Just today I was looking around my home office and thinking that it needed some help. I don’t have a young one at home but it still needs sprucing up.
I love that you have your hats hanging on the wall- such a good way to store them!
Love your style! Beautiful office!
I have been hunting for a little table for the kid’s playroom for a while now and I LOVE this one! I will definitely be checking it out! We are moving into our new house in about 2 weeks and I have been trying to decide where to set up my workspace. I like the idea of doing it in the payroll so I can keep an eye on the kids!
I love how clean and bright this looks! My “office” is in our living room, so I can work and play with the kids, but I can’t have any quiet office time when they’re awake. 🙂
Such a clean and crisp space, love it!
What a beautiful post! Love the hats on the wall and the clean, simple details!
Aww, I love Noah’s new world. What a great idea and a super fun area for him to play in while you work! I’m sure this will give you many hours of productivity too! Great job!
I do everything I can to not have my kids in my space, but they are no longer toddlers. And I LOVE the cow. I saw a cow print today when shopping for decor and seriously almost bought it. Now I’m going back to get it. It;s going in the dining room though, not the office. LOL
Absolutely loved this post! Can you come decorate my house?? I love this room!
