About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

I became obsessed with mum hacks when a friend showed me a game-changing tip during my baby days - that baby vests can be pulled down (not up) in the event of an explosive poo. I couldn't believe I had been a mum for so long and not known! Things I Wish I'd Known will bring you hundreds of quick and clever solutions, just like this, all to make the parenting juggle easier.

You'll find my favourite hacks and habits, as well as dozens of new ones, all designed to give your day-to-day a lift. From cleaning hacks that leave your home sparkling in no time, laundry tricks that save you money, and simple tweaks to night-time routines which transform everyone's sleep, I'll show you how to hack every aspect of home-life so you feel less stress and more joy!

Editorial Review

Life hacks for parents
Social media influencer and “mum hacks” queen Emily Norris shares her favorite tips for keeping organised and calm in her listen Things I Wish I’d Known. When I first picked up this gem of an audiobook, I was hoping to take away a few strategies to tackle kitchen mess and plan a vacation—what I received was a comprehensive guide for navigating many of the day-to-day challenges that come with kids, everything from healthy meals for picky eaters to low-effort activities to keep little ones occupied for hours. Although I don’t have any children of my own—except my cats—I walked away with plenty of helpful how-tos for housekeeping. Plus, now I know exactly what to gift the parents in my life (and how to tie a tie). — Rachael X., Audible Editor
