Five Ipone Apps To Help You As A Working Mum

By:


Tens of thousands of applications are there to really help us enjoy our iPhones. It's not too much of a stretch to say that the iPhone has completely revolutionised the way that we communicate.

Other manufacturers are struggling to keep up with the popularity of the iPhone and much of its dominance appears to be associated with the sheer number of applications that we can enjoy.

These applications run the gamut and allow us to do virtually anything with our iPhones! These are the apps that no working mum with an iPhone should miss out on.

If you have a new arrival, consider Baby Brain. This iPhone app allows you to log and track breast-feeding, diaper changes, sleeping patterns. It's rather easy to set up and you can just tap the screen when an event starts and ends, as you record according to configured parameters. When you are breast-feeding, you can easily look and see which side baby fed from last! The app even has a timer which will alert you when you are breast-feeding; if for example you are working on a project at the same time.

This one is ideal if you are working to a budget - ShoppingPal prompts you to take a picture of an item that you might have your eye on, type in a few details - maybe the price, the size or other important details, and save for future use. When you are comparing prices at different shops, you no longer have to remember which store offered which deal. You know how stressful this can all be if you have kids in tow or have little time to spend anyway as you balance family issues with your work.

Creative minds abound in the world of iPhone application development. Put your IPhone next to your baby when he is sleeping. You can set a sound sensitivity level and if the noise from your sleeping baby dips below this, your iPhone will call you on a number you have defined. Baby Phone Deluxe works great as a baby monitor.

How about Scribble Lite if you are on a road trip? This app is a bit like the Etch-a-Sketch toys from the 1960s, and gives your kids a virtual easel on which to draw and paint. Just give your iPhone a shake and the screen is clean again.

Kindle for iPhone allows you to download full-length books and read when you have time. Forget about carting around a bag full of books on journeys or as you're just out and about with the kids. These apps allow you to pick the work up and put it down whenever you need to, inserting a virtual place-holder wherever you pause.

Isn't it great how technology can help to make the life of a working mum easier? You might also investigate professional coaching for women. If you have never considered online life coaching before, you will be amazed how it can make you even more productive.
