It’s probably not what you think
As a company built by moms, for families, we get it—Mother’s Day can be complicated. You’re the behind-the-scenes producer of birthdays, holidays, school events, and Sunday mornings. So when your day rolls around, it’s often up to you to make that feel special too.
We asked moms in our community (and in our own office) what they really want for Mother’s Day. The responses? Honest, grounded, and deeply relatable. Spoiler: Most moms aren’t asking for much—just a moment to breathe, reconnect, and be cared for the way they care for everyone else.
Here’s what they told us
1. “A night at a swanky hotel in downtown Austin and a double hot stone massage… with dinner.” —@sugar168
Luxury and quiet? Say less.
1. “Order in dinner. No cooking but also, not having to go out.” —@Lindsay
The dream: zero effort, maximum comfort.
2. “Not cleaning, just soaking in time with my well-behaved, not pouting or fighting family.” —@msstradleyjohnson
No tantrums, no mess—just vibes.
3. “Nothing extravagant. I want to be able to sleep in.” —@katie
If you know, you know.
3. “Breakfast in bed, do absolutely no housework and minimal childcare 😂. Get a Hearth Calendar as a gift 🤞.” —@nahomibench
This mom’s got it figured out.
4. “Literally anything—as long as I don’t have to plan it.” — @thescanlanstory
So relatable. Planning fatigue is real.
5. “I love a nice balance of spending time with family butttt I also really enjoy having a few hours to myself.” —@angela
Connection and alone time? The ultimate combo.
6. “Read a book without being interrupted.” — @reagan
’Court of Thorns and Roses’ and a glass of wine, please.
7. “A big fat cat nap in the sun.” — @atsammcclaugh
Right meow!

This is exactly why we created Hearth—to help families delegate and distribute household responsibilities in a way that feels intuitive, supportive, and even fun for kids. Because when everyone pitches in, moms get to take a break without having to ask.
Here at Hearth, we have a bold idea: What if more days could look like Mother’s Day?
