Help is on the way with Mom Me Minute

This home support service offers practical help for overworked moms.

Mom Me Minute is a Charleston-based home support service offering hands-on help for modern mothers who are doing too much with too little support. Founded in 2024 by Liz Donovan, who spent a decade in corporate life and extensive travels, Mom Me Minute offers services that stem from a simple, personal truth: mothers don’t need more pressure; they need relief.

“You already have a home,” Liz said. “Let’s make it feel like a sanctuary, not a stressor. When your space is organized, your mental load becomes lighter. It does not disappear, but it gets quieter. And that creates something modern families are craving: presence. This is not about perfection. It is about showing up fully for your home, your people, your peace, and yourself.”

With warmth, empathy, and intuition, Mom Me Minute provides in-home support sessions tailored to each family’s rhythms and priorities. From organizational resets in pantries, playrooms, and closets to laundry care, meal prep, errands, bill management and budget organization, the support is practical, judgment-free, and designed for families in all stages of life.

“I want to normalize asking for help,” Liz said. “We live in a culture that still rewards doing it all alone—and women are quietly burning out because of it. When a mother is supported, the whole family functions better. And when families are stronger, communities are stronger.”

With maternal mental health challenges on the rise and traditional support systems stretched thin, this work has never been more vital. For many Charleston families—especially those far from extended help—Mom Me Minute offers more than assistance with chores. It creates breathing room, presence, and the capacity to enjoy everyday life more fully. Liz hopes Mom Me Minute becomes a small but powerful part of that shift here in Charleston. Not just by offering in-home relief, but by creating flexible, meaningful work for other women who want to support families while raising their own.
