As we previously told you, 63% of Americans think being a stay-at-home mom is a job. Well, if it’s a job, how much should mom get paid?

Well, a new report by Salary.com has determined what the salary of a stay-at-home mom should be.
According to the survey, the average stay-at-home mom worked 106 hours a week last year due to the pandemic.
Data shows a fair market salary for such work would be $184,829.
That number is an increase from $178,201 in 2019, but moms were only averaging about 96.5 hours a week then.
In fact, over the past decade, the average was about 96 hours a week.
Of their many roles, moms report the most time consuming is Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer, which takes over 20 hours a week.
Overall, stay-at-home moms take on 20 different positions, including Housekeeper, Laundry Manager, Assistant Athletics Director, Staff Nurse, Conflicts Manager and more.
And if 106 hours sounds like a lot, the report notes that the 75thpercentile of moms actually say they’ve worked 117 hours per week.
Even working moms have been extra busy this past year, spending 54 hours per week on top of their regular job, which means they worked 107 hours a week between work and home.
