This is how much NYC stay-at-home moms would earn if they were paid for hard work: study

Do the dishes, do the mopping — stay-at-home moms are always hopping. 

But their Cinderella-like duties actually equate to sizable chunks of change, according to a new study. 

Specialists from Beike Biotechnology, an international adult stem-cell laboratory, recently determined the monthly incomes that homemakers worldwide should be earning for all their hard work. 

And, according to the findings, the real housewives of New York, who barely get a “thanks,” should be making bank, honey! 

“To understand the immense value stay-at-home parents have in homes around the world, we set out to quantify the time they spend on their tasks each month,“ wrote the study authors, who evaluated the daily to-dos of unpaid mothers with up to four children in 80 major cities. 

NYC mommies landed in the eighth spot in the top 10 global locations where SAHMs are the most valuable. 

Domestic engineers of the Big Apple do just over $4,300 in home and childcare chores every 30 days, per the report.  

But the would-be earnings of Gotham moms trail behind that of women in hotspots such as Zurich, Switzerland. 

The study listed the European destination as the No. 1 city where mothers carry out the most work each month, totaling more than $5,700 in labor.

Full-time parents in Basel, Switzerland, scored second-place honors, completing a staggering $5,200 in regular must-dos. 

“We analyzed the full range of household tasks, including cleaning, shopping, cooking and laundry,” the clinicians said of their report, adding that they also looked at “childcare tasks such as transportation, emotional support, tutoring and planning.”

Stay-at-homers in San Francisco, California, took the third-highest ranking, where the West Coast mamas are churning out $5,196.76 worth of work. 

No-days-off mothers in Washington, D.C., and Los Angeles also secured prime spots on the top 10 chart. 

The investigative team also calculated what the overall cost of outsourcing the tasks performed by stay-at-home parents would be over the course of a child’s upbringing. 

“We assumed a 20-year timeline per child and imagined any additional children were born at two-year intervals thereafter,” said researchers. “A stay-at-home parent with four children was therefore calculated to work for 26 years.”

And based on their calculations, SAHMs with four children living in New York City could amass more than $1.45 million after raising a family for nearly three decades. 

Moms helming households have howled over the hassles of the thankless job.  

At the top of the year, a housewife caring for her three sons — ages 8, 6 and 18 months — virally blasted ChatGPT for spitting out cutesy images of what a “stay-at-home mom looked like in 2024.” 

The disenchanted domestic deemed the AI system’s romanticized understanding of her home life “bulls-t.”
