Best All in One Planner: Wonderland 222 Planner or Erin Condren Petite Planner
Wonderland 222 or Erin Condren Petite Planner System. Both of these have enough flexibility so you can customize the planner you need all in one cover. The Wonderland 222 planner and notebook was my planner peace in 2022 because as the best bullet journal planner and best planner for ADHD, it really allowed me to capture all my random ideas in one system (they both fit in this cover) without making it a huge super heavy planner to take with me on the go. The Tomoe River Paper is only 52 gsm and very lightweight. The Erin Condren Petite Planner system allows you to combine 4 different planners or journals together to customize your planning needs.
Best Planner for Working Moms: Full Focus Planner or Dapperdesk by Emily Ley
Full Focus Planner (quarterly undated) or Dapperdesk by Emily Ley (yearly, dated, they sell out quickly). Both planners have a full day for Saturday and Sunday planning which I think is essential for working parents as there’s always a lot to do on weekends between kids activities and catching up on home routines. Use code TANYA10 for 10% off your first purchase in the Full Focus Planner store.

Best Home Planner: Passionate Penny Pincher Home Planner
Passionate Penny Pincher Home Planner (if you don’t mind Bible verses or scripture) is a checklist lover’s dream. Household maintenance, cleaning and organizing checklists are done for you, you just have to do your best to follow along. This planner helped me in 2021 to establish the home cleaning and laundry routine that works for my energy and family. I keep my home planner on my kitchen counter as my home command center so the boys know what’s going on and they can help me check household chores off the list each week. It also includes monthly notes pages, monthly checklists, bill payment schedules and budget worksheets. The 2023 home planner launched on September 18, 2023 and the physical planner does sell out so grab it if you think it will help you. Passionate Penny Pincher also has a money planner that is worth checking out at the same time so you can bundle your purchase and save more. The PPP money planner is especially great for moms who are on a tight budget or want to get into a budgeting routine.

The Wonderland 222 Planner has done for you yearly, quarterly and monthly trackers, monthly reviews and overviews and weekly layouts for moms who like all those bullet journal trackers but don’t want to draw them all out out. In addition, the planner has 90 undated/daily pages that can be used for bullet journal collections or daily planning on extra busy days. You can pair it with an additional half year or full year undated notebook if you want a full page per day.

Best Budget Planner for Saving Money: Passionate Penny Pincher Money Planner
Again, if you’re a checklist lover and want someone to guide you through what to do to set financial goals, save money and figure out ways to earn more side money, then the Passionate Penny Pincher Money Planner is an awesome choice for you.
I love that each month has a theme to focus on, a monthly overview checklist to guide you through what to do and when to do it and theres a Facebook group to join to help you share ideas. This money planner comes with stickers and beautiful cash envelopes too which can be instrumental in helping you be mindful of where your money goes.
Best Budget Planner for Debt Reduction: The Budget Mom Budget by Paycheck Method
I used the Budget by Paycheck Method printable in 2019-2021 and it helped us achieve some huge financial goals. I prefer budgeting by paycheck instead of by month since it makes you focus on your budget more often. I printed them in an 8.5×11 binder and loved using the highlighting method to categorize my expenses. This made it fun for me so I stuck with it. Because all of the budget by paycheck physical planners ship priority shipping (it was $20 for me), I do recommend the printable version so you can print what you need as much as you want for your financial situation.
