A woman dubbed a “super mum” has shared an eye-opening video showing what it takes to get triplets and a toddler to bed.

The 2-minute time-lapsed video shows 26-year-old Corrie Whyte from Ontario, Canada, contending with her triplets Jackson, Olivia and Levi, and toddler Emily as she attempts to get them dressed.

As she races to get one of the eight-month-old infants into a tiny onesie, the other babies crawl about the bed.

Meanwhile, two-year-old Emily hops about the room – jumping on the bed and running around the room.

At one point the mother runs after the toddler after she disappears out of the shot.

After finally getting the children into their pyjamas, she jokingly collapses on the bed beside them.

The video was shared on The Baby Gang Facebook page, which called Whyte a "super mom". It has been viewed over 43million times, and shared by over 805,000 users.

Over 95,000 Facebook users have commented on the video, with many praising the mother for her patience and good humour.

One user called Denise Marie Kozina Calcaterra wrote: "I'm exhausted watching".

Ms Whyte said that caring for her children is “so much fun” and she tries to “make every experience enjoyable”.

“Right now the hard part is finding the balance between the needs of three 8-month-old babies and one 2-year-old toddler. They all want your attention, while going in four different directions,” she told ABC News.

She added that she couldn’t do it all without the help of her husband Dan Gibson who “has been involved in every way from the very beginning”.
