WHEN IT'S TIME TO START DOWNSIZING AND ORGANIZING, GIVE ME A CALL:
Hello, and thank you for visiting my website to get more information on the services that I provide.
If you ask any of my family or friends what my natural gifts are, they would all say organizing and decorating. I have done this for many years and am passionate about helping and serving others in these areas.
SENIORS
With over 15 years of experience in the Senior Living industry, I have met with countless numbers of families as they were trying to navigate through the process of downsizing and a possible move into a smaller space. Or, they needed to create a safer environment in their own homes. I saw a definite need for the services that I can provide.
Many children of seniors live out of state or simply don't have the time necessary to help with these tasks as their parents transition to a new chapter of their lives. This can be very stressful, emotional and time consuming! This is my area of expertise and I am happy to help!
I can gently guide families through this process from downsizing, sorting, organizing, packing, unpacking and set up, and move coordination (if needed).
BOOMERS
Shout out to all of my fellow Boomers (HEY!). Have all of the chickadees flown the coop and you are now empty-nesters rattling around a big house? You live in only one-half of the house, but have the responsibility and chore of cleaning and maintaining the entire house. Are you drowning in clutter and ready to downsize? I can help you with this!
Did you know that reducing clutter can reduce your housework by 40%? Studies show that clutter also contributes to anxiety and stress which has an overall effect on our health, especially for women!
I am here to help not only declutter your home, but also to increase your productivity and reduce your stress and anxiety!
This can sometimes be a very emotional and overwhelming process, however, I am here to gently guide you every step of the way.
My mission is to provide you with a non-judgmental and confidential solution to your organizational and/or downsizing challenges and bring some peace, order and joy into your life!
