Frequently Asked Questions

A professional organiser is a cross between an art curator and a librarian.

Organising involves sorting through each of the items in your home by editing and being mindful of the items that you really want to have around you to make your life more efficient and purposeful. Organising means deciding what will make you and your family happy, and how to find new homes for the rest of the stuff (sell, donate or discard). An organiser can help you set up the criteria to evaluate your possessions, from both financial & sentimental perspectives, and help decide what you really use or need in your home. An organiser then creates processes and systems which fit with your lifestyle and help you to easily locate items at any time in the future. An organiser will leave you with headspace to focus on the things that are important to you.

Not to start with. What type of storage/ organising equipment is required will become apparent as we start to work together. If appropriate, I will try and make use of what you have however, happy to make recommendations on storage/ organising equipment.
