residential space management

Signs you're ready for a change

Clutter at home interferes with your ability to meet personal and family demands - and those same demands keep you from getting organized.
Valuable items or papers get lost, mislaid bills go unpaid - and it's costing you.
Tasks or projects are sitting unfinished - and they're weighing on you.
You don't invite guests to your home because you're embarrassed — or because you can't make room for them.

My approach

We'll tour the space(s) you've decided to tackle and set realistic expectations. Together we'll sort through the piles and decide what needs to go where. I'll work with you to examine your needs, routines and habits. Together we'll design spaces and systems that work for you, to make daily tasks quicker and easier. Among my specialties:

paperwork and filing systems
inventory control for household items
kitchen and bathroom organization
new and working mothers

"I procrastinated for years in cleaning out my spare room, which had turned into a storeroom. Eventually I realized I couldn't handle it myself. I tried several professional organizers, but they did nothing for me. When a friend was coming to visit from California with her son, I literally had no place to put them. I had to do something. I'd heard Standolyn talk at a networking event about her hands-on approach, so I called her. With her help, I finally got my spare room back. Crossing this task off my list and keeping it off - after years of procrastinating-have given me such a feeling of accomplishment." — Roger Sturgis, Weston, Massachusetts
