Meet Karen

I feel it’s my calling to help others who need to get their surroundings cleared of clutter – so they can find more peace, tranquillity and clarity in their lives.

What Is a Professional Organiser?
Professional organisers are those who can help you simplify your life by making your home or business run smoothly by getting rid of the clutter and can assist organising cupboards, drawers, files and entire rooms of homes. They make the most use of any space and find a place for everything.
This is a service that can take days or even weeks to complete, but will have your home looking cleaner and un-cluttered. Most of all, the service will make everything in your home and office easy to find and allow you to live much more efficiently.
You may be surprised at other services professional organisers offer. Each organiser has their own skill-set and personality. There are some who are also interior designers/decorators. Some are personal stylists and some are great with photo organising. Others offer specialised services, like counselling, working with hoarders, assisting those with disabilities including ADHD. The Institute of Professional Organisers can provide more information on highly complex or specialised services. I can also suggest who might be able assist. Please ask, I’m happy to help!

Karen is an exceptional Decluttering Organiser
She was an incredible support through an extremely stressful time when I felt overwhelmed by the enormity of the task of clearing all of my parents’ possessions, accumulated over 80+ years.
Karen tactfully steered me through effective processes to get through 90% of the task, including recommending we need an extra pair of hands and engaging a second organiser for two days.
I could not have gotten through this challenge without her professional skill and wonderful support.
Toy room declutter and organise:
…what we achieved in 6 hours what I have been unable to do in years.
I would like to thank you for the work that you did with me and my children to de-clutter their bedroom. They had accumulated so many toys! I didn’t know where to start. To my relief, what we achieved in 6 hours what I have been unable to do in years.
Workspace and personal living space:
“I feel so much better about my work-space and myself”
I appreciated Karen’s manner of advising me. She listened to me expressing my needs before she offered alternative ways to achieve my goals. This applied to my workplace and equally to my personal living space. Her advice was practical, achievable and immensely helpful. It will save me a lot of time.
Estate clearance – Bondi Junction
“Best money for peace of mind I ever spent”
I am an Australian living in California, an enormous ocean away from my mother’s apartment. The job involved my coming to Sydney for a week and a half to clear an apartment with 20 years’ worth of belongings–there was grief involved as well as pressure. It was recommended I should find an accredited organiser. Karen was recommended to me as someone who is reliable and competent.
All I can say was and is Karen was an answer to my prayers on so many levels. She is wise, sensitive, and discerning and gets what needs to be done, get’s done. She is not afraid of mess and clutter that to me was daunting. She understood my need to respect Mum’s things and make hard decisions about what needed to go. We moved all the goods in a few days, hired trucks, cleaners, removalists, and more–AND it seemed effortless.
Best money for peace of mind I ever spent.
The Benefits of Getting Organised & Clearing Clutter
Save money without overthinking
Once you get organisied, you’ll know what you already own, eliminating the need to buy duplicate items. Your professional organiser can also help you find the perfect organising products for your space and lifestyle, so you stop wasting money on items that just don’t work.
Be more productive at work with less effort
A professional organiser can create order and structure out of mess. You’ll be amazed at how much you get done in shorter amounts of time. And by focusing on your priorities and goals, with less distraction, you’ll be able to finally move ahead toward reaching them.
A smart way to decrease stress
When you can find what you need, are on top of your to-dos, and arrive on time, you’ll feel calmer and have more peace of mind. No more feeling over-whelmed by life — you’ll be the one in control.
Your wishes for time granted
When you’re organised, your days go smoother and you get a lot done. That leaves more time to indulge in things that are important to you.
Find lost treasures
Sometimes when you declutter you get surprised, in a good way, with what you find. I’ve seen people find cash, long lost jewellery and other sentimental items.
How long does it take?
The total cost and time of a project is dependent on several factors including:
The speed at which you make decisions.
The quantity of items, size of space.
Larger or more complex areas, like kitchens, home offices will take longer.
Generally, in 3-4 hours we can complete a small space such as a pantry or closet.
