What is a professional organizer?

The National Association of Professional Organizers (NAPO) define a professional organizer as someone who helps people take control of their surroundings, their time, their paper and their systems for life.

What is a NAPO?

The National Association of Professional Organizers (NAPO) is the leading authority dedicated to the field of organizing. It’s mission is to develop, lead and promote professional organizers and the organizing industry. NAPO began in 1985 and has grown to over 4000 members in 32 chapters nationwide. NAPO defines quality standards and provides education for its members to ensure the highest level of excellence and professionalism. For more information visit www.napo.net.


How does it work?

After our initial contact I arrange for a needs assessment to evaluate your organizing goals and challenges and what you want to accomplish. Together we identify the areas of your home or office that you would like to get organized. I then develop and create a step by step action plan outlining a strategy to provide you solutions for a more organized life. I work “hands on” with you in your space to clear the clutter, sort and categorize your things and establish systems to store and organize these items for greater efficiency and maximum usability.

How long will it take to get organized?

Its important to remember that it most likely took some time, perhaps years  to accumulate most of the clutter you’re now experiencing. Don’t despair! It won’t take that long to regain control. A lot depends on the size of the space, the items involved and the present level of disorganization. Most organizing sessions last in length of three (3) to six (6) hours and prove sufficient amount of time to accomplish small projects. Larger projects require additional hours and are usually scheduled in multiple sessions to achieve your desired result.

What about your privacy and confidentiality?

I respect you and your environment. Any and all information acquired through my services is kept in strict confidence. I abide by the National Association of Professional Organizers Code of Ethics.

Do you need to be present during an organizing session?

Developing and executing an effective organizing plan requires us to work together in establishing systems for long lasting results. Your needs are unique and your lifestyle is as individual as you are. Your input is essential in creating a customized solution that works for you.

What can you expect after we’re finished?

You’ll have greater control of your space, your information and your things. You’ll have more time to pursue important goals. You’ll feel less stressed and frustrated. You’ll save money and accomplish more. You’ll have a simpler more successful life. You’ll be more organized!
