I am a mother of three; a seven-year old girl and four-year-old twin boy and girl. Two years ago, I was completely overwhelmed, and though my house was relatively clean, it was a mess! I looked into hiring an organizer, and was attracted to Jen?s elementary school background. She sat with me, listened to my habits and concerns, and formulated a plan for organizing the kid?s rooms and mine. We worked together, and not only cleaned up those rooms, but also worked on our playroom and garage as well. She also sat down and taught my children how to clean up, and set up a reward system so that we could maintain the clean. My house still gets a little messy, but thanks to Jen, I now have a plan so that we can reset each of the rooms and get everything back into its place. I have already recommended her to all my friends, and I will continue to do so. Thanks Jen!! What room shall we work on next...?
Description of Work: We worked together to clean my garage.

Jen is absolutely wonderful. Over the years, with 4 growing boys and all of their activities, I had lost total control over our living space. I had gotten to the point where I didn't know how to even attempt to try to get things back in order. Jen came in like a whirlwind and space by space we are getting my home back to where we deserve to be, with a place for everything and everything in it's place. She has even gotten the boys on board and they are full of pride over their accomplishments in keeping their rooms neat and clean! I can feel my sanity returning, and it is worth every penny! At our last session we even managed to do all three of the boys rooms in just over 5 hours! What a worker and motivator! I simply cannot say enough positive things about Jen. She is turning this Type B personality's life around. Thanks Jen!
Description of Work: Home organization, closet clean outs, designed a reward system to keep the boys on task and to keep them from reverting their spaces.

It is a work in progress. As my finances enable me Jen is working with me to make my house the beautiful home it use to be. And my life is getting better by leaps and bounds. Along with losing the clutter I have lost twenty two pounds! Imagine that!Jen is MY SPECIAL ANGEL!
Description of Work: Jen is one of the smartest, kindest, helpful people I have ever encountered in my life. She has taken my life from total paralyzing disorganization into an uplifting light of hope. I suffer from severe depression and had lost my way in a house that was once so organized I couldn't go to sleep with a dirty glass in the sink. Single and the mother of two children, clutter crept it's way into my life over the past 15 years. I was so overwhelmed I didn't know where to start. Jen came in, evaluated my situation, and with the greatest kindness and sensitivity, started me on the path to a better life. It is a work in progress. Every visit she is prompt, and ready to work, with a smile on her face, even if I am not! Some days I can only go three hours and she will go six solid hours of hard work. She doesn't push me past my limit. She is considerate of my disability.She recognized how overwhelmed I was and so she gives me small projects that I know I can accomplish. This way I see light at the end of the tunnel on every visit, while she takes the burden of the overall, paralyzing situation and controls the total vision.On her first visit she completely reorganized my kitchen while I sat and sorted paperwork into recycle, trash, file and shred. It was wonderful! Next she organized my living room and dining area. Then she started my master bedroom, oh what a job she did!
