Helping Hands Personal Services

Nancy will inspire you long after the job is done. You will learn from her and be able to organize thereafter all on your own. She followed up with a phone call to confirm that the donation truck picked up on schedule. Nancy is amazing and I asked for more business cards to give to friends. I have discovered that getting rid of old furniture is getting difficult. Most donation sites are full at the moment. This is NOT Nancy's problem and I am still working on finding a home for an old, wooden desk.

Great! Nancy was friendly and very professional. Moving to a new home can be stressful for anyone, and Nancy's calm demeanor and efficient packing technique was a huge blessing! She was available on short notice, arrived early, was extremely flexible, was able to set to work immediately, and was comfortable working on her own while we worked on other tasks. It was a great experience, and I would definitely recommend her to anyone. My husband was initially concerned with the price of her services, but after the move was completed, he admitted that we could have used her assistance for another day or two...and that the work she did was worth twice what we paid :) I agreed!

ON FIRST VISIT NANCY ORGANIZED GARAGE, PACKED SOME ITEMS ,TOOK ITEMS TO TRASH THEN SWEPT GARAGE.AFTER SEEING THE GREAT JOB SHE DID, I HAD HER BACK AT LEAST 4 MORE TIMES. SHE HEIPED PACK, TRANSPORT ITEMS AND HELPED UNPACK.NANCY DOES AND OUTSTANDING JOB .WELL WORTH THE MONEY. I WILL CONTINUE TO USE HER TO HELP ME GET ORGANIZED IN MY NEW HOME.

Nancy did an amazing job! Highly recommend.

Unfortunately, this review is being written over 4 years after the service. The woman was pleasant and helpful and knowledgeable. I don't remember much else.

Nancy first came to my house for a consultation and I set up an appointment with her to begin work the following week. She arrived on time and went right to work. She worked fast but kept me involved in the sorting process, checking in with me to see if the pace was too fast. She made it easy for me to make decisions about what to keep and what to sell, give away, recycle or trash by asking questions about each item's usage, and she did it in such a kind, nonjudgmental way. I like that she even carted off the items to be recycled. Very professional. I intend to keep using her services until my mountain of stuff becomes a mole hill. I would definitely recommend.

I could not be happier with the service she provides. I would certainly recommend and use her again. Nancy is very professional, efficient, and friendly. She sets dates and times for services and always meets her commitments. I thoroughly enjoyed working with her and getting to know her. You will be very pleased if you choose her for your needs. My new place is so organized. It is easy to follow the pattern she set and keep it that way. Thanks so much Nancy.

Nancy is the best. She is extremely nice and easy to work with. She is so organized and professional. She was here on time and maximized the use of time very well. She worked really hard and efficiently. She met and exceeded my expectations. I will be having her help me throughout the move including final packing and unpacking. Dates already scheduled. Thank you Angie's list for making it possible to find such qualified resources.

Nancy was amazing, never stopped working, very organized, concerned with our wants & needs of where things should go and what we could get rid of.

Nancy did a great job of cleaning out and organizing my garage. Before she started, she came by for a consultation and recommended that I purchase 5 metal shelves from Lowe's. She even sent me an e-mail advising me that they had gone on sale, and I did indeed purchase the shelving at the sale price. However, when she was done with the job, she was only able to use 4 of the shelves. I had no room for another shelf, either in my garage or in my house, and could not take the shelving back to the store to return it because it was too heavy. I had the shelves delivered to my house in the first place. Nancy was kind enough to take the extra shelf back to Lowe's for me. As far as the actual organizing of the garage, Nancy did a great job. There were a few items that she placed in boxes or storage containers that I wasn't aware of, but that was a minor glitch. She also labeled all of the containers and boxes. I can now actually park my car in my garage.

Nancy came out for a complimentary consultation to understand the work involved and make suggestions/recommendations. I had a tough job, but Nancy worked with me to accomplish the goal for the day. She was efficient, knowledgeable on wht questions to ask to better get me what I needed. She kept me focused, and was easy to to work with. I liked her so much I am hiring her to do the rest of my house. I highly recommend Nancy.

I liked her. She organized our new master bath and then our laundry room. She was quick and professional.

Spoke with lady, she explained what they would do and they would only advise you and not do it for you. I did not want this service.

Nancy first came to see me to give me a free estimate and review what I needed. The stacks of paper in my office were as high as Mt. Everest. She set about tackling and getting rid of mounds of paper, organizing my books and materials, needed for my job. We also cleaned out tons of excess computer equipment, old books and disks, a good number of which I was able to donate. She also cleaned out and organized the closet that I use as a workstation. We also cleaned out my old files and set up new ones for myself as well as family members, for whom I also keep records. To give you an idea of the mess, it took two 4 hour sessions. She enjoys seeing everything neat and organized and when I was ready to give up on a particular project, she saw it through. I now have a clean office where I can work and a filing system that suits my needs. Thank you, Nancy.

Nancy did an outstanding job. She is comfortable to have in your home and works efficiently and does excellent work. She almost works non-stop with the briefiest of breaks.

Nancy was amazing. She made an exploratory trip to my home before I hired her. For items larger than normal, she took measurements so she could do further research later. Nancy was amazing. She arrived as planned, on time, and prepared with extra items that may be needed. She worked nonstop until the job was done. I was so impressed I asked her to come to our new home to help me un-pack and set up my kitchen. Once we got started, I asked Nancy to help me with much more than just the kitchen. She has a friendly, warm personality and a fantastic work ethic. We are in temporary living quarters and I intend to call Nancy to help me when we move again. It was a pleasure to work with her!

My overall experience with Nancy was excellent. I?m a busy person and I tend to procrastinate when it comes to keeping things in order in my household. Too be honest, I would probably be considered a fairly disorganized person. Being disorganized can be embarrassing, but Nancy never made me feel awkward or embarrassed. She was open, honest and compassionate. And rather than being critical she provided advice, support, and solutions. My kitchen had a number of issues. Not enough storage and what storage I had was not well used. Spices, baking goods, kitchen utensils; I had a lot of stuff in my kitchen but couldn?t always find what I needed. My ?junk drawer? was the epitome of junk drawers. It had a lot of stuff I needed and used, but could rarely find. And when I could find what I was looking for, good luck putting things back and getting the drawer to close. To say it was frustrating would be kind. Nancy helped me work through the process of identifying what I needed and what was just taking up space. She helped me prioritize. She helped me let go of things that I never used but just kept around for reasons unknown. Anyway, there is now a place for everything and usually everything is in its place. I have always liked my kitchen and enjoyed cooking. But the experience for me is better now because I can get what I need when I want it with no more frustration. And that makes my kids happy too. Nancy was a great person to work with. She had a positive, can do attitude that I appreciated. She listened to what my needs were, took the time to personally review my situation (kitchen nightmare) and formulated a plan that not only made the space organized, but gave me the tools and processes I needed to keep it that way. I even like my ?junk drawer? now! But if you were to look inside it, you wouldn?t recognize it for what it was because it doesn?t look like a junk drawer anymore. It?s the most organized junk drawer I?ve ever seen. And the price was more reasonable than I expected. I thought it would be much more based on comparison shopping that I did. It was definitely a good value.

My closet was a cluttered, dusty mess. I had way too many items of clothing, purses, accessories, shoes -- you name it. I think there were 5 umbrellas. Nancy dusted all shelves, each shoe cubby and helped me donate so many items of clothing, shoes, etc. , stuff I haven't seen or used in at least a year. She then went with me to The Container Store to purchase bins to keep my purses in order by type on shelves, dust free. I was so happy with the work she did -- now I have a closet that is neat, organized, and I can actually see the variety of clothing, etc to choose from every day. She was worth every penny and worked from 10 - 5:30. (I'd have given up after a couple of hours if I was on my own and I still have a disaster in my closet) Now, I want to have her help me sort out my garage when and if it is cooler in the fall. Thank you, Thank You!!

Right on time and the whole job was done!

There was efficiency. She did as well organization and packing for me.

Nancy got to work immediately and stayed busy the whole time. She got stumped one time on how to organize one little area, but instead of wasting any time thinking about it, Nancy told me when she gets stuck, she just starts on another area and comes back to it later. That's what she did and not waste a minute. Nancy got all my little sacks of screws, wires, and just stuff put in neat boxes where I could find everything. She never tried to talk me into throwing something i wanted. She is so efficient and good at what she does, that I would not hesitate to recommend Nancy to others…which is what I did! My neighbors are impressed and trying to think of how they could put her to work for them.

The only company that I have actually used that I got off of Angie's List was the organizer, it is Nancy. She was great. I think she charged me about 40 bucks an hour and I used her for about 4 or 5 hours. She also did the shopping which was hugely helpful. She was great. She is quite knowledgeable about what she does. She is easy to talk to. She is one of those people that knows how to work with an appropriate level of autonomy and input. She is not like the bossy type who thinks she knows everything. She really does what your input is, what you want and then she makes suggestions and does it based out of her expertise. If there are some things that she knows better from her experience, she talked about it. She is just great to work with. The price was good to me. I didn't expect it to be that reasonable. It was good. Another thing that Nancy did and I appreciated was that I was moving into a new home. In my head I had container store and those kind of stores in my head, and she was like there are a lot of things that would work just as well and save you a lot of money. I appreciated that, her input and the conversation as well. I don't remember her being late. She gets straight 'A's and for follow up too. She sent a letter and everything afterwards. I would definitely use her again in the future.

Nancy is a force of nature. Thank God there are people who love to organize because I'm not one of them :-). Both my wife and I have the "pack rat" gene. Not only did she come in and get everything sorted out, but she also hauled away those things that could be donated and made sure to give me a receipt for my taxes. I will definitely be using Nancy again in the future because I have plenty of "opportunities" in the house that she has yet had a chance to discover :-)

Put my kitchen to gather and it works!

She arrived on time and got right to work. She was amicable and worked quickly and efficiently. We will be using her again.
