Self-Care & Creating Calm Hi I'm Lisa! I'm a very supportive and empathetic person and I understand that you're most likely overwhelmed. Where we spend our time, live and work has a profound effect on our health, our stress levels, our energy levels & essentially how we feel. My aim is to help you feel happier, calmer and have more time to do what you love! I help create order in my clients homes, sometimes it is their entire house, or may be just one room, or their wardrobes/kitchen, often starting in the area that is causing the most stress and anxiety, I am able to organise your home in the way you need, want and love. I know first-hand how challenging it can be to try and keep a well organised home and keep on top of everything else. Feelings of overwhelm, being 'Time Poor' and simply feeling there are not enough hours in the day'¦ Attempting to spin all the plates 'so to speak' to meet your work& family needs, and let's not forget your own needs, perhaps you have children or pets and you may end up feeling like a passenger in your own life! I learned so much during the time my daughters were growing up, and ultimately we must not lose ourselves along the way. Everyone should have a home that is their sanctuary, where they feel relaxed, this really is a key ingredient to good health and happiness. Perhaps you have tried to be 'everything to everyone' putting your own needs to the bottom of the pile, this is obviously not conducive to good health. If we try to do everything, we can't enjoy anything. During my work with you, I will help you re-evaluate your lifestyle - so you can make the necessary adjustments and move forward constructively. Before starting my Professional Organising Business, I was a Personal Assistant to the Managing Director of an Airfreight and Haulage business for over 22 years. As you can imagine, this required due diligence, excellent organisational skills and patience! This role required me to communicate with people from all over the world, manage my time impeccably and of course, be incredibly organised. Being organised is truly in my nature and I'd love to use my knowledge and experience to help YOU regain control of your space and in turn your life. House Moves & Home Styling I have managed many house moves, I have developed excellent systems for managing moves, from local moves to international moves. From decluttering beforehand, styling/staging a home to attract buyers and achieve the best price, to packing, project managing the whole process and getting organised when in the new home. I know it seems like a huge mountain to climb but a house move can be a wonderful fresh start, I am able to use my expertise to take the stress out of your move. Long Term Maintenance To make a permanent positive difference to your life, I will encourage you to form new habits. After working with me, I aim to enable you to move forward towards a more enjoyable life. You deserve to work and live in an environment that makes you feel Good! If you don't know exactly what you need and you would like an informal chat, I'd love to hear from you and discuss how I can help you. Or if you know exactly what you need, call me or email and we can discuss a plan. I help people take back control of their homes and their lives. I help them become: 'The Captain of Their Own Ship' I specialise in the following area's:

Ultimately my goal is always... to help people, to live happier lives. Whether they need help with creating order in their home, or whether they need help to 'manage' their lifestyle, their wardrobe, their sense of style. I am passionate about helping people achieve their goals. We are all unique, every client that comes to me is different. I will listen to you, I will discover from you, what is causing you, anxiety, stress, discomfort. Listening is key, I am able then to guide you towards solving those problems. If it is your home that is the problem, I will help/teach you to resolving those issues. I work with clients from all walks of life, some bursting with zest and confidence, others who are shy and reserved, and many in between, some know exactly what they want and need, others do not know where to start, and just reaching out for help has been a big step! Either way I can help you. I have a passion to help people 'feel better' sometimes it is their home that is causing them stress and anxiety and so I am able to assist, I love home staging and interior design, colours, shapes, textures, looking at what the client is passionate about, what they love, what they need. I have been fortunate to help many clients in this regard, coupling together my organisational skills with my flair for interior design. To help create a vision of the home you want. Also I use a software tool, with a 3D image facility, so that I am able to import floor plans and demonstrate to clients different furniture lay-outs, importing your furniture sizes or that of anything you want to purchase, so that if you are in doubt about what to purchase, you can clearly see what will fit in any given space. The software allows me to introduce colours, which enhances the experience of what a room may look like. I am able to help with 'Home Staging', if you are moving home this can be particularly helpful, to gain the best possible price, by making your home as attractive as possible to potential buyers, taking the stress away during what can be a time-consuming, stressful and emotional time for many people. For some clients it is their clothing, their self-worth, their sense of style, they lack confidence, they have low self-esteem, they need their wardrobes organised, so that they have visibility of the things they love, together we weed out what does not make you feel good, we look at colour and texture. We can shop together, we create outfits that make you feel much happier and confident, we work with accessories to complete your specific sense of style. I absolutely love my work, seeing the difference it makes to my clients lives, whether I become a clients personal trainer, for their home, their wardrobe, their life management, or all of these, I am here to help.
Specialisms
Move Management
I am a manager with 'The Senior Move Partnership' so am able to understand the needs of elderly clients who may have lived in a property for many years, and find it exceptionally hard to 'let go' of their belongings. I have extensive experience in this field, fully trained by TSMP and assist with everything from downsizing, to removals, floor planning using a software tool and unpack assistance, as setting up a new home is especially important, engaging with auction houses, helping with donations to charity, sale of cars, and any other specific requirements can be discussed.
In addition I have assisted many families, particularly busy professionals, who are 'time-poor' to manage their moves whether upsizing or downsizing... actually 'Rightsizing' for their needs, in every aspect of their move and also with setting up the new home and provide support in whatever capacity is needed.
Home Staging
I have a vast amount of experience in assisting clients with staging their homes, sometimes in preparation for a sale to gain the best possible price for a property and sometimes purely to achieve the most desirable look aesthetically and to maximize the space and functionality of a home.Sensitive, calm and honest, Lisa has a natural ability to organise that evades me! Producing order from what could only be described as chaos in my house! Thank you!Jenny Appleby
Our house was on the market for 4 months with little interest, Lisa staged our home and we couldn't believe the results! We were super happy when we received 3 offers on our house, in the week after. We highly recommend Lisa! Amy Stone
