I have worked with Linda more than once and have been so very pleased each time. The first time we…read moreused her was for prepping, packing and staging for a move. She was referred to us by our realtor and we were not disappointed. The second time we called her for help was recently to and store a ton of Christmas decorations. We had a family emergency and just could not get it done. All of this stuff was cluttering our dining room and it was adding to our stress. Linda was here just a couple of house and worked her organizational magic. I felt so relieved to have all of that stuff organized and stored away. Linda is very kind, professional, works quickly and gets so much done in a short amount of time. We have just been so pleased with her services and will always keep her number close by.

I am in awe of Linda's work!! It was truly magical how she not only restored order to an unruly…read morecloset but also somehow brought it to a new level of organization and sensible layout. I love that she used containers that were already there and quickly made them all work more efficiently and harmoniously to settle everything into its right place. There were so many different categories of "stuff" and like Mary Poppins, Linda charmed it all into happy cohesion. It was a very joyful experience to watch her make it all happen!! I want to do more rooms now and can't wait to hire Linda again. Great work!

Danna was a huge help in tackling the decluttering of my home. I needed help with my basement after…read moreyears of disorganization while raising small kids and found myself overwhelmed with way too much stuff we were no longer using. Danna was quick to make a plan, ask questions and provide insight on value or usefulness, point out what she could easily find a new place for or what was not worth saving, recommend products that would assist in organization and make suggestions for systems to help grow with our family that we could utilize after our work together was over. We made such progress after two sessions that we used the remaining sessions to focus on other areas of our home (closets, bedrooms, etc.) I also felt empowered after working with Danna to start organizing smaller spaces in between sessions. This project has made our home feel so much more relaxing and less chaotic. The mental benefit associated with getting our home organized can't be overstated. We also really liked working with Danna as she was able to get the items we were no longer using to people who needed them the most (refugee communities, other organizations) so we felt good about sending items off to get a second life. Would highly recommend Danna to anyone considering her services; she works fast and will help you accomplish your goals and feel more in control of your space.

Danna helped me organize and de-clutter our small apartment. One of the highlights was her…read moreingenious idea to install shelving in our basement storage unit so that we could more easily see and utilize the things in that space better. It was also a huge relief that of the many things I discarded for donation, she was able to take them with her the day-of so that I didn't have the extra task of needed to drop things off at various charities on my own. Danna is a very efficient and hard worker, and I felt like she really valued my time and wanted to make the most of it. Overall highly recommend working with Danna!

We went through all the items, got them cleaned out, donated items and then Liz organized, put them all into new bins and labeled absolutely EVERYTHING! I cannot believe how amazing it turned out, and I was beyond impressed. I would have never done this on my own, and cant wait to get into some other areas of our home.

Hiring Annette was absolutely the right decision! I wasn't sure exactly how a professional…read moreorganizer worked, but I knew I needed help. Annette made it so easy. She explained the process and answered all of my questions along the way. I wanted more than a refresh of closets and shelves. I wanted my whole house organized, starting in the attic and moving through the garage and the basement. I knew after the first session that I had hired the right person. Annette and her team have a really efficient system and were so supportive. They made quick work of what I found super overwhelming. In the end, my attic is EMPTY! My basement has storage space to spare and the laundry room is now a laundry room and not an overflow of random items that don't have a home. Everything I need is neatly categorized and labeled in our garage in the correct types of containers. Decorating for the holidays was easier than ever this year. Annette is a true professional. Very responsive, knowledgeable, and honestly, an organizational genius. Her prices were very reasonable and she was worth every penny!

I appreciated how easy Terri was to coordinate with - she even did a FaceTime with me before the session to give me some organization product ideas. Amy was our organizer on the day and she was lovely to work with. She helped us go through our master closet in a very nonjudgmental and straightforward way. She helped us donate almost 3 bags of items. We plan on working with Terri and her team again and would recommend for anyone to hire her for your organizing needs.

Four Years Later…read more.. The Chicago Organizer is still great at helping me get all of my stuff organized and manageable! After I moved house, I had so many rent-a-crates to unpack and return very quickly. I felt overwhelmed and couldn't move two feet without hitting a box, and unpacking by myself was too slow. I contacted Terri again. Terri couldn't come out to personally help me within my limited window of time, but she has fantastic team members. Kammy came to help me, stayed for just under five hours, and we unpacked every rent-a-crate plus all of the cardboard boxes! There is a little left to do in order to make my new place feel like home, but Kammy's help means that 95% of the work is done. I am so pleased with The Chicago Organizer. Terri and Kammy are kind, professional, quite fair in their pandemic requirements, and most of all -- HELPFUL. Money well spent again!

Helena is patient, knowledgeable, kind, thoughtful, respectful, creative, resourceful, visionary, organized, motivating... and so much more.

You will have that proverbial "weight" lifted from your shoulders.. Thank you Helena, for all you have done for me!

Love A Personal Organizer!…read more If you want to bring your home and life into peaceful order, I have 2 words..."Hire Helena". She is a fantastic organizer, business person and human being. I couldn't recommend her more. We have loved having her help in our new home. We have moved several times in the 20 (something) years we've been a family. The move to San Diego from the Midwest last fall was an exciting adventure that we were ready for. The moving company that we hired however, left much to be desired. To put it mildly, they were terrible. In reminiscing, I have said they might as well have used a backhoe and shovel our neatly organized house into the truck, shaken it across the country and dumped it into our garage. Worst physical move ever! Thank goodness that I found Helena's business in my Google search. She was kind and helpful from the very beginning. We worked together to bring order and reason back to our home and lives. It seemed an impossible task in the beginning, but with Helena's help, soon the spaces we focused on became organized and liveable. This kind of work can be very personal and difficult to manage, but Helena made it simple and smooth. We have worked very hard and achieved so much in a very short amount of time. I highly, highly recommend hiring 'A Personal Organizer' and Helena's awesome organizing and business skills. We are forever grateful to her.
