Heeellllppp! I've moved in recently and I am struggling to get things organized in a way that I can maintain them. Can anyone recomment a home organization consultant who can help me get it worked out at least once? Can you share your home organization stories, including maybe how much it cost you to get the job completely? I have ADD (and three kids 5 and under), so organization is a bit more of a challenge for me than for some people, but I've got to get it under control.
Thanks so much in advance!
F.,
A great web-site is www.flylady.net. It has great advice on how to get your house clean and organized and keep it that way without getting overwhelmed. I have found it very helpful especially when things get busy and I start to get behind on housework.
The container store has locations at Oak Brook Mall and near Woodfield. You can break the job into manageable pieces, one closet, or one room at a time. Their design service is free, and you can do it yourself, or let them do it for you. They have 30%off sales in January, and other times during the year as well. Good Luck!
Hi, F.! My name is K.. I have an in-home daycare which includes: my 3 yr old son, three 1.5 yr old girls & a 4 yr old boy. I LOVE every minute of it!!! With this being said, I have a pretty good system of organization down! I would love to help you get organized at a small cost. I could be available on the weekends (pretty flexible). If you're interested, feel free to e-mail me at ____@____.com. P.S. Before having my son, I taught 6th grade BD/ED (behaviorally/emotionally disordered) children. Just another insight to my personal experience of HAVING to be on-top of things...
