I'm Kate - a professional organiser & productivity coach based in Glasgow. I'm here to help you bridge the gap from overwhelmed to organised.
I've been involved in keeping family homes running smoothly since I was nineteen years old. I'm now dedicated to helping time-starved women to declutter, organise and simplify their homes so that they can make space for what matters most in their busy lives.
I have over 20 years of experience in PA & administrative support roles, am a proud member of the Association of Professional Declutterers & Organisers (APDO) and am the author of A Better Organised Home in 30 Days.*
I was voted Service Provider of the Year in 2019's East Dunbartonshire Business Awards and have appeared in Good Homes, Metro and Woman & Home.
I can work virtually or in-person to support you with decluttering and organising your home, office, paperwork and schedule.
When I'm not working, I cook, read about organisation and productivity, get outdoors with my husband and two young children or eat out with friends.
Please call or DM now for an initial, no-obligation chat about how I can support you on your decluttering journey.

I've worked with Kate several times for professional decluttering, organising and a house move! All I can say is WOW! If you could make a wish with a genie to declutter and organise a room -- Kate would be what you're looking for. In a short space of time, a room becomes a happy place to be. Highly recommended.
Kate is brilliant at what she does. We've spent the last two days decluttering and repurposing the space in my small flat and it looks like a different home! She's so warm and easy to get on with.
Kate was absolutely stellar. We were 3 hours into decluttering and I'd barely even noticed. At the end of the day, stuff was actually out of the house and donated, with a lovely update from Kate on how much we managed. There was also absolutely no judgement (and there were some scary skeletons in some closets) and Kate was kind enough to give me space to process when it got a bit too much. Brilliant, would highly recommend!
