Hello! I'm Sarah, the one on the right, and the Sampson in Sampson & White Organising.
Anna (White) and I work to support you in lightening your load, and relieving your stress and overwhelm, through decluttering and organising your space, or supporting you pre or post move.
What's important to you is important to us, and we will always tailor our services to you, your needs and your goals.
Our experience:
We've worked with a variety of people, such as busy families, overworked individuals, those with CFS, Fibromyalgia, or other illnesses / disabilities, those with autism and/or ADHD, those grieving, pre/post house move or renovation, preparing for a new baby or who have just welcomed one, or simply overwhelmed by the task at hand.
We've worked with businesses such as a florist studio and a plant and gift shop, to make their day to day run much smoother, and the end of the day much more efficient when shutting up shop.
I have 15 years of experience in private music teaching, coaching my students, and building a rapport with them and their families, and teaching a range of ages, from 5 to 75. Being self-employed all this time has required being organised with admin and creating timetables. I have visited many homes of all types and never judged.
Anna has years of experience working as a childminder's assistant, regularly installing and maintaining systems to keep the children's play areas organised and easier to tidy up at the end of the day.
Anna is a natural minimalist, whereas I like my things. I'm naturally organised and have been from a young age, but I know what it's like for the challenges that life brings, or simply busyness to get in the way and cause disarray. There's no shame in it.
Our qualifications:
We are both trained and accredited by one of the leaders in our industry, Dilly Carter from BBC's Sort Your Life Out.
Anna is a fully qualified counsellor.
The benefits of working with us as a team of two is the efficiency we bring, as well as our combined strength to move furniture and heavy boxes. One of us can be sorting through items while the other is coaching you through your decisions. You can work alongside us or leave us to it.
We're your team of organisers who are dedicated, passionate, non-judgemental, kind, compassionate, fun, creative, and intuitive.
Whatever the reasons that have brought you here, do get in touch if you need a hand (or four).
"Sarah and Anna are amazing! I have Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/ME and although I love to be organised, I don’t have the physical, cognitive and emotional energy to do the work. Sarah and Anna were very sensitive to my needs and split the job into small chunks spread out over a month. This meant I didn’t become overtired. They organised cupboards, the storage under the eaves and straightened rooms after decorating. They took rubbish to the tip and items to the charity shop. I can now access things easily and love the systems in place. I would highly recommend their services to anyone but particularly anyone who has physical difficulties. Thanks once again!"
"I’m so glad we found Sarah and Anna! I was feeling overwhelmed when faced with moving house and effectively streamlining the contents from three different households into one. Anna and Sarah have taken everything in their stride, and handled the many tasks with a calm and gentle efficiency. They have helped us sort through and declutter our belongings (in three different premises), packed up everything for the move, and helped us with (re)organising our space and storage. Each time they have been with us I have been amazed at how much we have achieved, and been left in beautiful, spacious and tidy surroundings. It’s been a mammoth task, and is still a work in progress, but they have made it so much easier for us. I have no hesitation in recommending Sarah and Anna to anyone who needs help with decluttering or organising their home, and am looking forward to working with them again."
"Anna and Sarah were quite simply amazing, very professional, efficient and lovely to be around! Over my few days with them, we sorted everything and then tackled each category, got rid of bags of items to charity or the recycling centre and then in the blink of an eye 6 rooms were totally transformed - beautifully tidy, clutter free and expertly organised. I would recommend Sarah and Anna in a heartbeat and only wish I'd found these two lovely ladies sooner, I will be back for your help with another project in the future!"
