*Are you a busy parent struggling to keep up with the demands on you and your home?
* Does your home cause you stress or anxiety?
*Are you unable to find the things you are looking for?
*Do you struggle to know where to put your belongings because you've run out of space?
*Is your home no longer keeping up with family life?
Here at Declutter and Breathe, we believe that our fast-paced and busy lifestyles are often made more stressful when our homes are cluttered and disorganised. Yet, decluttering and organising your treasured possessions can give you space to breathe, to live and dream again. It can free your mind for greater possibilities and prevent your home from holding you back.
I have always been passionate about organising and having systems in place so that my home and life flows. However, after my two children were born I realised the increased need for my home to function well. Having worked for over 10 years with families, often facing difficult situations I have seen first-hand that having a home that is well organised helps to relieve some of the stress in daily life. I have worked with parents in a range of circumstances, from pregnancy to postnatal, those with young children, teenagers and foster children. In each circumstance recognising the different challenges they face and looking at the ways in which their home could best work for them, rather than hinder their family life.
So if you would like to free your time, release your mind and discover space to breathe in your home, get in touch for a no obligation consultation!
Two key principles for my practice:
Sustainability ('Decluttering well’)
I love to work sustainably, using what you already have to create organised systems, categorising so that you know what you have and where it is stored.
Well-being (being able to 'breathe')
Creating space to breathe deeply in your home, where your mind can unwind and your body can relax. Ensuring that you feel at peace in your space.
You can be assured of judgment-free support:
Inviting someone in to your home can feel scary, but you can be assured of my completed confidentiality and judgment-free approach to supporting you throughout the decluttering and organising process. It is my aim to ensure you feel at ease and given the space to breathe whilst working with me.
Locations covered
I am based in Rayleigh, Essex and deliver in-person work throughout the south of the county. However if you are further afield I also offer online coaching sessions.
Online support
I provide online (Zoom, Teams or phone calls) to guide you through the decluttering and organising process. This might look like online contact whilst you sort through your items, motivational calls with action plans to guide you through decluttering a particular area of you home, or accountability whilst you complete a specific task.
Contact me to find out how this could be best personalised for you in your situation.
I have found this hidden gem of a lady whose encouragement and motivation have been invaluable. I wouldn't consider myself an 'unorganised' person, but I do struggle with the mental load of feeling overwhelmed. Simply by just getting on and finally sorting 'that mess of a draw', or finally sorting through clothes that don't fit anymore has made me feel so much better. Suz hasn't judged me for my 'mess', but instead has been gracious and understanding.
Fantastic virtual support ahead of her visit in a few weeks. I was lacking motivation and messaged her for help - her advice was absolutely spot on and helped me achieve more than I’d set out to! She helped me set achievable tasks that weren’t overwhelming and checked in on me later on in the day to applaud my success having sent her before and after photos 😜 Even more excited for her in person help now 😊 Thanks Suz! Would highly recommend.
Suz worked with us to sort our garage! It was so helpful having someone question whether or not we really needed to keep things. I know I got rid of a lot more as a result. Suz enabled us to organise the space in a way that meant everything we use regularly was accessible and easy to find. I no longer dread opening my garage door! Thank you Suz for such a great job!
