Paulaaaaaaa!!!
She and her team are the absolute best. We had a hugely cluttered little house and were about to move to a bigger one. My husband was extremely apprehensive about how we were going to manage all the STUFF. He wanted to get Paula in, but I was reluctant because I was worried about the money. When she came to do a quote for decluttering and project-managing the move, I merely blinked and we had a moving inventory, quotes from removal companies and a clear way ahead. I could no longer refuse Paula’s services. She is warm but firm, with a great sense of humour. One hesitation or slightly raised eyebrow from her tells you everything you need to know about what to do with the object in your hand that you haven’t used in 10 years…
What I loved about her, aside from these things, is that she doesn’t have a scorched earth policy either. If she thinks something can be repurposed, she’ll hold off on donating it. She also respects one’s emotional attachment to things. There were several boxes that I wasn’t going to sort through because I know that all those family documents and photos were too treasured to let go of, and she respected that. But my god, the rest… she made us sort through every last shoebox and drawer, which had seemed so intimidating at first, but then it became infectious. She is so brilliant at reading where you are in terms of energy and emotional state, and she makes sure you take a break when needed. We donated boxes and boxes of things to those in need, which made the journey into the new house feel like an unencumbered new start.
Paula project-managed our whole move, and she and her team unpacked the entire house on the other side. She organised people to collect donations, and gave brilliant advice on organising our new space. She is also unbelievably resourceful in finding replacements for lost or broken parts of things. Not one thing was damaged in the move. If I had had to do this myself, I would have died. Aside from sleep training for my baby, this is the best money I have ever spent in my life. I just know Paula will be in our lives for years to come, with her wry maternal presence and totally containing energy.
Do not hesitate to work with Paula and her team. They will save your sanity, and there can be no price tag for that.

It was lovely having you organise our move and really took so much stress out of what was initially a very daunting situation for us. We are settling in very happily.
