Let’s clear the clutter & find peace in your home - Together!

…even if your child have ADHD, autism, or another neurodiverse condition

that has kept you from simplifying your home and life in the past

Current Reality . . .

Current Reality . . .

Standard Decluttering Falls Short for Special Needs Families:

There are never-ending cycles of clutter and chaos.

Piles of clutter feel stifling and paralyzing.

You feel trapped and overwhelmed.

BUT THERE’S HOPE…

A clutter-free, organized home is within reach. 

Together, we can create a space that brings pride and peace to your family. 

PROMISE!

Especially If You’ve Found Yourself Resorting to These Tactics..

🖐 Yelling or Bribing: Trying to coax or force your child into cleaning up, leading to frustration and resentment.

🖐 Threatening to Discard Belongings: Filling trash bags with your child's items and threatening disposal if they don’t clean up.

🖐 Begging or Pleading: Attempting to negotiate or plead with your child to tidy up, often without success.

🖐 Trying to Do It for Them: Decluttering for your child, leading to dependence rather than teaching them organizational skills.

🖐 Dismissing Their Feelings: Overlooking your child’s resistance or lack of understanding about the importance of organization.

Despite Your Efforts…

These approaches often yield short-lived results, and strained relationships with your children.

It’s frustrating!

✅ You’ve read ALL the advice. 

✅ You’ve tried ALL the methods. 

✅ Feeling like each "failed attempt" is letting down your child and their future readiness. 

You want a clutter free home,

but you need help.

Every nook & cranny of your children’s spaces are disorganized.

Finding their starting place feels impossible.  

Hiring help feels vulnerable.

What if the children refuse to listen to them? 

You’re this close to resigning yourself to the fact that:

  1. Your home will always be a disaster.

  2. You have failed your kids.

It is NOT Your Fault. 

Here’s a little secret, friend-to-friend.

Traditional Decluttering Methods weren’t made for families like yours.


They simply don’t work when your child has ADHD, Autism, Cerebral Palsy, Downs Syndrome, Aspergers, or another unique/special need.

They weren’t made for: 

Your child - especially not those with special needs

Inclusivity of Your Entire Household

The way your child is naturally wired to be

Living room area full of toys

Half-finished rooms, closet decluttering and toy organization efforts may feel like a failure but they’re not.

They weren’t made for your child’s specific needs. 

YOU’RE NOT A FAILURE.

You just need a way to declutter that works with your child’s brain, NOT against it.


You may have clutter,

but clutter doesn’t have younot when you say yes to

Meet Your Declutter Coach

Hey friend 👋🏽

I’m Wendy, Your Declutter Coach,

and a mom to a 17-year-old son and 10 year old daughter. 

Balancing life as a special needs mom and homeschooler, I recognize the vital role of life skills in nurturing future adults. I've dedicated myself to helping families, each unique in their dynamics - from single-child households to those bustling with siblings.

My journey, marked by personal grief, military service, and mental health challenges, taught me the value of order in chaos.

Testimonials

- From clients who are also special needs parents -

The Power of Accountability:

“We had the pleasure of working with Ms. Wendy yesterday, in our home!  She spent an intentional amount of time with my 3 special needs children in Decluttering and organizing their bedroom space.  She taught my children valuable life skills in encouraging them to carefully consider what belongings were truly important to them, and if they should donate things to benefit others, or if things could be thrown away all together.  This activity encourages the growth of their executive functioning, and helping them to truly understand their environment!  I am so grateful to Ms. Wendy, and can’t wait to have her come again!  Highly recommend her!!” - Tamara K.

”Wendy helped my son (who has Aspergers and ADHD) with decluttering his room and organizing it.  She. is. amazing. What he got done in 3 hours, we couldn't accomplish in 3 years.  She knows how to effectively communicate to motivate her clients to get the job done!  I wish there was a 10 star rating - thank you Wendy!!” - Nancy G.

The difference of Step-by-Step processes:

“Wendy was great! We tackled a big job together with my 4 children, ages 3-14. She had all of them working well and learning WHY it's important to keep the clutter out as well as how to get rid of it. My 6 year old even reminded her big brother to put something away properly in there rather than leave it on the floor!” - Sylvia R.

“Wendy was such a pleasure to work with! She was so kind and non-judgmental and put us all at ease as soon as she walked in the door! She worked alongside my children to declutter their room and laundry space and helped them purge what wasn't needed with gentle but realistic expectations! I cannot wait for her to come back to help with their schooling space! Cannot recommend her enough!!!” - Jennifer B.

What happens when you combine the right blend of understanding, grace, & fun with declutter coaching:

“We loved working with Wendy! She came in ready to shine and get down to business. She helped my teen declutter her room, being very considerate of her opinions. She was also very friendly, relatable and helped my teen feel like her voice was heard. She kept the conversation light and fun and the time flew by. They were extremely efficient and the result looked amazing! Thank you Wendy!” - Diana Q.

“Wendy is an absolute delight to work with.  She has excellent organization skills and teaches your kids about organization and the process.  She also is respectful of your desires if something holds sentimental value for you.  Wendy helps you or your child make decisions on what to keep, what to get rid of, and how to declutter and stay clutter free.  Highly recommend!” - Holly W.

“Wendy has been so helpful in teaching my child and the rest of the household how to deal with the clutter we had accumulated for years. She stresses on keeping memories and not things . And that the things we keep and not use are hindering us too from better things, like more space for play and interaction , organization , or space for things that better serve our current needs.  She helps you reflect and see the source of the accumulation and non organization... and helps you move forward . She is a delight and is loved by my family.  We cannot wait to work with her again !” - Mayen O.

“Wendy was amazing with our kids! She helped them process what to keep, what to let go of, and how to better organize their limited space. She worked non stop with all four of my kids and they enjoyed every minute! What a relief! I can’t recommend Wendy and her services enough!!!” - Jenny C.

PROOF that the right Declutter Coach can equal FAST RESULTS:

“We LOVED Wendy! She helped both of my kids sort through a ton of toys, clean their space and organize everything. We don’t have a very large space for toys so it is easily overwhelmed. Now that the area is organized the kids actually put toys back where they’re supposed to go after playing with them. I will absolutely use Wendy’s services again. She was on time, friendly and so, incredibly helpful.” - J B.

“We had a great and productive experience with Wendy! She helped my teenager declutter his room and also organize his backpack/binder to help him stay more organized with schoolwork. Absolutely recommend!” - Barbara R.

“Wendy made this entire experience easy, fun, and feel like I was just hanging out with a friend in my kitchen! With her help we made so much progress it’s like we have a brand new kitchen! I can’t wait to tackle the next project with Wendy!” - Carrie K.

The Power of Including Family:

“Wendy is AMAZING!! She has brought so much peace and sanity to our home in just 4 sessions. We are a busy family with apparently no decluttering skills and house shows it. She came in and magic happened!! 

I worked with Wendy on the kitchen, office, master closet, and master bedroom. My favorite part of working with Wendy has been the way she worked with our kids, both with very unique personalities. She was able to get them on board easily with both decluttering and organizing their bedrooms and play space. 

Our entire family is thrilled with the progress and we will continue to schedule time with her to keep things under control”. - Heather O.

You’re probably thinking…
