Hi my name is Susan Novara and I am a Professional Organizer. I love working with people to make their home spaces function better.
Are you tired of spending time looking for that holiday dish that you use once a year? How about those winter boots that go with only THAT outfit, or other items that you KNOW that you have, but you don’t remember where you put them? I am here to help you set your goals and help you to organize your items and space. Having a system that works FOR YOU is key to having and maintaining an organized space in your home. I help my clients to define their needs and determine their style of living before providing suggestions to help them decide what to keep and what to donate.
I work with clients who are moving. I help them to decide what to keep and what to donate before their move. Items that they don’t want to keep I offer suggestions for removal. Taking their items to donation centers is one of the options of the services that I provide.
I have been a professional organizer for about seven years. Previously I have been a teacher and a Speech Language Pathologist. I am a trained member of NAPO (National Association of Productivity and Organizing Professionals) with a Specialist Certificate in Residential Organizing and Life Transitions. Currently I am a member of the MI NAPO chapter and the Director of Membership. Our MI Chapter continues to offer education through speakers at our monthly meetings.
I also understand the necessity of being connected to our community. I am a member of the Council for Action on Aging which consists of individuals that represent various organizations and services that support our senior citizens. We meet monthly and different speakers give information on how we can be of service to our seniors. Working with seniors is a joy for me. I have helped many seniors sort through their neglected papers and develop a system for finding their important papers. I have also helped many who are moving to a new space by making floor plans for the furniture in their new home. I also pack/unpack their boxes when they have moved or will be moving to a new setting. Many extended family members do not live in the same state as their loved one so I am available to do the unpacking and organizing their new space. That environment could be an apartment, smaller home or even an assisted living home.
I have also been featured in our local Canton Today magazine this past summer. I have been featured on Channel 7 Action News about tips for setting up a garage sale. These are some of the media opportunities that have helped my business to grow.
If you are interested in beginning this process of organizing your home, please give me a call.
