About Charlie

I was born and raised in France and lived in Ireland for 10 years before coming to Canada in 2008. I am a mother of 4 wonderful teenage children, so, I understand the lifestyle and challenges that come with running a busy household.

I believe everyone has a superpower, mine is organizing a space to make it efficient, productive, and looking beautiful at the same time. I want people to know that it is okay to outsource for organization services when they get overwhelmed. I believe sometimes it is hard in today’s world to take that step as there is a belief that we should all know how to organize our homes and offices, that it should come naturally to us. The way I look at it is the same way as if you are having electrical issues in your home, you are not going to try to fix them yourself because you somehow “should” know how to fix the issues, as you have changed a light bulb before! You would outsource the work to a professional electrician and get the issues resolved! It is the same for organizing!

We are all gifted in one way or another and I believe that we should spend as much of our lives doing what we love the most, for some people that will be painting, singing, playing sports, reading, or writing a book. For me, my passion is transforming someone’s space to make their life easier and happier so they can focus on their superpower.

Goals as a Professional Organizer

As a professional organizer, I work with people and businesses to create organizing solutions and transform their homes, offices, storage rooms and units into more efficient, productive, and happier, calmer spaces. I also help with decluttering: often, we can feel overwhelmed with where to begin or scared to get rid of some of our stuff; especially items that have some kind of sentimental value attached to them, and that’s where I come in; I help start the process and talk through each item and category to really prioritize what can be kept and what should go. It really is about honouring and enjoying every single item in our spaces.

My main goal with all of my clients is for them to feel a sense of relief, that they are not alone and most importantly that they feel loved and supported throughout the process.

Inspirations behind Organisation’elle

Ultimately, I want to bring happiness and peace to people’s lives. These days our lives are so busy, and a home should be a sanctuary, a haven to shut out the outside world and enjoy love and family, but when your space is cluttered, it’s harder to feel calm, peaceful, and relaxed. Life can be chaotic if, for instance when rushing out the door in the morning you can’t easily find your keys, your socks or even your kids! Or at work, if your desk, your office is cluttered, and you spend a lot of time looking for your files, contact info or even just a pen. So, having an organized and functional space to live and work in is vital for success, productivity and massively reducing unnecessary stress.

I realized that I had a knack for organization, that somehow, I could see any space and figure out the best way to utilize the space and how to fit the needs of the inhabitants to live there in the most efficient way.

I also love people and the most wonderful part of what I get to do every day is work with people with diverse requirements. Everyone is unique, there are no real cookie-cutter /one-size-fits-all organizational methods, because everyone thinks and operates differently in life; we all have different schedules, jobs, hobbies, and priorities. So, I really enjoy getting to know my clients and understanding their lifestyle, what is important to them, what are the pain points they are experiencing, and then I can tailor the organizing of their space accordingly.
