I had the pleasure of working with Beatriz Ramos, who took on the daunting task of helping me declutter and organize every room in my mother's home while she was away, recovering from injuries incurred during a fall. Beatriz's upbeat energy, expertise, strong work ethic, and systematic process allowed us to tackle one room at a time, starting with clearing boxes and other items on the floor to reduce the risk of falling. As we sorted, Beatriz labeled containers to store similar items and collected items that could be donated or discarded. Once the floors were free from clutter, she then decluttered, sorted and organized all closets and cabinets, creating more efficient use of existing space. When I struggled at times to make decisions on items that brought up both happy and sad emotions, Beatriz's patience and understanding kept my spirits up and inspired me to keep going. We put in six-hour days, and Beatriz kindly stayed longer to clear the garage and get the job done. I could not have done this without her and highly recommend Beatriz and Me In Order services to anyone overwhelmed with clutter and chaos at home. Knowing that my mother's home is safer and more accessible gives me peace and hope that she can continue to stay in her home (aging in place), and live independently longer. After living away for nine months, my mother returned home last week. Beatriz was there to meet her and move items previously sorted into my mother's newly remodeled bathroom so she could stay in her home that evening. As my mother gets reacquainted with her home, she is thrilled and grateful for what was accomplished. My mother has enrolled in the Me In Order monthly maintenance program and looks forward to working with Beatriz to keep "Mom in Order!" read more
