Tl;dr: Nicoll is AMAZING and clearly knows what she's doing when it comes to professionally…read moreorganizing your home! Read on below if you want more details about the whole process. So...here's the thing about me. I love stuff. I love having a variety of stuff. I love having colorful pens, cute bags, books...you name it, and I probably started collecting some of it at some point. I don't think there's anything inherently wrong with wanting to have and own those things. But what I did notice was that the sheer amount of that stuff was really starting to stress me out. Things didn't have a place. My closet and dresser and drawers were stuffed to the brim. I found it difficult to enjoy these fun things I owned because they were mixed in with other things I didn't enjoy or use anymore. I found that I was hanging onto so many items for years "just in case," and the case would never arrive. I'd tried for years with things like the minimalist challenge and reading self help books to try and get rid of things, but I couldn't seem to make a dent. That's where Nicoll came in. My partner helped me find Nicoll on Yelp and connected the two of us together. We had an introductory phone call where she asked me some questions, and I shared my frustrations with getting rid of things and really needing help with it. We ended up making an appointment for a week later where she showed up with her toolkit and bag of bags for donations. We did a little walk around and I shared areas of stress for me and what I wanted out of the space, which was to know where everything was and to know what I owned. After the intro assessment we dove right in. In the next few hours we: ⁃ Took EVERYTHING out of my closet and purged SO much of it. We went piece by piece and she helped ask clarifying questions (when did I last wear it? Do I like it?) and could usually pick up on if I actually liked something. I noticed patterns of how I reacted when I loved something vs when I wasn't sure or was sort of convincing myself. This is an exercise I tried doing before on my own, but when there's someone standing there, who you paid to help you, who's not attached to your stuff....let me tell you, it changes the game. I found myself deciding to donate (and sometimes sell) what must have been at least a third of my closet (clothes, hats, bags, electronics, etc). ⁃ She busted out her label maker and helped organize and label shelves in categories that made sense. Now I know where everything is! ⁃ She packed up all the items I decided to donate into bags and packed them into her car. It ended up being about 15 bags of things which was absolutely wild to me. Nicoll taking these bags out of my house was a game changer, because there have been many times I've decided to donate items that just end up sitting there in bags for months! I noticed that night going to bed that my room felt emptier, in a really good way. It felt calmer, cleaner, and like I could breathe a bit easier. Some people might read this and think that they shouldn't have to hire someone to help them organize. I know for myself that I hit a wall when it came to organizing on my own, and I needed to ask for help. I'm so glad I did, because it changed my life and my relationship with "stuff." I'm confident that Nicoll will be able to help you if you need it, and I cannot recommend her enough!

Sylvia transformed our chaotic kitchen and pantry from a health hazard into a functional, safe…read morespace for our family. When we started, we discovered bugs, mold, and expired spices dating back to 2018 - it was genuinely concerning. Sylvia didn't just organize, she helped us create a healthier environment by thoroughly cleaning and purging everything that was unsafe. What impressed me most was how thoughtfully she designed solutions for our actual needs. She created a pull-out snack center at the perfect height for my 6-year-old son to reach his own snacks independently. She sourced all the organizing supplies from accessible stores like Target and Nordstrom Rack, so the solutions were both effective and budget-friendly. Sylvia listened to how we actually use our kitchen and created systems that make sense for our daily routines. The clear container system in the pantry makes it easy to see what we have and ensures nothing gets forgotten and expires again. Everything now has a designated place that's easy to maintain. The transformation went far beyond just making things look neater - Sylvia helped us create a space that's genuinely healthier and more functional for our family. I can't recommend her highly enough for anyone wanting to reclaim their kitchen from chaos while prioritizing safety and practicality.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

What I especially appreciated was how thorough and thoughtful they were. Items were grouped logically, boxes were clearly labeled, donations were taken care of, and they asked questions whenever they weren't sure what I wanted rather than making assumptions. They were also excellent communicators and kept me updated on progress. They also went above and beyond in a number of ways and were very thoughtful about making use of original packaging and storage containers I had saved. When possible, items were packed back into the boxes they came in, with the remaining space used efficiently for related items. I appreciated both the extra care this took and the fact that it helped avoid unnecessary packing materials. Everything was packed carefully, including some delicate items, and nothing was damaged in the move. I primarily used Cloudy to Clear for decluttering and packing, but Claudia also had great organizational advice throughout the process. I was dealing with a move, a renovation, work, and lots of other things at the same time, and having Claudia and Giselle handle this part of the process made an otherwise chaotic and potentially very stressful period significantly easier. I would absolutely recommend Cloudy to Clear. Their expertise, attention to detail, resourcefulness, and practical recommendations were all much appreciated.

In my son's room: my son is growing so fast and many of his clothes no longer fit. Claudia created a system to help me keep his dresser and closet functional. I love the labels in the dresser and folding system that she taught me! In the closet we used a cube organization system and the clothes are hung according to age. For instance 6-9 months. This makes mornings so much easier! 2.) For our garage: I am embarrassed to admit I have kept like way to many birthday cards, art projects, etc. Claudia is super patient and went through every single paper with me. She helped me create a system for when to keep, donate, and when to throw away. I am proud now of my garage. We have clear boxes that are labeled for instance: Halloween or Christmas.

I have sat on this review for just over a week (work done on 06/05/2026). Taking in the magnitude,…read moreor enormity of the project that was done. I wanted my wife and I to digest what really happened. I wanted to determine if the ladies of "Organized Life" really did what I paid them to do. First, let me preface by saying if you are a horder, you may have a difficult time with their service. They are not there to go through every piece of garbage you may find valuable and also be your therapist. That would take FOREVER, and this isn't a reality TV show. However, what it is, is a superb service. If you have found yourself living comfortably numb, and have just accumulated STUFF over the years and realize one day that it is time to make a change. They are the crew to help you purge and organize. Molly, Marie and the 3rd girl's name eludes me. For that I sincerely apologize because she was no less outstanding. These young ladies came in, assessed and got busy. We hired them to clear and organize our garage that we used as a storage for years. Stuff we had not touched in 15 years. Some new, but most old. One of the best things I think that this crew possesses is the ability to relate to the homeowner in such a way that the homeowner is not feeling trampled upon, BUT at the same time respectfully probing and prodding to move the process of purging along. Nobody wants to get rid of things they find value in, but if you haven't touched the stuff in several years, what are you really doing? Our reason to hire these ladies was two fold. 1st, we want to prepare to buy another house and move. 2nd, we have gotten older and our bodies physically don't hold up to continously, non stop physical labor as they once did. Needless to say, these ladies had our garage cleared out in about 1.5hrs...maybe an hour and twenty minutes and ready for my wife and I to sift and sort. The sifting and sorting is ABSOFUCKINGLUTELY what takes the longest in the entire process. I can honestly say these girls did in a day what would have probably taken months for my wife and I to finish ourselves...if at all. These girls NAILED IT! They strategized, improvised, and organized. There has been a weight lifted!

We had tons of junk even after purging prior to moving. I have no idea how my husband and I accumulated so much junk after six years of marriage. I take most of the blame because I have/had a bunch of teaching supplies and books I couldn't bear to part ways with. Anyway, once we got into our new home, I made these grand promises of organizing the garage once summer came. I wouldn't be teaching, I'd have time, blah, blah, blah. Summer came. Then, it was "too hot" for me to go into the garage. Mmmkay. I was born and raised in the Central Valley, and I've lived through 110 degree summers. This Peninsula weather was NOT too hot--I was just too lazy. Summer came and went. It hit me two weeks ago that Thanksgiving was coming, and I did not want a messy disorganized garage being judged by my meticulous mother and sister. After teaching all day, the last thing I want to do is organize a garage. Enter Kendall and Maria. I was referred to this organization duo via two people on the NextDoor app. I reached out via email, and THANKFULLY Kendall was very responsive. Yassss. I love when folks answer emails promptly. Kendall assessed the space, we set a date, and she and Maria showed up on time ready to organize. My husband and I had a budget, so we spent some time over the weekend cleaning up things to make sure Kendall and Maria's job wouldn't be too tedious. In short, this two day process was amazing. When I came home from work and looked in my garage, I screamed. Labeled? Check. Clear containers? Check. A place for everything? Check. A put together place? UH, YEAH!

We asked if they could replicate the closet we had in our master bedroom, and they were able to do so easily.
