		HOUSEHOLD MANAGEMENT Life has become more demanding and maintaining one or more residences could also become a burden. As a part of our Home and Estate Management Services we provide several levels of concierge services for home owners who want household systems cared for on schedule while they are in transition, traveling or simply so they can enjoy other activities. Imagine returning from a trip to a home that has been well maintained, organized, the refrigerator stocked with your favorites and fresh flowers to welcome you.

		COACHING NEW PROFESSIONAL ORGANIZERS So you want to become a Professional Organizer I believe in educating our new organizers to get off to a great start. That is one reason I served as a NAPO National Conference Chair, founding NAPO Pittsburgh Board Member and became a Certified Professional Organizer. I love what I do, I stay on top of new trends and am happy to share!
		SPEAKING/TRAINING One of the most gratifying aspects of our business is spreading the word about achieving harmony through order and simplicity. There’s no greater satisfaction to us than seeing the light bulbs go on as clients realize how the “stuff” in their lives has become a burden. Basic organizing principles apply to everything we do, in any situation, on many levels. We can adapt this message in speaking to a wide variety of groups. What’s more, we provide training in these principles, as well as other kinds of training, such as basic computer organizing skills and the effective use of Palm Pilots. We enjoy sharing the ease of living these organizing concepts allow, and we deliver our message with both purpose and, always, a sense of humor.
		FOLLOW-UP We follow up because we care. We want to know how you are and where you are on your journey. If it serves to further motivate you, all the better! We offer follow-up through phone and email, whether it’s reminders, “homework” or additional assessments of what is and isn't’t working. To us, follow-ups are a natural extension of seeing someone in need and our attempt to help and check in. So as you ease into your newly organized life know that any questions that arise will soon be answered. You’re not in this alone!
		CONFIDENTIALITY WITHOUT JUDGEMENT Organizing is a very personal process and confidentiality is at the heart of our business. We respect your privacy and adhere to the Code of Ethics, established by the National Association of Professional Organizers. We know it is a challenge to stay organized especially when life takes its twists and turns. Remember, perfection is not the goal. Please rest assured that we will never criticize or judge you or break your confidence. Need more assurance? Read what other clients have said about our services.

	Services Overview
	When do I need an Organizer?
	Am I chronically disorganized?

"You are the perfect combination of get it done and positive energy for the job! Leslie and her team do it all, from paying bills to running errands and even organizing photos on my computer-they are true lifesavers! "

Busy Mother of Two

"Her attitude is "can do, can do". Using solid computer and graphics skills, Leslie has put my accounts on Quicken, collected all essential information for my tax accountant, organized my move out of a large home and into a condominium, kept me on track with social obligations. There has been no assignment too mammoth nor, in some instances, exceptional, for Leslie to complete."

CMU Professor

Our relocation could not have gone smoother. Leslie and her team unpacked and put away everything! It not only looked beautiful, I have been able to stay organized with systems that work in place!

Retail Executive

“Leslie has set a gold standard for us all – in her enthusiasm, her boundless energy, and in her fresh creative ideas to make Pittsburgh’s organizers be recognized. Leslie’s own business has become a symbol of what we can each become if we stay focused and keep the customer always first. She has given our group, as well as NAPO National, countless hours of her precious time, and taught us a thing or two about quiet humility, grace under fire, and above all, pride in what our profession.”

..."my mother was in the early stages of alzheimers and was living away from Pittsburgh and McKee Organizing Services helped my mother sort through her belongings and be ready to downsize into a home that was closer to me. They helped her to be ready for an estate sale and for her moving day "

"When I called Leslie, she was accessible and friendly. She listened very patiently as I cursed my messy house and poor organization skills. She was never judgmental, and made me feel like there were a lot of other people and companies out there with the same problem. "
