How it Works

Your home... more beautiful

Experienced and personable, I'm here to help.

Step 1: Initial Discussion

We will have an initial discussion over phone to discuss your basic needs.

Step 2: Consultation/Quote

Complimentary 30 minute in home consultation to discuss in more depth the areas of your home that need attention and identify spaces such as clutter hot-spots and trouble zones. I will provide you with an estimated time frame for how long each of these areas will take to declutter and reorganise.

Step 3: Decluttering & Sorting

Sit back and relax while I declutter & sort your chosen living spaces. I will provide guidance on what to keep and what to purge but the ultimate decision is yours.I fully understand the sensitivity around decluttering well loved possessions so rest assured you will never be made to throw out anything you don’t wish to.

Step 3: Reorganising

Now is the time for me to tidy and reorganise the freshly decluttered spaces and put some practical and functional systems into place that suit your family or individual needs (and your lifestyle).I will provide recommendations on storage solutions where needed and either work with the items you have or arrange to purchase whatever is required (that also suits your budget).

Mel is fantastic, she has been instrumental in helping me with decision making and speed to clear out and organise parts of the home to make it more functional, and in preparation for Airbnb rental. She’s also lovely and fun to hang out with while we work. Highly recommend!

Mel is awesome! My wife and I are both genuine world-class procrastinators, and chronically disorganized. Recently, in the space of two years, we moved 5 times, changed cities, changed jobs, and married, while dealing with 3 complex legal issues. We called Mel in the ensuing complete chaos, and she was a superstar. Always cheery, nothing a problem, completely trustworthy, takes initiative - very highly recommend Mel - she will take your stress away!

I am so grateful to Melissa from One Organised Woman for helping me sort out my daughter's dreaded toy room. Even just meeting with Melissa motivated me to start working on the room, a task I had previously never quite found the time for. With her professionalism, encouragement and organisational skills we made our way through the entire room and transformed it. I thought I couldn't be happier but then I saw my daughter's face when she saw her 'new' room. It was an absolute pleasure working with Melissa and I can't recommend her highly enough. Thanks Melissa!
