TESTIMONIALS FROM OUR CLIENTS
HOME ORGANISING
"I would give more than 5 stars if I could - what an incredible difference Cheryl has made to our home!
Years of accumulated clutter, lives filled with kids and teens activities and busy work lives meant that we were overwhelmed. Cheryl's gentle, non-judgemental, curious and efficient approach meant that we worked together and achieved far more than I thought possible. Our kitchen, dining and living rooms are now a sanctuary and there's a place where everything belongs.
I can't wait to tackle the next space with Olive Organising. Ngā mihi nui ki a koe Cheryl!”

PREPARATION FOR SALE
"With two young children, we needed an extra pair of hands to declutter and organise our home in preparation for sale. Cheryl was meticulous, fastidious and nothing was a bother. She understood the brief and worked methodically and tirelessly and, importantly - without judgement.”
- Sarah
WARDROBE AND OFFICE ORGANISING
Cheryl is literally a magician of organisation. I have been completely impressed with the results she has achieved in the two spaces she has tackled for me so far. Simply fabulous!!
Don’t hesitate to book Cheryl to organise your life! Thank you so much Cheryl.

LAUNDRY ORGANISING
“My apartment has limited storage. Cheryl’s thoughtful organisation of the laundry has successfully maximised the storage that is available. Cheryl has also made it much easier for us to access what we are looking for and brought a sense of calm to what was a messy and underutilised space. In addition, visually, it looks great. I will absolutely be getting Cheryl back to sort out my pantry!”

UNPACKING AND ORGANISING A NEW HOME
"I was going through a challenging time physically and couldn’t unpack or organize our new home. I reached out to Cheryl, and she came by the same day to meet with me and create a plan. In just one day, Cheryl accomplished what would have taken me months. The relief this brought me is immeasurable, allowing me to focus on my recovery. I can’t recommend Cheryl and her services highly enough! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

KITCHEN REFRESH
“We are just thrilled with the reorganisation of our kitchen. We moved in 3 years ago and had never really got it together, everything became too hard until Cheryl came and worked her magic! She had great practical ideas, moved things around, labelled stuff, helped thin out & clear out! She was so easy to work with and we loved her enthusiasm when ours was all gone. We feel like a weight has been lifted and will have her back to tackle our laundry soon!”
- Shirley-Belle
PANTRY ORGANISING
"As you get older you accumulate more stuff in your life. It builds up around you and you drift further away from the simplicity of the things that matter. The happiness of small and meaningful things. I'd always known that at a general level, but I didn't realise how it weighed on me. Now I get up in the morning before Rosa rises and I make breakfast in a perfectly still, clean and organised kitchen. The measuring cups that carry the oats came from my late mother's pantry and take me back to a childhood when I had so much less but also so much more. I make a cup of coffee and I remember Aaron and that perfect year at University.
It's not just an organising service. Done well, it brings back that which matters that was buried in stuff we were fooled into thinking was more important."

BEDROOM ORGANISING
"Had my room organised by Cheryl. Very well done, efficient and organised process. Cheryl worked well with my room and catered to the spaces, storage and overall I would recommend her services.
From a teen’s perspective, I’m loving the fresh look and accessibility of everything now! It makes it a space that’s so much easier to be in. As well as my room many other rooms/cupboards in my house have been organised by Cheryl. Having these spaces organised makes you want to use and work in the areas. Definitely would recommend.”

HOME ORGANISING
"Olive Organising is more than a home organising service. Cheryl gently guides through a process without judgement or compulsion to part with anything.
Cheryl organised our pantry - and what was wonderful was that she used the existing storage containers, baskets and shelving, so there was no need to purchase more. The result was functional and beautiful.
After such a wonderful result, we asked Cheryl to work on our spare room and shelving spaces. The results were all amazing and the process was warm, supportive and ‘cup-filling’. We live in a much clearer and more functional house as a result.
I highly recommend some Olive Organising in your life!”

KITCHEN AND PANTRY REFRESH
“Dear Cheryl, I found the 4 hours you spent with me in the kitchen and pantry a most helpful and enjoyable experience.
I started by thinking there possibly wasn’t that much to do but with your gentle and nonintrusive style I soon realised how much better things could be. And they are.
I think you have a special talent for helping people at many different levels. This is important and needs to be emphasised and passed on.
My home is my sanctuary and you have made it more so”.
