“Tanya was really friendly and easy to work with. She broke the decluttering down into manageable chunks and guided us through the whole process while paying attention to the areas we found most difficult. We're now experiencing the satisfaction of living in an organised domestic environment for the first time in twenty years! And it's so nice to be able to find things in seconds instead of 20 minutes. Worth every penny.”
“Tanya helped me to turn my house from a stress filled, cluttered space, full of books, endless papers and kids’ junk, into a calm and peaceful home. It still gets messy, but I now spend far less time tidying, and looking for things. The Kondo process has also really helped me to be clearer about what brings me joy and meaning, so it’s starting to change other aspects of my life for the better too. Tanya was super organised, and enthusiastic without being pushy. I now feel very lucky to have a home that feels peaceful and relaxing, it’s made a huge difference to all of us. Would definitely recommend!”

“After my experience with Tanya and the KonMari method, I found it bizarrely easier to identify what brings me joy, not only from my material possessions but more holistically too. Never did I think tidying (which I do not usually enjoy) would bring me so much joy. Learning about this process has helped me a lot whilst shopping, I’m so much more mindful about buying clothes!”

“Tanya worked her magic for us and I am still in disbelief of what we have achieved. We have a small room in our house that had become a dumping ground. It's a pantry, filling area, holds tools, spare cleaning products, garden tools and so much more. We could never fully open the door because it was over flooding with things. It was so overwhelming that we never wanted to deal with it and that's just made the space get worse and out of control.
Working with Tanya meant I didn't have to do it alone, get frustrated about how and where to put things, come up with smart systems and much more as Tanya is so well trained at this. From her initial call all the way to the end of the session her expertise and professionalism shone through.
When we were finished, I couldn't believe how much extra space we had gained, how neat everything looked and felt and how easy it was to find our stuff. I joked saying we now have enough space for a person to sleep in this room whereas before it felt like an overloaded cupboard. This space is sparking joy every time I enter it. It's brought a sense of calmness and stillness. I'm even enjoying getting my shopping bag from here before heading out to the supermarket.
I can't recommend Tanya enough! If there is one or multiple spaces in your home that's chaotic, the practical and emotional benefits of having Tanya work in your home is invaluable. I have already began to tell my friends and family about the wonders she's done for us.”
client KR, chiselhurst
“The process of tidying by categories helped me make a significant lifestyle shift. Tanya helped me to let go of things that I had held on to without even realising. Our home is more organised than it’s ever been! I feel I have new sets of clothes and jewellery after finding the things I truly love and want to use and then completely rearranging my wardrobe. I now have out-of-season clothes in boxes in the top of my wardrobe and I can see every single item easily. I actually let go of so many clothes that what I have can now fit in my wardrobe rather than filling up storage space in other rooms. The kitchen cupboards are easily accessible for the whole family.
Everything in our house has a place! Thank you Tanya for working tirelessly and supporting me every step of the way on this journey. I particularly love my bedside table area with my essential oils, books and photos. A special thank you for creating my memory boxes, which are a real treat to look through and close to hand in my bedroom. Sorting through decades of photograph packets and keepsakes was a massive job. To have them beautifully organised in albums and memory boxes is the best feeling.”

“I did a 20 hour session cleaning and reorganising my kitchen and utility room with Tanya of Organised Joy. Six months after the session my kitchen cupboards and utility cupboards are still organised and it’s a joy working in my kitchen again! The system that Tanya follows allows you to continue to keep the space organised and uncluttered. Recently I had to decorate the house for an impromptu teenage birthday party and I knew exactly where we had stored the party decorations and partyware. It was easy to set up, I didn’t go out and buy new stuff and it was even easier to clean up and put away! The session helped me become more mindful of my purchases and there are virtually no duplicates/triplicates of stuff in the house anymore! To top it all off, it’s a pleasure working with Tanya: she is a seasoned professional, non judgemental and has a phenomenal sense of space and efficiency.”
client AB, south hampstead
“Tanya does an amazing job. We actually know where everything is now and we have freed up so much space. It has done wonders for our mental health. I would recommend her services if you have trouble with organisation, it is worth it for the peace of mind.”

“Having already had what I thought was a good throw-out from my wardrobe recently, I was most interested in how Tanya could help me organise what was left. I found the process so much more valuable than I’d anticipated. For starters, I ended up discarding (well, sending to charity) far more than I had envisaged. Getting everything out at once, rather than sorting through a particular drawer, shelf or rail was enlightening.
The end result far exceeded my expectations. I can honestly say that my wardrobe / drawers have never looked like they do now! It feels quite liberating to know exactly what you’ve got and be able to see it. Cutting labels from items of clothing that I chose to keep has meant that I’ve started wearing things that were waiting for some sort of occasion - most likely an occasion that would never have materialised! I really liked Tanya’s approach - firm but fair! There was no pressure to get rid of anything … and I enjoyed being challenged on my decisions as we went through the process.
I can’t wait to tackle the rest of my stuff following the same principles. I highly recommend giving this a go … and can say with certainty that you’ll get far more out of it with Tanya’s help.”
client BG, kensington
“Tanya helped me with organising books and my child’s toys. She is so good at her job. She immediately had ideas of where things should stay when she visited my place. And we got down to work straight away. She also helped and motivated me to get rid of the things that didn’t bring joy to my life anymore. We managed to spare so much space and my home looks so much more tidy than before. A tidy home provides a very calm vibe and I need it so much being a first-time mum. I can see my family also enjoys the change very much. Finally I can sit on my lounge chair to enjoy a cup of tea and read a book that I truly enjoy. It is definitely worth the money spent.”

“Absolutely amazing experience with Tanya! The house was full of so much stuff and everything was everywhere. Tanya helped so much, she helped explain, sort, ask the right questions, take a fresh look at our space and honestly left us with an immaculately organized bedroom and an amazing basis for going forward. I will genuinely be taking her method and suggestions forward to bring more Tanya order! Definitely worth doing this!”
client Lh, hampstead
“Tanya Kon mari’ed my daughters wardrobe. Before I would spend saturdays organizing it now she is able to organize it herself and put away all her clothes neatly. The system she set up is foolproof. It’s been nearly 8 months and it looks the same as she left it. Thank you Tanya for making her space more tranquil and helping her get moving quicker in the morning. I would definitely recommend you invest in Tanya!”
client SJ, st john’s wood
“Tanya has made our home feel light and spacious. We were accumulating a lot of things in every area and despite having more bedrooms than we needed, we were thinking about extending or adding a conservatory for more living space. Now we have completely reduced our clutter and found a clear purpose for each space in our home that fits with our lifestyle. At the start, I kept questioning the focus on what Tanya calls our ideal lifestyle. But after the transformation, I understand! I love every part of our home and I feel lucky we did not spend a significant sum on a building project when we would have just filled the space with more clutter. It was hard work yet Tanya kept it light and enjoyable. I cannot believe what we achieved in our time together.”
client AD, primrose hill
“Tanya is amazing! She caters the sessions to your exact needs. The first session she came and helped me rethink the new space we moved into and organize and categorize belongings! And helped me move furniture! Talk about versatility. Second session, she helped me clean my office space and declutter. And she organized my clothes drawers. I’ve learned so much! She is extremely efficient with her time and knows how to get things done. Highly recommend her services!”
client SG, hampstead
“Using joy as a metric, Tanya helped me let go of old clothes that I haven’t used in years. And those new clothes in original packaging that I had stored away because I don’t wear them! Once I knew what I wanted to keep, Tanya showed me how to fold everything neatly and put them in the cupboards and drawers so I can see each thing. It is amazing how different it feels opening my cupboard in the morning because every single thing in it is something I would be delighted to put on. There is now ample clothes storage and my bookshelves and desk look great. I can now find what I want with ease. Thank you.”
client AK, belsize park
“Tanya is a joy to work with, really friendly and professional and so good at what she does. We spent the day clearing out my wardrobe - before I never felt like I had enough space and I had so few clothes that I actually wore. Now my wardrobe looks like a boutique shop and I know the clothes I have are ones that I love. Tanya helped me to think completely differently about the space I have and set me up with an easy to replicate system so I can easily keep it tidy. I would really recommend working with Tanya.”
client JC, london bridge
“Tanya has been an absolute godsend. I love the ethos and values she works by.
We needed to downsize from a house to a flat and I ended up being able to donate, sell, recycle or dispose of half of the contents from my home. Tanya started with what brought me joy and I gained a huge realisation that most of the actual 'things' we have were things that did not evoke a feeling of joy.
It was so cathartic! I felt so much lighter within and knowing exactly what we have as a family definitely reframes the way we live on a daily basis. Less clutter and more clarity in our home and within our minds.
She then organised the remaining items in such a way so that everything that belonged together remained that way. It has made the process so much easier than the mammoth task that I believed was ahead of me.
Thank you so much for your incredible service. Everyone should do this!!!”
client lC, st John’s wood
“What a fantastic service, it completely changes your life, your home, your mindset to 'things', your behaviours around space, buying and clutter. Tanya is excellent. A gentle approach that allows you to understand the process and run with it and gets things done. She's fixed 'scary' cupboards and given the tools to let me do more. Great value for what you're getting.”
client ja, south woodford
“Tanya has been an absolute joy to work with, she has helped me with the very daunting process of organising each room of our family home which was in a complete mess. Tanya has helped me sort through each item, discard what no longer brought me joy and in the process has created so much more space, systems and organisation that work for our busy life and home. Everything now has its place and purpose and I feel like we have space again in our home to enjoy the space and really live in it! Tanya is fantastic and I highly recommend her services.”
client RS, st john’s wood
“I contacted Tanya after the realisation that 1) years of accumulation, young children and busy jobs had left our household with a level of clutter and disorganisation that was beginning to affect our quality of life and 2) the enormity of the undertaking was too intimidating for me to tackle alone. Daunted by the prospect and unsure of what to expect, I booked an ad-hoc 5-hour session.
The experience and the results blew me away. We started with my dressing room which had become unwieldy. Tanya’s confidence that the task was achievable and insight into how to approach my decision making helped me to break through my instinct to keep, and was addictive. I immediately booked a 50 hour package. Together we have tackled everything from handbags to toy rooms, nail varnish to cutlery drawers.
I can honestly say that the experience has transformed our house and life. The process of evaluating the benefits of holding onto things versus the benefits of having the space to enjoy the things you have, has completely changed my outlook.
Tanya is not only amazing at what she does but truly inspirational. Her positivity and enthusiasm are infectious and her speed at evaluating new situations, or coming up with the best way to arrange any number of non-tessellating objects is awe inspiring. I suspect she is a master at jigsaw puzzles too!
In short I can’t recommend her highly enough.”
