”Well you've done it again! You've helped/motivated/encouraged/and done another AMAZING JOB!!!!!
I cannot tell you how much I have enjoyed, laughed about, and yes (as you saw) cried for this LONG AWAITED TREAT TO MYSELF of organizing my things. It is life altering to say the least, and I mean that.
You brought your JEST/ENERGY/AND JOY, into my home and transformed it into what I'd imagined it to be for a long time.
I cannot thank you enough Edith, you are a marvel, you really are. An angel that swoops in and takes charge and helps those that have floundered in dealing with their STUFF. You my dear are a priceless commodity. You’re a gem. You really are. I thank you from my heart and I feel blessed that we crossed paths!”

“If you have the best of intentions to get yourself organized this year (that room that hasn't yet met its full potential, that storage locker that is crammed full, that 'miscellany' all over the place with no real system and no plan) but just can't seem to bring yourself to take the necessary step to take on what feels overwhelming at times, then I highly recommend just taking ONE step. That step is to arrange a consultation with Edith. That was the step I needed to transform my room of boxes into a functional living space that I now use everyday.
Sometimes, we just need our own personal 'General' to figure out how to make things work. The only thing you need to do is to be truthful in your answers to Edith's questions, and to make small decisions that she will present to you e.g. do you want to keep or give away these 5 shirts. Edith's energy eliminates the overwhelming aspect of getting organized, and her ideas and implementation take away the stress of having to do it.”

“I am so glad that Edith helped me with my move back to Ottawa! Just as the movers were unloading furniture helter-skelter into my home, Edith walked in and was able to direct the arrangement of the furniture, bookshelves, and contents to be organized from the very first moment. Edith has a wonderful ability to trouble-shoot and is able to visualize solutions quickly. WIth a subsequent triage to eliminate unnecessary items from my new home, the space looked like home and felt cozy. Thanks Edith for helping me settle into Ottawa and making the process fun along the way!”

“In June of 2007, the 5th grade teaching team at SFS recruited the help and expertise of professional organizer Edith Dandenault. (...) we realized that there were certain life skills that many students were lacking that could hinder their success as workloads and expectation increased. Our students needed to learn how to get and stay organized and know how to manage their time more efficiently. In a one-hour workshop, Edith discussed several practical ways to help kids become more organized with their time and their schoolwork. Her suggestions were easy to implement, and showed students how taking a few minutes to get organized every day actually saved them a lot of time and stress in the long run. My students left Edith's workshop feeling very excited and motivated to apply her ideas. This year, many of my former students have come to visit me, and many of them have said that they feel so much more relaxed about school because they know where all of their papers are, they know how much time they really have to complete assignments - essentially, they are organized! I have no doubt that Edith's workshop contributed to this positive change in many of the students' habits.”

“On the eve of purchasing a bigger home to fit all our stuff, you showed us that we could turn our current home into a haven simply by making it “clutter free”. "After only one day of working with you, you transformed our living space! It looks like a new home! We are as excited with the new look as if it were a newly purchased house - beautiful, clean and “clutter free”. "We look forward to getting home after a hard day to rest in our new surroundings. Before your help, we would worry that everywhere we looked, there were lists of things to do, and delayed projects hiding under every couch and in every corner. You ensured that we pulled out all the clutter skeletons from our closets. We are no longer scared to come home. Thank you!!!!!!”

“The decision to hire Edith was one of the best we had made in a long time. She helped us cut away habits and attitudes that had accumulated, along with the mess, over years. The result is a happier and more navigable home, free of unnecessary stress, guilt and irritation.”
