Client Testimonials
"Sandi and her assistant organizer helped my husband and I transform our basement office in a day! They were phenomenal! We could not have done this without them. They were patient and easy to talk to. They were very open minded, kind, and we felt very comfortable with them both. If you need help organizing a room or your whole home, they’re your girls! They had a great eye for how to move furniture around and picture how it would all be laid out in the room. They hauled away bags and bins of donations which was a huge relief. Trash was brought out to the curb. They acted like it was their own home and took great pride in it. I transitioned from an office to my home, and they even set up our computer, printer, and scanner. We’re ecstatic with the finished product."

"Sandi was a joy to work with. She totally transformed a big mess (hoarder’s paradise!) into neat, organized areas. She went above and beyond my expectations. Would definitely recommend her and if need arises, will surely use her services again!" Sandra P. |

"I am so glad I used Hello Simplified. It’s been about 2 weeks since we tackled the clothes in my bedroom. My dresser is no longer over flowing and my closet is so neat, tidy, and easy to access! I’ve been able to maintain the organization because it was organized in such a way that makes everything so much easier to do. I am so satisfied with my experience & definitely want to do more throughout my house with Sandi!"

I worked with Sandi on financial organizing, and I am so glad I did! As a full-time employee and a part time graduate student, I was feeling overwhelmed with how to prioritize my finances. I had so man questions - how much do I put towards loans? Should I first focus on saving for the next classes or reducing the debt I already have? How do I support myself as I complete unpaid internships in a way that takes the whole financial picture into play? Sandi helped me understand how to financially organize the present and future financial picture. It has felt like a breath of fresh air to have actionable steps to take to make it less overwhelming. Thank you so much Sandi; I recommend her to anyone, at any stage in their finances, to walk you forward in financial organization!

"With two homes and a dog, plus 2 careers, my husband and I had trouble keeping things organized. Finding Sandi D'Arezzo has made a world of difference! She is easy to work with and has gotten our house organized quickly. We heartily recommend her!"
B. Stewart, MD I am so happy I connected with Sandi. She saved my move and was great to work with. I was overwhelmed and she helped in so many ways. I highly recommend her for organizing your life or helping out in a pinch. Shirley R. |
Wow! Sandi is the new “Space force”! My husband and I combined two households 5 years ago. We were overwhelmed with all our combined “stuff” and never addressed it. Our basement was close to a scene from “Hoarders” and even the mice were getting in on the action. The office, closets, and basement all became a vast dumping ground. What a mess!
I was embarrassed to hire Sandi and let her see the clutter and chaos but from the moment she arrived I felt comfortable, empowered, and confident that she was up to the job. Enter Sandi and exit the mess! Her suggestions, ideas, and inspiration were remarkable. I felt like I was on a healing adventure, enjoying every step of the process.
She broke the job into small doable parts. She brought bins, hauled away donations, and gave us receipts.
Not only did she organize but taught me how to find a spot for everything. Sandi was professional but also friendly, warm, and very flexible with her time. I highly recommend her!

"Sandi has lifted a burden that has made my life way more organized and a joy to go down to my office to enjoy the view to the outdoors and especially indoors. She made what seemed would be a dreadful process actually fun with her cheerfulness, wonderful ideas, and questions that made me think about the space in ways I had never done before. The transformation eliminated the stress I used to feel every time I had to go to the office and now it’s one of the most serene rooms in the house. She is definitely 100% ★★★★★!"

Like most people my age, I have a considerable amount of student loan debt. For years since I graduated, I felt as though I was just treading water with my payments and not making any significant progress. Sandi helped me figure out a budget and encouraged me to list out all of my debts and come up with a plan. She was non-judgmental, easy going, and had great ideas I hadn't thought of. It was super helpful to sit down with her and talk through my finances and what was stressing me out the most. I have a plan to pay down my debt and way more motivation to do it. Now that I have an actual plan, my stress has been considerably reduced. If you don't have a budget, hire Sandi stat! You'll end up actually saving money and feel so much better about your financial life.

"I cannot speak highly enough of Sandi's approach to organizing. I moved from a home of 20 years into a new house and was overwhelmed trying to commit to places to store all our things. Sandi came in, sifted through absolute chaos in several rooms and established order! Sandi also helped me shed even more "stuff" that I really no longer needed to keep.
With Sandi's help, my new house, finally feels like "home" again. I'd give her more stars in this rating if I could. :-D"

"Working with Sandi of Hello Simplified was indeed easy, simple, and fun! Sandi helped me get right to the task of organizing a closet space that had become a nightmare for me. She patiently took me through her step-by-step process of decluttering and was flexible and professional in her approach. By asking thoughtful questions about my needs and goals for the space, Sandi was able to assist me in creating a space that is now organized, clean, and user friendly. Thanks to her, I am now able to access things quickly and effortlessly. I highly recommend Hello Simplified to anyone who is looking for help with getting organized!"

"I Highly recommend Hello Simplified for any home organization. Sandi walked through the entire process and broke it all down, so I didn’t feel overwhelmed. She made the steps easy and seamless. We worked together on the pantry to start and then I let her organize it to finish the details and layout. She made sure the layout worked for me and asked me questions beforehand to see what already worked and didn’t for the space. The entire pantry was finished in less than 3 hours so we were able to work on my cleaning closet as well!
You get so much value from just one session. This included speaking on the phone at the beginning of the process, then a consultation in your home. I was then sent a custom Pinterest Board with many examples and suggestions and an overview of our plan. Sandi made me feel comfortable throughout the process. She gave me tips for letting items go and keeping things in the pantry organized after the session. Sandi is flexible, approachable and very easy to work with. I am thrilled with the outcome and wish I had engaged Sandi earlier!"

Sandi started in October 2017 with her biggest package which we have been renewing ever since! Her help has been invaluable to us and has taken a lot of stress from our lives. The principal problem was my wife was coming down with Alzheimer’s. She, for instance, had 62 pairs of black slacks in several sizes scattered around the house. We also had an apartment in MA near her office which Sandi helped close down and consolidated with our house in NH... not a small task and she took it on with a smile.

There were thousands of photographs covering 1912-2019 that she organized into albums. Then there was the valuable jewelry, her tax records, etc. I also had her work on our closets and drawers, she hung many paintings, and organized and decluttered most other areas of our home. Everything is organized now and Sandi sends organizers every Sunday to maintain the organized spaces and do any small projects that come up, since my wife does tend to take things out of drawers, leave things like mugs all over the house, and the mail that used to disappear is now dealt with every week. It is a very nice improvement and well worth the money.

Sandi's work was AMAZING! She beautified my closets and pantry like is was nothing...something that has been on my to-do list for years! Plus, she made it so easy by picking up the organizing pieces I liked and taking away my unwanted stuff! I highly recommend Hello Simplified!!

"First and foremost, I have to thank yelp for helping me find Sandi and Hello Simplified in the first place. Secondly, I want to thank Sandi for being so supportive and taking the time to learn about our situation. My dad has a lot on his plate, but I am learning that there are multiple ways to support full-time family caregivers so they can find balance in their own lives despite the 24/7 responsibility.
One of the challenges I see from the outside is a lack of time to get household chores done, enjoying hobbies, or even ongoing projects that are on hold ‘until I have time’. I also have adopted the procrastinators mantra- why put off what you can do tomorrow until the day after tomorrow!!! -mark twain So, needless to say, over time, accumulation of stuff and piles is likely inevitable.

My dad said working with Sandi changed his life, and from his daughter who lives halfway across the world, to witness the transformation has been humbling and a relief. Over the years of going back to visit, I have not been able to figure out a process, there’s never enough time! And this is coming from a profession where my duties are in project management and require organization!

When he admitted he could never have done it alone because it had become so overwhelming was a surprise. He said being able to breathe easier, feel like the space is open and welcoming, gives room for creativity and growth rather than stress and negative self- view. The space that was cleared is now nicknamed ‘the sanctuary’ and is the most peaceful place in the house.
Manageable amounts of time for the sessions themselves and multiple sessions allowed him to get into a routine and I saw him wanting and looking forward to her help. It has showed me that there is vision and skill involved from an outside perspective which is virtually impossible with family members.
We are all in need of support with these demanding lives we lead. He is so motivated to keep going with all the other spots he works in!!! What growth it showed that my dad was open to the guidance and transformation!"

I can not say enough good things about Sandi and what she does. I hired Sandi because after being a single mother, for about 6 years now, I desperately needed to get my finances in order for a court trial. How I have ever made it through without knowing what she has taught me, I will never know. She is so kind and non judgemental and motivating that I actually feel GOOD about saving money now!! I made up what I paid to hire her and then some, just by going through my finances, and discovering things I was paying for, that I had forgotten about!! I had been paying for iTunes for YEARS and haven't had an iPhone. HOW?!! Sandi kept me on track and helped me to cancel accounts, pay off accounts, and start savings accounts that will benefit my future. Not only that, but refunds were instated, and rewards were used to pay down debt. I have ADD and had bills spread out on my entire dining room table and within a month we have sorted it all out into a simple budget and my dining room table is completely cleared!! This is going to sound strange but I think of her as my golden goose! This woman is AMAZING!! I can not wait to see what she can do for my son's playroom! If you need help to simplify and organize any part of your life then you MUST hire Hello Simplified.

A++ for Sandi and Hello-Simplified!! Sandi helped us clean and organize our house before a cross-country move. She helped us work through multiple closets, a garage, and our lawn/garden supplies. She was extremely friendly and helpful throughout the day. But more importantly, she helped us focus our attention on the task at hand -- sorting things into "keep", "donate", and "trash". With Sandi's help, we were able to finish it all in just a few hours.

"As a busy mom and business owner I have struggled to find the time to keep my house as organized as I would like. Sandi spent the day with me recently and we tackled projects that have been on my to-do list for several years. It was the best Christmas present I could have gotten myself. Not only can I take a deep breath in my home, but she also taught me a process of de-cluttering that I have used a handful of times on my own since her visit. Sandi is easy to work with and I have already given her name to several people. You won't regret hiring her!" ALEXIS R. |

I enjoyed having Sandi help me organize my garage. She kept me so efficient that we had time to organize an additional closet and the kitchen pantry. I love how easy she made the whole experience by taking away the items to donate and providing me a receipt. Highly recommend her services!!

I worked with Sandi and Becca to declutter and prepare my house for my husband's surprise birthday party. They coached me along in letting go of items that no longer served me and helped things like my bookshelves look more aesthetically pleasing. We worked on my dining room to start, which had become a dumping ground for donations and other piles. I loved that donations were taken away every session without my having to worry about it anymore. The biggest change was our kitchen. They completely rethought where items should go to have the best flow and labeled cabinets so my whole family could put things away. The party was a success and now we have our organized home to enjoy long after it too!
