hello, I'm Ruth​
​
A Professional Home Organiser based in Ascot, Berkshire. Having always suffered from anxiety myself, I love the feeling of calm when my house is clean, tidy & organised, I started Happy Home Ascot to help people feel happier and more relaxed in their homes.
I truly believe that decluttering and living with less 'visual noise' is life-changing! I live with my husband Dave, our children Aoife & Joe who have inherited our dry sense of humour by the bucketload, and our cats Monty & Willow who destroy our house but complete our home!
​
I can quickly transform any space, with systems which make it easy to tidy and maintain - leaving you more time for what matters. I understand why and how clutter builds up, and know exactly how to solve it!
I've always wanted a varied job, where I can make a positive difference, meet a range of people and laugh every single day. Meeting my lovely clients and working in their homes is an absolute privilege which never feels like work to me.
"Organisation to me isn't about having a perfect house - but a home which is easy to tidy & relaxing to live in!"

Organising Essentials
So lovely for putting clothes, linen or towels in. You could also use to store seasonal items away at the top of your wardrobe. Or for children's toys - the options are endless
IKEA Skubb boxes are amazing for dividing clothes into categories in drawers... or anywhere!
Flocked slimline hangers create a really streamlined look in your wardrobe. They also create so much more space around your clothes so you can see what you have!

How does your decluttering service work?I have worked with hundreds of clients from all walks of life and have learned that clutter builds up in every home, regardless of size! I work intuitively with each client to reduce clutter by working methodically but meticulously through each area with a real 'in it together' approach. I care about and have fun with my clients to make every session fun and cathartic, whilst respecting your unique preferences to get the best results every time. I will help you to thoroughly declutter by taking all of the stress out of the process - you'll just have to make a few decisions throughout the day. I'm never bossy or pushy, and there are always loads of laughs throughout the day as we work together to reset your space. Any items which you no longer use, need or want can either be donated or recycled to be enjoyed by someone else, and regain some space in your home.

What are the benefits of hiring a Home Organiser?Every person and home is unique, as is your perception of clutter. For some people, cluttered surfaces make them feel stressed, and for others, knowing that there is disorganisation inside of closed cupboards will play on their minds. Whichever it is, decluttering can take time and feel overwhelming & unappealing. It's actually easier to keep something than to make the decision about where it should live (in our homes or otherwise) - this is why clutter builds up so quickly. A home organiser will take all of the overwhelm out of decluttering & organising your home. To do the job properly and create systems which are easy to maintain is definitely a skill & we have laser-focus on getting your space exactly how you want it. We motivate, support and help you achieve your personal goals for your space. We get the job done quickly, thoroughly & most importantly make it feel cathartic & fun!

How much do your services cost?Following an initial consultation, I will give a tailored estimate for how long I think your project will take. Many clients would like their whole home sorted - so I break this down by area, starting with the one which is affecting them the most. As a general rule, I complete a room per day (£300 daily rate). It's really important to hire a Professional Organiser that you like & trust. I provide a very personal service & you will spend some time with me making decisions about decluttering so starting with one area is a good trial of whether I'm the right fit for you!

What areas do you cover?I am based in Ascot, and work in homes across Virginia Water, Weybridge, Windlesham and Windsor . I do work further afield for existing clients who are moving/have moved, and will travel within Berkshire & Surrey.
