Our Proven Process Produces Results

I contacted Transitions TLC to help me with an upcoming relocation. My husband had already moved out of town for his new job and I was completely anxious and overwhelmed with all of the stuff that needed to be moved. I was embarrassed at how my house had “gotten away from me” over the years, with not only our possessions, but additional items from another family member. At our first meeting, I was in literally in tears and the task was so overwhelming that I didn’t even know how to begin to address this monumental task. I simply didn’t have the time, energy or motivation to deal with it. Christy was such a tremendous help. There was never any judgement on her part and I appreciated her calm demeanor and her approach to “just taking it one step at a time.”

She helped me categorize our furnishings and to keep only what I would use, need or love. She had many resources and knew exactly where I could sell or gift our many keepsakes and antiques. We have a relocation budget, and I know we will stick to it by having fewer boxes to move. In addition, when we get in our new home, I can put into practice the new organizing techniques that I learned from her. I am so grateful for her help and I highly recommend Christy to others.

“I have known Christy for over 25 years and she is a delightful, caring person and helps others with a smile. She assisted us in organizing our home in Ladue. After 4 children and 30 years of clutter, we were ready to address the problem. Christy listened to us, then led us room by room to discuss her strategies. She helped us with our furnishings, and organizing our closets, and shelves. She was innovative and prepared and labeled everything in our closets. Afterwards she sure that everything had a proper place and was easy to locate. Christy went the extra mile during every session. We were impressed with her foresight, and her expertise was invaluable. She is very easy to work with and definitely exceeded our expectations!”

“As a home stager, many times when working with homeowners to get their home ready for the market, years of clutter have taken their toll. Many sellers simply don’t know where to begin to start decluttering their home in preparation for staging. That’s when I call Christy. She is so warm and compassionate with my clients and takes all of the stress and anxiety out of the situation. I have worked with Christy for years and highly recommend her whether you are selling or buying a home, or just need organization in your life.”

As a busy professional I simply did not have the time to pack, organize, and wait around for movers. Christy helped me by organizing and packing all the small knick knack things from my kitchen, bedroom, living room, basement, office, and bathroom. In the new place she was able to reorganize all the miscellaneous items in a new way that saved space and looked great. I consider myself a tidy person but Christy’s expertise in organizing shed a new light and respect for professional organizers. Christy was also able to help me save time by being available and attentive to the movers while I was at work. I have moved five times in the past three years and if I have to move again she is my first call. Christy gave me piece of mind, comfort, and flexibility in a stressful moving situation.

“My wife and I contacted Christy to help us organize our home that we were getting ready to sell. She had great solutions when it came to organizing our children’s toys, by creating additional storage space in the basement. Once the space was organized properly, she was able to get children on board with a list of activities to reinforce the habit of tidying up after playtime. We actually ended up staying in our home instead of listing it!”

In the Design business, one of the first steps towards creating a beautiful and functional interior is establishing an organized and clutter-free environment. This can be an overwhelming and low-priority project for many homeowners; the true value of an organized space is rarely appreciated until it is achieved. For clients who need that extra help getting started, I refer them to Christy at Transitions TLC. In a caring and non-judgmental way, Christy will take the time to listen to you, understand how your household works, and then help you organize your space by guiding you through the process of deciding what needs to be kept and what does not.  Once you make the decision to let go of something, Christy will take care of all the details and leg-work: The end result is a beautifully organized space and much less stress! Not only will you love working with Christy, you will love how quickly she’s able to bring order to your world.

After 20+ years in the same house, the storage room of our basement had become a “black hole” where items (large and small) were randomly stored and never disposed of, creating clutter and chaos. The thought of trying to organize and edit this space was so overwhelming that I avoided it for years: I finally admitted that I was never going to do it myself, did not WANT to do it myself, and if I wanted it organized, I needed professional help! So I called Christy at Transitions TLC. Christy was amazing!! If I had known how quickly and painlessly she could complete this project, I would have called her in years ago!  First she helped me decide what to keep and what to let go of; and whether an item went to trash, goodwill, consignment or somewhere else, Christy took care of it all. What would have taken me months (or longer), took Christy no time at all. Not only is she organized and efficient, she LIKES the entire process. Go figure. That’s why she’s great at what she does and the rest of us are not. I can’t recommend her highly enough; she’s wonderful. And of course, completely honest and trustworthy. For whatever project or transition you need help with, Christy should be your first call!

I was so impressed with how much that was accomplished in 2 1/2 hours. They reorganized part of my kitchen and really had a great vision of where my own belongings were better placed! I would highly recommend them in your home organizing project.

It is without hesitation that I recommend Christy DeJohn, of Transitions TLC, for any organizational product throughout the home. In June of 2013, I asked Christy to come into my home and help me get organized. My husband and I are expecting our second child in a few months and we needed help preparing our home for that arrival. When I started to tackle this project independently, I was immediately overwhelmed and had a difficult time knowing where to begin. I called Christy and within minutes of her arrival I felt much better about the project at hand and the overall transition for my family. After a through consultation, Christy and I decided that the best place to start this large project was the linen closet and we dove in! The first day we worked together, she was very understanding of the current state of my home and helpful in the purge process. What impressed me most with her system was that, as a team, we took on manageable chunks without leaving my home in shambles!  The first day, the purge and sort day, was eye opening! At the close of the day, we had the closet empty and the contents in neat boxes along the wall. This process allowed me to feel the sense of accomplishment without the overwhelming anxiety of creating a larger mess. The following day, Christy returned and within hours what was a disorganized pile of stuff became a functional linen closet that held more than I thought possible! Transitions TLC is an amazing company that provides support for the most overwhelming projects. While we have only just begun, I know that with her help, my home will be ready for the new arrival. Christy is caring, understanding and patient and I know that she will succeed with any mess that she comes across.

Christy DeJohn is a reliable, honest and extremely proficient worker. I’ve had her in my own home many times and am completely comfortable with her organizing without me being there. She’s not only a lovely person but honest as the day is long.

Christy helped me organize many years’ worth of clothing and paperwork. It was a wonderful experience – like working side by side with a best friend or partner. She assisted me in making decisions on what to keep and what to discard. She also established a new system for me to keep everything organized and in its rightful place. The process was very rewarding and everything went so smoothly. I highly recommend Christy to others!
