“It was incredible working with Ann. My family has put what she has taught us into practice. We’ve removed unnecessary clutter. My kids have been helping picking up items and putting them where they belong. The positive affirmations has built their confidence. I can’t thank her enough!”

"Thanks so much, Ann! I feel happy! And my husband too! I look around and see the progress we’ve made and think about what we want to accomplish, then I feel a burst of energy! It’s like a new vibe has us bubbly and active all day long! Our marriage is happier these days, too! It’s amazing!"

"Ann has inspired me to restart my parenting journey. I saw myself turning into a raging mom who never has time to play, and angry that I spend so much time cleaning up. After learning from Ann, I finally connected with myself and my kids authentically, and can keep our home in order."
A, parent of 2

"I have been praying for order in every aspect in my home, and the way Ann put Connection Time into the process has opened my eyes. First, connection, then everything else will fall into place. I feel such relieved and my children are happier too. I love that they like being helpers!"

Hi, I’m Ann Dooley.
As a certified Master-Level KonMari Home Organizer and connection-based parenting coach, I developed the Dooley Method because I lived through the struggles you're facing. Growing up with "tough love" and clutter, I later found myself repeating those patterns with my own children. That difficult journey, and the powerful lessons I learned along the way, led me to bridge the gap between organizing and parenting. I'm glad you're here, and I'm confident my book will help your family thrive.
