Work with Ann
“I feel like I can finally breathe.”
That’s what I often hear from the parents who worked with me, the same parents who once:
Tried to organize by themselves but the clutter kept coming back
Tried to involve the family but ended up more frustrated
Tried using rewards but spent more time negotiating
Tried using consequences but created more power struggle
If that sounds like you, I applaud the effort you've already put in. It takes a lot to keep trying. And I'm glad you found me. I genuinely love this work and the families I get to do it with. It’s an honor to be part of bringing relief to a home that needs it.
I take a lot of pride in offering gentle, judgment-free guidance to help your family organize together at a pace that fits your needs, and include your kids in ways that build them up.
This is the heart of Simple Joy with Ann, my home organizing business — and the foundation of the Dooley Method: organizing with your children, not for them, through connection first.
What to expect when we work together:
Guidance and support without judgment
Children are included in ways that build confidence, not overwhelm
Systems that make sense to your family
A focus on teaching skills, not forcing compliance
Collaborative, thoughtful work with long-term results in mind
My commitment to help your family strengthen connection through home organizing
Virtual Session
$275 (2 hours via Zoom)
Virtual sessions are often where the most lasting progress happens. Because you’re doing the hands-on work yourself, with me guiding you in real time, you build the skills and confidence to keep going long after we’re done.
Includes after-session notes, unlimited email follow-ups, and a complimentary 30-minute consultation to start.
In-Home Session
$575 (3 hours)
When I’m there in person, we can cover more ground together in a shorter amount of time. I roll up my sleeves and work alongside you and your family — listening, problem solving creatively, and making sure everyone feels part of the process.
Available in Lower and Midtown Manhattan, Brooklyn Heights, Cobble Hill, Park Slope, Downtown Brooklyn, and DUMBO. Additional locations may be available with travel fees.
Includes unlimited email follow-ups and a complimentary 30-minute consultation to start.

The Dooley Method was developed with children ages 3–12 in mind. Whether they let go easily or hold on to everything, the earlier families begin, the more naturally these habits take root.
