Errands & Appointments

​
All plans are discussed in advance and tailored to individual preferences and comfort levels.
Home Cleaning
Light, maintenance-focused support
We provide light home cleaning to help maintain comfortable, functional living spaces. This may include tidying, dishes, laundry, light kitchen and bathroom cleaning, and general upkeep.
Services are intended to support daily maintenance rather than deep or commercial cleaning.
Home Organization
Creating calm, workable spaces
Organization support focuses on reducing clutter and creating simple, sustainable systems that make daily life easier. This may include organizing closets, kitchens, shared spaces, paperwork areas, or routines within the home.

Support is always collaborative and paced to suit individual comfort and decision-making.

Plant care support may include watering, light pruning, rotating plants, and general upkeep. Services can be provided regularly or during periods of travel or illness.

Seasonal outdoor upkeep
Light yard maintenance may include raking leaves, sweeping walkways, watering outdoor plants, tidying outdoor spaces, and other small tasks that support safety and comfort around the home.
Paperwork & Admin Support
Gentle help with everyday administration

This service does not include legal, financial, or decision-making responsibilities.
Seasonal & Transitional Support
Extra support during times of change
Life transitions can make everyday tasks feel heavier. We offer practical support during periods such as seasonal changes, recovery from illness, downsizing, moving, or adjusting to new routines.
Services are paced thoughtfully and adapted to each situation.
Household Coordination
Helping routines run more smoothly
Household coordination may include creating task lists, supporting routines, coordinating household needs, or helping families and caregivers stay organized during busy or demanding periods.
This service is especially helpful for households balancing multiple responsibilities.
Flexible & Personalized Support
Everyday Home & Life Support is fully customizable. Services can be short-term or ongoing, and support can change over time as needs evolve. If you’re unsure whether something fits within this service, we’re happy to talk it through.
