Q: Is this a good job for a stay at home mom? from Kim in Minnesota

A: Yes and no.

If you have support to take care of small children it’s a great job.
If you don’t, it is nearly impossible to do the job unless you put children into care or  in school.

You will need to be able to leave your home for  for 3-5 hours at a time to work on site with clients unless you are doing virtual organizing.
The benefits are awesome. You can make your schedule match school hours as you children get bigger. You can take days off when children are sick, have functions to go to, or just for vacation. You truly can set your own schedule to match your life.

This is the primary reason I chose organizing as a profession.
