Yvette at Lighten Up is wonderful to work with and I highly recommend her. I am a busy mom with three children and she has helped me organize my whole house including the office, attic, basement and garage. Tons of experience, smart, and kind. Worth every penny.

Yvette was great to work with! She was thoughtful, careful and respected the wishes of the entire family. I cannot say enough good things about her. She was always on time and stayed until the job was completed. She made suggestions and brought extra shelving and time saving items to better organize a particular space. She took before and after photos and kept careful account of where everything was located. I will definately use Yvette again!

Yvette helped me purge, separate and organize my closet, freestanding wardrobe, linen closet, dresser top, drawers, bathroom medicine cabinet and space beneath the bathroom sink/My closets were not functional and the available space was not properly maximized/Yvette is non judgmental and very matter of fact when it comes to communicating ones organizational needs and their solutions/I used the tools she gave me to totally revamp the kitchen and other closets/Now its almost effortless to keep things in order because everything has a place and things with no purpose are discarded, no emotions attached/Now I have the momentum and direction to execute the strategy provided and to keep things in check.

Yvette is very pleasant to work with and she is very efficient. I will be calling her back some time in the not to distant future.

Yvette is a wonderful organizer. I was essentially hands off and told her to go for it. She took a laundry room that was completely cluttered with overflow thanksgiving dinner cookware, plates and utensils, barbeque equipment, outdoor games and toys, bulk toilet paper and paper towels, etc. and made it into a large organized space. I didn't think it was possible. The only thing I had to do was buy some storage bins, decide what was trash and what could be donated. She did everything else. She was a pure joy to work with and I plan to have her organize my basement next!

Seal of Approval

What is the screening process that Service Professionals go through in order to become members of the HomeAdvisor network?

  1. Verify Trade License
    HomeAdvisor checks to see if the business carries the appropriate state-level license.
  2. Verify Insurance
    As a part of our screening process, we encourage professionals to carry general liability insurance. We require coverage for hundreds of services.
  3. Verification of State Business Filings
    For business types that require a Secretary of State filing, we confirm that the business is in good standing in the state in which it is located.
  4. Criminal Records Search
    HomeAdvisor uses 3rd party data sources to conduct a criminal search for any relevant criminal activity associated with the owner/principal of the business.
  5. Sex Offender Search
    We confirm that the owner/principal is not listed on the official state Sex Offender web site in the state in which the owner/principal of the company is located.
  6. Bankruptcy Search
    We use 3rd party data sources to check the history of the principal/owner of the business for bankruptcy filings by or against them.
  7. Legal Search for Civil Judgments
    We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for state level civil legal judgments entered against them.
  8. Liens Search
    We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for liens placed against them.
  9. Identity Verification (SSN)
    HomeAdvisor verifies the social security number(s) of the owner/principal for identity check purposes. This check applies primarily to smaller business entities.
  10. Identity Verification (Reverse Phone Lookup)
    We conduct a reverse business phone lookup to identify records matching the phone number information provided by the business.
