​Memberships and Qualifications

Picture
Originally from Miami, Florida, Nicole moved to Central Florida in 1992, 5 days before Hurricane Andrew. Before she finished high school, she started college courses and went on to receive her Associates Degree in Business Administration, specializing in Management. She learned more organizational skills during her 13-year career in banking, where she was a resourced organizational guru at the credit union branches she managed. 

Although she had always been an organized person, Nicole struggled to maintain an organized home during her transition into motherhood in 2012. Finding her way through that stage of her life in a small home with no storage, she used her journey of learning how to declutter and downsize the contents of her home to help others through the same or similar organizational challenges.

Nicole started her independent Professional Organizing business in 2013 in an effort to help others organize through all of life's stages. Four years later, Nicole's husband Danny joined her as her partner at Organized Haven, now a full-service moving, downsizing, and estates company. They and their team offer home and office organizing, downsizing and estate sales, senior move management, aging-in-place services, space planning, moving, packing & unpacking, home inventories, estate clearing, and staging homes for sale. 

Organized Haven specializes in assisting older adults & their families who are facing the overwhelming task of decluttering & downsizing and either moving or aging-in-place. Senior service advocates, senior living communities, realtors, estate attorneys, and others in the community rely on the physical and emotional support Organized Haven provides to their seniors and their families.

"I am originally a self-taught Professional Organizer, using my extensive experience in managing credit union branches, my education in Business Management, and my extreme love for organization as stepping stones when I started my exciting venture in 2013.

We sign and abide by NASMMs strict Code of Ethics and are supported by the NASMM Ethics Compliance Commission, which guides our conduct, and we are vetted for experience prior to being referred.

What Our Clients are Saying:

"My mother had lived in her home for over 65 years when she passed, so the house was filled to the brim. Nicole and her team were outstanding. They came to the house, presented a plan to remove all of the items through an online auction. They inventoried all items, separated the items into individual lots and managed the auction, down to the last item being paid for, picked up and removed from the house! The payment for their services and transfer of the proceeds was seamless. I was left with an empty house that I could then get ready for sale. Perfect! Couldn't have asked for a better solution to an overwhelming situation!"
