Creating the best environment for your family means everything to you.

You’re not a “hoarder” by any means, but somehow your possessions have gotten out of control.  You feel overwhelmed by the clutter and tired of feeling disorganised.

Only, you don’t know where to start.

You don’t have the time or can’t face the idea to do it on your own and it seems like every time you’ve tried, nothing’s changed. 

Hi, I’m Nathalie Ricaud.  I’m a professional organiser and founder of Get Organised & Beyond.

Originally from France, I’ve been living in Singapore since 1998. 

I work with families who feel overwhelmed by all the stuff they’ve accumulated in their home – being the clothes, the toys, the paper, the books, the photos, the digital files, you name it – or by even all the activities they’re trying to fit into their schedule.

I help them declutter, set up systems and embrace new habits so they can create and maintain a clutter-free, organised and peaceful home and make time for the important things in their life. 

You may wonder how someone can possibly enjoy clearing other people’s clutter, right?

Well, my passion for organising started as a child.  My mother had a habit of procrastinating on important things until the very last minute.  And my father had a tendency to collect a lot of stuff that, over the years, led to an overstuffed, cluttered garage. 

I carried my love for organising by embracing a career in Supply Chain Management.

I spent 20 years, planning and managing large projects, optimising warehouses’ space, processes and systems and driving efficiencies.  Unconsciously I started transferring the concepts I was using in the warehouses into my home.

Then I became a mother.  I was travelling quite extensively at that stage, and I needed to establish systems and routines so that things could run efficiently, even when I was not around.  I once again saw how organisation and time management were so crucial to keeping a family happy.

I also realised that not everyone was equipped with these skills when my friends, inspired by the way I was organising our home, started seeking my guidance in creating order in their homes.

Finding out there was a profession out there for something I was so passionate about was a big a-ha moment for me!  I quickly became certain that this was my calling.  It took me a while to find the courage to take the leap.  But eventually I did and Get Organised & Beyond was set up in 2013. 

I feel very privileged to be able to put my passion, my skills, my personal and professional experience together to help others get organised and transform their lives.

Because let’s face it: clutter and lack of organisation take a toll on people’s life, on their happiness, on their peace of mind and on the quality of their relationships with their loved ones.

And that’s what drives me in my job.  Seeing the transformation that happens in individuals and in families, not only with their physical spaces, but also at a mental and emotional level, when simple yet effective solutions are put in place to get organised and regain control over their schedule. 

The experience was spot on for me. Your approach was gently persuasive and manageable and led to great results. You made sure the decisions were my own, with impartiality from you. There was never any pressure to abandon items, instead, you guided the process carefully and cleverly with your questions and conversations.

If you see Nathalie in person, you will immediately get that sense that, oh my, she is born to do this work. As a coach, she not only provides the skills which is the “doing part” but also supports the client to shift the inner process and build up the confidence which is essential.

Nathalie is a goldmine. She came up with a number of ideas when she visited our home. She then spent time understanding our mindsets and coaching us. Nathalie is a fabulous coach and really understands how to help people declutter both their homes and their lives. Under her guidance, we moved from landed 2,500 sqft houses and condos to eventually being able to fit our lives into our own tiny sub 1,000 sqft HDB flat and yet having tons of space!
