About: Cara   

Cara Persram - Professional Organizer in Canada. Experienced home organizer and stager.

Hello, I’m Cara, owner of The Passionate Organizer. The pleasure of uncluttered spaces and the ease of efficient functionality is priceless. I'm delighted to help people reach their goal of transforming their home or office into an organized, harmonious environment that's easy to maintain. I provide customized organizing solutions based on your needs, style preferences and goals.

In my twenties, I worked in health care (administration and assisted living) while raising my children before going back to school to become a software developer and business analyst – an engaging career that spanned over 20 years. Now, for more than 6 years, I enjoy focusing my career on my true passion – looking after a home and office and helping others to organize and enjoy theirs.

During my journey of intensive study and preparation to become a Professional Organizer, I:

  • have completed a certificate in Professional Organizing with IAP Career College and am a member of the International Association of Professional Organizations (IAPO);
  • have completed the intensive course and am a member of Inspired Organizers;
  • am a Silver Leaf member of the Professional Organizers in Canada;
  • am a lifelong learner, continually striving to be able to provide the best service to my clients.

After spending most of my life in Saskatchewan, the West Island is called 'home' to me and my little dogs, and I'm proud to be a part of this vibrant community.

 

There has been this one closet in our house that I have been avoiding dealing with for years because it was where I had stored lots of the things I had more of an emotional attachment to and was avoiding dealing with. Cara was exactly who I needed to help me tackle it without feeling overwhelmed by the process. It was much easier to decide what I wanted to keep and what could go with a neutral person there to help me by asking thoughtful questions about whether keeping certain things aligned with the goals I had set, and not being judgmental about the couple of times I still chose to keep something even though it technically didn't meet my criteria. Ultimately, I felt supported in the choices I made, the things I chose to keep were nearly organized and the rest either boxed up for donation, sale, or the garbage, and by the end of our time that closet looked amazing!" ~ Veronica W.
