Hi, I’m Hilary Erickson from The Pregnancy Nurse. How can I help?

Based on my Organized Home materials, I actually don’t recommend a ton of fancy tools. I focus on:

  1. Using what you already have: repurposed baskets, boxes, and inexpensive containers (many of mine are from Goodwill)
  2. Simple drawer dividers and small bins for “zones” in drawers and cupboards
  3. Labels (even basic masking tape and a marker) to remind everyone where things go
  4. A notepad or notes app to track problem areas and shopping lists
  5. A timer (phone is fine) to do quick 10–15 minute declutter sprints

Is there a specific room you want gear ideas for—kitchen, bedroom, kids’ stuff, or paperwork?
