Our Owner
Edith Michel
Edie Michel’s enjoyment of project management, and her love for homes, décor and neat spaces drew her into professional organizing as a career.
On a personal level, Edie has developed a high level of compassionate understanding through her journey of caregiving and the stress of the sandwich generation. She knows from personal experience the comfort and peace of mind a trusted advisor can bring to the table in times of stress and transition.
She has held the role of primary caregiver, executor and trustee for her mother, sister and other family members and knows first hand the amount of energy, time and sincere compassion is demanded during these times. Edie found herself balancing young children, elderly and ill family members, downsizing with her mother twice from her family home and then from a condo into her own home. She recalls the emotional strain and feeling overwhelmed during those periods wanting to be everything to everyone
“It would have been wonderful during that difficult time to have had someone I trusted and who brought compassion and understanding to the process. Downsizing my mother meant discarding many sentimental items that told my family’s story – both good and bad. When my mother passed away, although she had downsized already, I remember how hard it was to pack away her clothes, remaining decor and mementos for the final time.”
Professionally, Edie’s honed her project management expertise and aptitude for organization through previous work with seniors, as well as in the financial services industry. Edie’s background as a charitable board member and skilled project manager helps her to bring the highest level of professionalism and efficiency to organizing services.
Edie strives to embrace best practices in organization and productivity through her memberships with Professional Organizers in Canada (POC) and National Association of Productivity and Organizing Professionals (NAPO). She is passionate about education, business connections, industry research and standards for professional organization, and brings all of these to her clients through her work with NEATSPACES.
Edie has held many volunteer positions, including with POC, The Junior League of Toronto, Rugby Ontario, JDRF and more.
