Holidays,
Handled

A seasonal house manager for Charlotte families who want the magic without the to-do list.  Gifts shopped + wrapped.  Your home dressed for the season.  The behind-the-scenes of hosting done for you.  You just show up + enjoy it.

WHO THIS IS FOR

You LOVE the holidays.  Or maybe you don't + that's where the need comes in.  You also don't have forty free hours to do all the things to make things happen.

​

Your calendar is full before December even starts.  You've got the budget to make it beautiful.  What you don't have is the time to drive to six stores, hunt down the tape + wrap at midnight on the 23rd.  Wheww chile, I've been there.

​

You want your people to open something that feels like you actually picked it.  You want your house to look like the holidays live there.  And you want to sit down at your own party.

​

That's what I'm here for.

What I Take Off Your Plate

​Gifts, curated + wrapped.  For your family, your clients or your team.  You give me the list + the budget.  I learn a little about each person, shop with them in mind, wrap everything beautifully, tagged + delivered to your door or set-up right under the tree.  I only purchase directly from the list so you see it beforehand, unless you tell me to just handle it.

​

Your home, dressed for the season.  Tree, mantle, front door, table.  I pull it out of storage, set it up + make it feel like you.  January I take it all down, pack it labeled + put back where it lives.

​

Hosting, with ease.  I'm not your cook + I'm not your cleaner.  I'm the one running it behind the scense.  I book the caterer or pick up the food from your gavorite spots, bring in the rentals, set the table + the space before your guests ring the bell.  Then I come back that night or the next morning, take it all down + put your home back like the party never happened.

​

The holiday calendar.  Teacher + coworker gifts, travel prep before you leave + a reset when you get home.

 

Also on the menu:

​​

  • Wrap drop-off.  Already bought everything?  Drop it off.  I'll wrap, tag + have ready for pick-up or delivery.

  • Holiday cards + tip envelops.  I clean up your address list, order + mail your cards.  Get the tip envelopes ready for your nanny, your cleaner, your mail carrier + the coaches.

  • Guest-ready home.  Fresh linens in the guest room, a welcome basket + a schedule for who's landing when.

  • The January reset. Closets + toy bins cleared before the new stuff takes over, donations + consignment support, retuns + exchanges handled.

How It Works

  1. Grab 20 minutes with me. Tell me what your season looks like + what you want off your plate. 

  2. ​I build your holiday plan. The list, the dates, the budget + exactly what I'm handling.

  3. I handle it. You get updates, photos along the way + a home that feels ready.
     

Gift shopping is priced around your list + budget.  Everything else is built around your household.  You'll know the full investment before anything starts.I keep a small holiday roster on purpose.  Gift shopping, decorating + hosting run November through December 20th.  January is for take-down, returns + resets.

ALREADY A HOUSE MANAGER CLIENT?

Holiday support folds right into your regular visits.  Just tell me what you want handled during your scheduled time.

Questions, Answered

Do you shop for everybody on my list? Yes.  Kids, partners, in-laws, teachers, coworkers, the neighbor who always brings you something.  If they're on your list, they're on mine.

​

Do I get a say in the gifts?  Always!  You see every pick before I buy it.  Some of my families tell me to just handle it + some have very specific items.  Both ways work.

​

How does the gift money work?  You pay the stores directly.  If you are having me pick, I send you my picks as links or set them up for store pickup in my name; you check out on your own card + I handle the rest.  Your money never runs through me + every receipt is already yours.

 

Do you cook or clean?  No.  Think house manager or family assistant, not housekeeper.  I coordinate the people, the pieces, set everything up + handle the take down after.  If you need a cleaner or a caterer, I'll book them + manage them for you.

​

Isn't this a doula business?  Same hands.  Doula work is holding a family through a big season.  The holidays are a big season.

 

Do you only work in Charlotte?  Decorating + hosting are in person in Charlotte + the surrounding areas.  Gift shopping can ship anywhere your people are.​

This year, you get to enjoy it too.

Small roster, on purpose.  It starts with 20 minutes.
