Simplicity Services

Vicky is an absolute must if you’re looking for anything around getting your home organised. I am going through a high risk difficult pregnancy, just moved down to Durban and completely overwhelmed. She helped unpack, sort and declutter. She got my baby’s room organised, helped tidy cupboards, lovingly helped me let go of family furniture, linen, silverware crockery and cutlery that I collected over the years but never used. She was very understanding and kind. I loved working with her and her assistant Londiwe. Great team!

Vicky is amazing! She stepped in during a time of family bereavement and trauma and literally managed everything for us. She was kind, professional and empathetic and kept us up to date each step of the way with WhatsApp photos and messages. Even the inevitable glitches that come with clearing out an entire apartment (like the desk not fitting through the door), she handled with a calm confidence, and we felt completely comfortable trusting her with the process while we were back in Cape Town. We secretly called her “Vicky Wonder Woman” and would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending her. Thank you, Vicky.

Vicky is amazing! She is non-judgmental and so professional. She is helping me turn my home into a decluttered, tranquil space. I really recommend her!!

Thank you so much, Vicky

Vicky recently assisted us in clearing items from a deceased estate. It was an urgent job and she was tasked with finding items which were like a needle in a haystack of clutter! We were absolutely blown away by Vicky’s positive attitude, competence, professionalism and efficiency as she sorted through very personal and confidential documents and items whilst we were not able to be there due to Covid restrictions on international travel. Vicky is an absolute gem and I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Kind regards

I came across Vicky Sim quite by accident, at a time when I was desperately trying to encourage my mother to start packing up the home she had been in for 23 years. Where my mother was disinclined to take encouragement and advice from her daughter, she found it easier to do so from this compassionate, encouraging, but firm, “stranger”. With my living in Cape Town, it was such a relief and a blessing to know there was someone professional, trustworthy and efficient in Durban to oversee the early phases of packing and identifying what was to be kept and what was to be disposed of. Her list of appropriate third parties to assist where required was also invaluable. She was scrupulous in keeping me updated during the weeks prior to my arrival. I do not know how we would have managed it all without her assistance and I highly recommend her service.

Thank you to the lovely Vicky Sim who helped me organise a ‘mountain’ full of stored stationery, books, papers, cds, that have been collected over the years. I don’t think I could have done the amount of clearing out and sorting, that we’ve done in 3 short hours, without her! Vicky’s help was just what I needed to get me motivated to do more clearing out. I can definitely recommend her organising skills. Thank you Vicky, you rock!

Vicky is simply amazing. She helped me clear out my late father’s house and was so efficient yet compassionate during a difficult time. I would absolutely recommend her.

I could never have done this on my own. So once again a big and special thank you. I am feeling a totally new person. Sat in the lounge this evening in total peace, no stress. Loving my new spaces but finding it hard to realise that I don’t have to rush around tidying up. … Need to settle & reclaim my time & myself.  I get a ‘little smug’ watching the ‘Neat’ programmes now…but not critical!

I enlisted Vicky’s help to assist my father in decluttering and organising the family home. Having long since flown the nest and moved abroad, it was a relief to learn about a professional organiser who has experience working with seniors who are looking to simplify and downsize. Vicky established a rapport of trust with my father and this enabled her to work with him as an engaged and motivated team player. Vicky handled the whole process with respect and sensitivity and with her guidance and regular contact and goal setting as well as updates on progress, the declutter job was diligently completed. What seemed daunting and overwhelming initially, became manageable and even enjoyable with Vicky’s help. Well done and thank you Vicky. This was a huge job! We are so grateful for your time, energy, kindness and expertise.

We would like to place on record our sincerest thanks to you for sorting and clearing out my mum’s home. We are so grateful to you for your professionalism, empathy, commitment and dedication to the task at hand. You did what you said you would and handled the job with immense sensitivity. Clearing out a home filled with memories and attachment is not an easy task! And all of it done with us in another city and only on the other end of a telephone!  For anyone considering a clean-up or clear out, you are clearly the person for the job and we would be delighted to refer your service.
With gratitude
