personal assistant services

Personal assistants aren’t just for celebrities or CEOs. Are you overwhelmed with your to-do list? You can call us in on an as-needed basis to support you. We can clear away the minutiae so that you can focus on what truly matters to you. Overwhelm doesn’t have to rule your life. The same skills we use in our physical organizing work come into play here: we break down big, looming projects and deadlines into manageable steps, and then execute on them one by one.

We offer a wide range of support tailored to your needs in this realm.

For example:

  • filing health insurance claims

  • running errands

  • answering emails

  • calendar and time management support

  • returning online orders

  • researching and booking trips at a good price

  • researching, buying, and wrapping gifts

  • organizing your calendar or to-do list

  • planning parties or holiday events

Cornelia, the personal assistant who runs Acorn & Oak Organizing, sits at a wooden table next to a window, writing on a piece of paper. There is a magenta notebook next to her.

“Cornelia came into my life at the recommendation of a friend. I have ADHD and struggle with executive dysfunction, and was drowning in never-ending errands and to-do lists. When I first met Cornelia she looked over my to-do list, asked me some questions, and then just jumped right in. Anything she didn’t know how to do she was willing to put the time into researching. In a few days we had crossed more lines off my to-do list than I’d be able to accomplish on my own in weeks.”

“For years I have missed deadlines to file for health insurance reimbursements, it’s just one of those tasks I can’t get myself to do. I asked Cornelia to help me with this, and not only did she get me reimbursed for everything, she caught several discrepancies where the insurance company had underpaid me and corrected them. She had the patience and determination to sit through terrible customer service hotline calls that would have had me giving up 10 minutes in. I always tell her she’s paid for herself several times over! I call her about once a month now for maintenance when my paperwork starts to pile up. She is prompt and professional!”
