About Me

Are you feeling overwhelmed by clutter, disorganized spaces, and lost items in your home? Would you feel relieved and excited to begin your organization journey today?

My name is Lindsay Skinner, and I want to help you create calm, organized and beautiful spaces which reduce stress and chaos in your home for your entire family, freeing you up to live life on your terms.

As a Montessori teacher, I specialize in home organization utilizing the Montessori methodology of a “prepared environment.”

While it may seem that my business is geared towards children, my system will translate to the entire household.

I will help you prepare spaces in your home which award all family members autonomy, independence, and accountability. When spaces are properly prepared, both children and adults can easily locate items, return them to their proper place, and be organized for all aspects of your busy day.

It has been a long and winding road to get here, but each experience I’ve had has prepared me to start The Honed Method.

Caring for children was my first passion. I began baby-sitting as soon as I was of age, and spent summers as a nanny in British Columbia during high school and London, England during university. Right after university, I began my career in fashion, but ultimately felt that teaching was my true calling.

So I went to teacher’s college, and then actually fell into Montessori as a happy accident. Throughout my time in people’s homes and classrooms, I’ve realized how important organization, structure, and routines are, and saw first hand what worked and what didn’t.

It wasn’t until I was living with my partner and his sons that I had my ultimate epiphany.

Organization for the home needs an individualized approach, and each family member may require a different method. That’s where the Honed Method was born. Hone in on each person’s learning style and personal preferences and prepare their space to match those needs.

I am here to help you on this journey. Contact me today, and let’s prepare your space together.
