WHO I WORK WITH

I support busy professionals, small businesses and organisations who need reliable help behind the scenes.

 

My clients are often:

 

  • business owners juggling multiple responsibilities

  • organisations needing dependable admin support

  • brands needing help with outreach or invitations

  • busy professionals who simply need an extra pair of hands

 

Whether you need occasional help or ongoing support, having someone organised and reliable can make a big difference.

WHY WORK WITH ME

I understand how quickly to-do lists can grow, especially when you’re balancing work, family and everyday responsibilities.

 

My aim is to provide friendly support when you need it, helping with the tasks that often get pushed aside.

 

Clients value having someone who is:​

​

  • organised and dependable

  • approachable and easy to work with

  • able to quietly take care of the details

  • flexible depending on their needs

 

Sometimes it’s simply about having someone reliable who can take a few things off your plate.

Hi I used Clare to set up the website for my new company renegade electrical she made it bespoke for me and my business and did all the work I did not want to do I would highly recommend her she's fantastic thank you clare.

Ashley Merritt - Renegade Electrical

Clare helped me to create a price list for my beauty business. I was struggling for ideas so Clare drafted up some designs and sent them over to me. She kept tweaking them until we were both happy with the final price list. Clare also suggested to keep treatment information separate to the price list so it looked less cluttered. Fab idea and I can send relevant information when required. Very professional and thorough. Would definitely recommend!

Sophia Sozos - Sophia's Beauty at Home Dukinfield
