Hi! I’m Cristina…

Smiling woman in green dress standing at doorway, holding the door handle. This is Cristina Hostetter, a professional organizer and owner of The Simplified Home.

…and I’m a lifelong organizer and owner of The Simplified Home. I spent my childhood organizing my dollhouse, my teen years organizing my school binders and projects and assuming the role of “secretary” in every school club I could belong to, and the first part of my adult years enjoying jobs that required very high levels of organization and management. I now bring that same love into clients homes all across our area!

A graduate of Spring-Ford, I hold Bachelor & Masters’ Degrees in Education from Eastern & Cabrini Universities and spent almost ten years teaching in the Boyertown School District. I then transitioned to full-time mom life to raise our young children. As our kiddos grew, I began to explore how my love for organization could become a something more than just a hobby. Ten (plus!) years later, The Simplified Home has helped clients all over Southeastern PA find peace and contentment in their homes.

Outside of work, our family loves being outdoors and my husband and I proudly spend many of our weekends supporting our teenagers in the Owen J. Roberts Marching Band and Indoor Percussion Ensemble.

I find so much joy in simplifying and organizing clients' physical spaces so that it creates inward calm. I’ll help you remove the clutter, bring order to your home, and establish easy-to-maintain organizational solutions to clear space for what truly matters to you!

Hi, I’m Stacy! I thoroughly enjoy making spaces look clean, neat, and organized. Through my own life changes and moves, I have perfected the art of downsizing and love to make spaces beautifully practical. The desire to have an organized and functional aesthetic in my life has continued to increase as I have become older.

I feel fortunate to be helping others accomplish their organizational goals and am looking forward to delivering a beautiful, organized, and life-changing result in your home.

Along with organizing and making the flow of life practical, I enjoy baking, spending time outside, traveling, and reading. I like to keep busy and love spending time with my husband, our three children, and our four (yes, four) dogs! We are so thrilled to help bring you a sense of peace, practicality, functionality, and beauty into your home.

Hi, I’m Heidi! I have been passionate about organizing spaces for as long as I can remember. I am a mom of two school-aged children who constantly bring a lot of extra items into our home on a weekly basis. I understand how overwhelming clutter can be and I am committed to building personalized, sustainable solutions that fit anyone’s lifestyle.

I believe that maintaining a home organizational system tailored to your needs can be lifechanging. I look forward to working together to maximize any space – big or small – so it can reach its full potential in your home.

Outside of work, I volunteer at my children’s elementary school PTO - coordinating fundraisers and events throughout the year. In my spare time, I also enjoy hiking with my golden retriever, running with friends, cooking, and planning travel adventures with my family.

Maryalice

Hi, I'm Maryalice!  I spent over 20 years in the corporate world working in accounting and human resources. When my youngest graduated from college, I decided to make a career change. I realized that the things I liked most about my career was being able to help people understand things more clearly and streamlining workflows to make them more efficient and organized. Making the switch to do this on a more personal level was an easy one.

I enjoy the process of going through years of accumulated things, sorting them out, and organizing them in a way that works for everyone today. Coming home from a long day at work and walking into an organized kitchen, family room, or home office really helps reduce the stress of everyday life.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family, reading and volunteering at a local food bank.
