Lauren is trustworthy, extremely thorough, with a high attention to detail every time.
My name is Lauren Gandurski, and I am the owner and sole cleaner for Afterglow Cleaning Company LLC.
I spent my twenties here in Seattle, but in the last decade I have moved throughout the US, doing everything from working on a Christmas Tree farm, cleaning Airbnbs, managing shipping at a chocolate factory, to most recently working as the business manager of a small public school district in rural Montana.
I believe in a holistic view when it comes to addressing mental wellness. I have seen firsthand the way mental health can manifest in an individual's space and surroundings, and how this can build a sense of isolation and anxiety. Beyond that, I have figured out in the last few years how to become less overwhelmed by my own things and the condition of my space, as someone with ADHD and CPTSD for whom no organizational methods ever stuck.
I was 18 when I did my first compassionate clean, and over the years I have found myself on the receiving and giving end of this type of assistance, especially in the tight knit small town I just left. I decided I wanted to bring this spirit of community care with me to Seattle by combining my cleaning and personal mental health experience and training by offering this service.
I am happy to provide local work and personal references on request.
Afterglow exists to create an option for people who need a more personalized approach that is guaranteed to be attuned to their needs without judgment or pressure.
My specialty is deep cleaning, especially personalized deep cleans and organizing for people who have neurodivergent brains - however differently they work.
In recent years I had a lot of time to figure out how to manage my own life with ADHD, CPTSD, and a chronic pain condition.
I had to create my own blueprint for how to organize and build a routine that works with how my brain reasons and is motivated. I have a knack for seeing strengths and how others function from many years working as a manager.
Now I would like to share the relief of deciding to stop trying to fit into established solutions, and thinking outside the box to work with your brain- not against it, without shame or judgment.
