Healthy Home Consults

Maia offers a range of consulting options, which can be done virtually or in person if you live in the New York City region.

Pricing: Since each home and each family is different, each consult is, too. Consulting pricing is quoted along with a proposal for services after a complimentary 20-minute phone session with Maia. Email maia@gimmethegoodstuff.org to set up your appointment.

Examples of Maia’s programs include the following:

Just the Basics
Do you feel totally overwhelmed by the idea of detoxing your home? Don’t know where to start, or what should be your top priority? Maia will help you regain sanity and peace of mind, working within your budget and timeframe to focus on the most important areas of cleaning up your living environment. You’ll receive personalized shopping lists that make getting the Good Stuff a cinch, and learn easy-to-implement strategies for cleaning up the air in your home.

Prenatal Platinum Program
Are you pregnant or intending to be soon? It’s a great time to learn how to clean up your own routines and make your nursery a safe place to welcome your new baby. Without freaking you out, Maia will help you get only the good stuff for your baby, and make sure that your body is a safe place for him to camp out for nine months. Maia’s most recent celebrity client, Jordana Brewster, says, “I would recommend Maia’s services to anyone looking to demystify the process of registering for a baby shower or designing a beautiful nursery without exposing your baby to scary chemicals.”

Interior Design Services
Maia can work with your interior designer, or bring her own—she often works with the fabulously talented Chiara de Rege to design chic and nontoxic living spacing in the New York metro region.

Praise for Gimme the Good Stuff

As a first time mom, I wanted to provide the safest environment for Julian. Maia guided me through every decision with patience and humor, and made the process of creating a nontoxic home simple and stress-free. Maia is a wealth of knowledge, was always accessible to answer my questions, and searched high and low to find the perfect products for Julian’s nursery. Everyone has an opinion about what you “need” for a new baby, and Maia gave me invaluable peace of mind when making my selections. I would recommend Maia’s services to anyone looking to demystify the process of registering for a baby shower or designing a beautiful nursery without exposing your baby to scary chemicals.

I need your help! We at first assumed Wolfie had swimmer's ear from days in a friend’s pool, but the pediatrician said she saw the infection in his middle ear, meaning simple drops wouldn't work. Per her instructions, we waited 48 hours to see the direction the pain was going--and I used garlic drops, heated an onion and held it to his ear, cleaned up his diet, and so on. (Thank you guys for the many helpful recommendations, by the way.)
Unfortunately, he was clearly in worsening rather than lessening pain after two days, so we filled the amoxicillin prescription😩. I now need your collective wisdom on what to be feeding him to strengthen his immune system and gut microbiome, beyond kefir and probiotics. Also—how amazing are the big guns 💊 when you need them? I feel grateful for modern medicine. 🙏🏻
