Welcome to Paperwork In Paradise
Hi there! I’m so glad you found your way to my little corner of the internet. Let me introduce myself – I’m a single mom living in the beautiful Florida Keys, and I’m here to share something that’s become both my passion and my lifeline: mobile notary services.
In the beginning...
Not so long ago, I was working as an office assistant, juggling permits and doing my best to balance work with raising my son Reef. Like many single parents, I was always looking for ways to create more financial stability for our family. That’s when I discovered the world of notarization – and more importantly, just how much people in our community needed these services at times that worked for their schedules, not just business hours.
What started as a side hustle quickly became something much more meaningful. I became a mobile notary, offering after-hours and weekend services throughout the Keys. But here’s what I discovered along the way: most people have no idea when they actually need a notary until they’re in a situation where they desperately need one right now.
That’s exactly why I started this blog.
Over the past few years, I’ve been called to help families in situations that would surprise you. I’ve notarized documents at hospital bedsides, helped close real estate deals that were hours away from falling through, and assisted people with urgent legal paperwork that couldn’t wait until Monday morning.
I’ve learned that notarization isn’t just about stamps and signatures – it’s about being there when life happens. When your elderly parent needs power of attorney documents signed on a Sunday. When you just won a boat in a sports bet and you need the bill of sale notarized before the wives find out. When you’re refinancing your home and the lender needs documents notarized before their deadline. When your daughter wants to get matching tattoos and you need a minor consent form. Sometimes the bank and the UPS store are too busy or aren’t there.
In the coming weeks, I’ll be sharing insights inspired by real events about the times when having access to a notary made all the difference. You’ll learn about situations you might never have considered, documents you didn’t know needed notarization, and why having a reliable mobile notary in your contacts can be a real game-changer.
Living and Working in Paradise
There’s something special about providing this service in the Florida Keys. Our island lifestyle means we do things a little differently here. We understand that time moves at its own pace and that emergencies don’t follow business hours.
Whether you’re a year-round resident, a seasonal visitor, or someone who found their forever home in the Keys, I’m here to make sure you never have to stress about finding notary services when you need them most. If you ever wished you had a friend that had a notary stamp to come help you, now you do.
What’s Coming Up
In future posts, I’ll share my insights about different situations I've come across and some hopefully helpful information I've learned from them.
Thanks for joining me on this journey. Whether you’re here because you need notary services or you’re just curious about the adventures of a single mom building a business in the Keys, I’m thrilled to have you along for the ride.
