Booked by 3 families in Sudbury, MA

Hi there! My name is Grace, and I specialize in infant care, though I truly enjoy working with children at every stage of development. I’m attentive to the unique needs of babies, children, and their families, and I prioritize building strong relationships through open, honest communication. I create a nurturing environment where children feel safe, supported, and encouraged to explore and grow. I’m also happy to assist with errands, light meal prep, house-sitting, and caring for pets and plants. I take pride in being reliable, warm, and supportive, and I value becoming a trusted, consistent presence in a family’s daily routine. I’d love to connect and learn more about your family!

“I can’t recommend Grace enough! She was our nanny for my daughter and another child for 3 years. She kept the kids busy with walks, activities and outings by car or public transit. My daughter still talks about her days with Grace fondly! From infancy through toddlerhood, Grace was a joy to have in our home, cherished our kids as if they were her own, and truly enjoyed her time with them. Any family will be lucky to have Grace!”

Booked by 1 family in Sudbury, MA

As a nanny with over 5-10+ years of experience, I have had the privilege of working with several amazing families. One memorable experience was with the Jones family, where I cared for their two children, aged 10 months and 6, for five years. My responsibilities included creating engaging activities, preparing nutritious meals, and ensuring their safety and well-being. I developed a strong bond with the children and became an integral part of their daily routine. I also assisted with homework, transportation to extracurricular activities, and organized playdates. I maintained open communication with the parents, providing regular updates on the children's progress and addressing any concerns promptly. Additionally, I utilized my creativity to plan educational and fun outings, fostering their curiosity and love for learning. My time with the Jones family was incredibly rewarding, as I witnessed the children grow and thrive under my care.

“Cinthian is thoughtful, kind, and the kids really enjoyed playing with her, they didn't want her to leave.”
