Booked by 1 family in Acton, 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.
