Hello,
I am expecting twins this summer and am currently looking for a reliable, full-time nanny with a mid-September start date, with some flexibility.
I also have a 2-year-old daughter who will remain in daycare, but will be around at the beginning and end of the day. We’re hoping to find someone who is dependable, experienced with newborns, comfortable caring for twins, can drive, and ready to take on a full-time role.
If you know of anyone who may be interested, I’d be so grateful if you could send them my way.
Thank you so much!

Hello Families!
My name is Gracie, and I’m currently looking for a wonderful family to work (full time/ share) with starting at the end of July or beginning of August.
A little about me: I’m originally from Brazil, 31 years old, and passionate about life, nature, and creating meaningful connections. I love exploring new places, meeting new people, and bringing positive energy into the families I work with.
I’m also very passionate about working with children and have over 7 years of childcare experience with strong references available upon request. I’m caring, responsible, patient, and truly enjoy helping children learn, grow, and feel supported in their daily routines.
I would love to connect and see if we could be a good fit for each other! Feel free to message me with any questions. 😊

Hi there, I’m moving to Winchester next week and looking for a new pediatrician and dentist for my kids. Any recommendations? Thanks!
I highly recommend our wonderful nanny Sabine, who will be available early March 2026 as our son will be transitioning to daycare. Sabine has been a cornerstone of our family for 4 years, and any family would be lucky to have her.
She is a true career nanny with initial daycare experience followed by more than 15 years of private nannying. She is a pro at balancing multiple children’s needs and successfully nannied a share for my daughter (6mo-2.2yrs, with a child the same age). We were lucky enough to have her again for a second share for my son (6mo-1.5yrs, with a child 6 months older).
Sabine effortlessly establishes routines and troubleshoots feeding and sleep transitions. She even potty trained my daughter shortly after her 2nd birthday. She is always on the floor playing with the kids, finding local community events, and keeping the kids active and social. We trust her completely; she is loving, patient and dedicated. Kids flock to her, and we’ve frequently had strangers comment on the visible bond she has with my son.
Sabine is a US citizen and fluent English speaker with her own car. While she has a special heart for babies, she is open to discussing other opportunities. She is ideally looking for full-time work (but is open to part-time), in commuting distance from Melrose via car or T (Winchester, Arlington, Somerville, Belmont, Melrose, Medford, Reading, Woburn, Wakefield, Charlestown, West End, Back Bay, Stoneham, Malden, or similar).
If you are interested, please message Sabine at 857-869-6849
