Your home, quietly taken care of.

Personal, hands-on home management for busy homeowners and second-home owners. From household maintenance and trusted vendors to regular property visits, I handle the details — with design and renovation support available when you need it.

You don't need a renovation or a decorating project to work with me. Whether you live in your home year-round or visit seasonally, I coordinate the people, appointments and everyday details that keep it running smoothly — so you can simply enjoy it.

— AnnMarie Nixon, Founder

Residential Home Management

Practical, personal support for the everyday responsibilities of owning a home. I coordinate the details, follow up with service providers and help keep things running smoothly — whether you are home or away.

  • Scheduling, meeting and following up with cleaners, tradespeople and other service providers
  • Managing home-related appointments, deliveries and household errands
  • Preparing primary and second homes for arrivals, departures and seasonal changes
  • Regular property walk-throughs, maintenance reminders and updates while you travel

Renovation Oversight

When a home project comes up, I help coordinate contractors, site visits, decisions and updates so you can stay informed without managing every detail yourself.

03

Interior Design

Optional decorating and design support, from refreshing a room to selecting furnishings, finishes and the details that make a space feel like home.

04

Home Organizing

Drawing on 20 years of organizing experience, I create practical systems for closets, kitchens, pantries, moves and everyday living.

How I can help

Home management that fits the way you live.

You can hire me for ongoing home management even if you have no plans to redecorate or renovate. We start with what your home actually needs.

Ongoing Home Management

Regular attention to the household details that are easy to overlook when life gets busy.

  • Regular property visits and maintenance coordination
  • Seasonal preparation and home arrivals
  • Trusted vendor and household scheduling

Personalized Home Stewardship

Hands-on support for homeowners who would like one familiar person to coordinate more of the moving parts.

  • Household operations and logistics
  • Vendor and appointment oversight
  • Personalized home and lifestyle assistance

Projects & Special Services

Additional help when a project or seasonal need arises — never a requirement for ongoing service.

  • Renovation coordination and project oversight
  • Interior design and furnishing support
  • One-time and seasonal property needs

Let's create the right plan for your home.

Whether you need regular household oversight, someone to coordinate service appointments, or occasional help with a special project, we'll talk about your priorities. I'll recommend a personalized plan based on the support you actually want.

Renovations, handled

Projects run on schedule, without you standing over them.

Renovations are where homes and patience are tested. I bring order to the process: vetting trades, coordinating schedules, checking the work, and keeping you informed with clear updates — so you make the decisions that matter and leave the follow-through to me.

Meet the founder

AnnMarie Nixon

I founded Back Bay Home Management with a simple philosophy: every home deserves thoughtful attention, exceptional care, and someone you can truly trust.

My work began more than 20 years ago in professional home organizing, helping families create functional, welcoming spaces. I also spent 17 years working closely with one family, building the kind of lasting trust that comes from understanding a household and the people who live in it.

Over approximately the past three years, my work has grown into private home management. Today, I coordinate trusted vendors, oversee household maintenance, help care for second homes and manage the details homeowners would rather not handle themselves.

I also offer interior decorating, organizing and renovation coordination when a home needs something more. But you never need a design project to work with me. I believe the best client relationships are built on trust, discretion and personal attention.

Your sanctuary, my priority.

Now welcoming new clients.
