Temporary Governess






London Governess is a unique agency in that it only offers native English speaking governesses. In placing these British governesses abroad we apply strict standards to ensure that our clients’ children receive a proper UK education. 
 
A British governess’ duties include:
  • Educating children in their homes
  • Helping children to develop their social skills
  • Teaching proper etiquette and manners.
A qualified British governess possesses the following attributes:
  • A teaching background, higher education in childcare, and five years of childcare/teaching experience.
Our governesses bring a wealth of experience to placements and are particularly skilled at teaching, motivating children to progress academically, to acquire life skills and develop good manners. For children whose first language is not English our governesses will assist with mastering the language, as well helping the child to understand British cultural expectations and etiquette. 
 
I only need a governess for a short period. Can you still help me?

Reliable, trustworthy and highly qualified short-term governesses are available to meet the needs of your family. Our flexible service is designed to suit all situations, including emergency, travel, or holiday placements, whether at home or abroad. 
 
In addition to recognising the importance of education, we also understand the need for children to get on well with their governess. Therefore we only appoint candidates who are child focused, have plenty of energy, patience, and tolerance, and a passion for their work. Our friendly, skilled and safety-conscious governesses are available to meet the emotional and practical needs of your children, either working alongside you or whilst you are away from home. Depending upon your personal situation, the duties of a governess can include teaching, home-schooling, engaging children in educational play, and organising child-focused activities.

International services require a minimum of a two week placement, and rates can be negotiated to meet your requirements.
