The English Literature tutor London Governess introduced prepared our son thoroughly for his A-Level exams. Over time he became not just a tutor but a mentor and role model.

Vetted Governess Candidates
London Families Placed
Work with an experienced London nanny who manages your child's daily care, comfort and routine throughout busy family weeks.
All candidates undergo rigorous screening: enhanced DBS checks, right-to-work verification, reference checks from past families, childcare qualification review, practical skills assessment and in-depth interviews. We prioritise experienced professionals with proven backgrounds in private family childcare, live-in care and high-profile household environments for complete peace of mind.
We support babies, toddlers, primary school children and older children throughout daily routines, after-school hours and busy family schedules. Our London nannies assist with routines, meals, naps, play, supervision, school runs, homework and daily activities, making them ideal for families who need reliable childcare close to home.
It starts with a confidential consultation by phone or video to understand your household, hours, children's ages, routines and care preferences. We then present carefully matched London nanny profiles. You interview shortlisted candidates and we handle contracts, trial periods if requested and ongoing support. Most families secure a placement within 1-2 weeks.
We offer transparent, competitive placement fees based on the role, hours and length of contract. There are no hidden costs; families pay a one-time introduction fee upon successful placement. Nanny rates, working hours and live-in requirements are discussed clearly before confirmation.
Discretion is paramount for our high-profile clients. All consultations, household details and candidate information are handled confidentially under strict GDPR compliance. We never share family information without explicit consent and our website/forms use secure encryption.
Absolutely, many of our nannies are experienced with live-in placements, flexible schedules, larger households, multiple children, newborn care and extended residential arrangements. We frequently match families across London, the Home Counties, Surrey and other surrounding areas while maintaining high private childcare standards.
We are able to source and deliver a suitable candidate within 1 to 2 days.
Receive carefully selected candidates suited to your children, your household and your family's everyday lifestyle.
