We place governess-calibre nannies into households that understand the difference between childcare and childhood architecture. By introduction only.
The pre-1900 household understood that who raises your children is as important as who builds your home or feeds your table. A governess was not a convenience — she was architecture for childhood.
We look first at who she is — her steadiness, her warmth, her instinctive understanding of boundaries and belonging. Qualifications confirm what character has already told us.
Our nannies understand that childhood shaped by tradition — real meals, outdoor time, manners learned young, stories before sleep — produces adults of depth and grace.
She works alongside your estate chef, understands your household rhythms, and integrates seamlessly into your family's culture — not as staff, but as a trusted presence.
We weren't looking for someone to watch our children. We were looking for someone who would help shape them. The Family Nanny understood the difference from the first conversation.
We begin with a private conversation about your household, your children, and the culture you're building at home. No forms to fill — this is a relationship, and it starts here.
We present two or three candidates — never a directory. Each has been personally met, assessed, and selected specifically for your family's profile.
A structured trial period with full support. We stay close during the first weeks to ensure the fit is right for everyone in the household.
Our relationship doesn't end at placement. We remain your trusted counsel for household staffing as your family grows and your needs evolve.
Our families understand that how their children spend their early years matters deeply. They aren't looking for convenience — they're looking for the right person, placed thoughtfully.
Every placement begins with a private inquiry. Share a little about your household and we'll be in touch within two business days to arrange a conversation.
All inquiries are confidential. We respond personally — no automated replies.
