Looking for a professional governess?

 

A 24around governess is not your average nanny. She is an educated, skilled professional who combines structure, educational guidance, and care with discretion and emotional intelligence. She supports the family dynamic, especially in busy, international, or high-profile households — by offering stability and personalized attention.

Whether it’s managing daily routines, tutoring, or teaching social etiquette, our governesses know exactly how to elevate and support the upbringing of children in modern families.

What does a governess do?

A governess is not a babysitter or housekeeper, she is a private educator and caregiver. Responsibilities may include:

  • Creating structure in the daily routine
  • Supporting academic and language development
  • Teaching manners and social etiquette
  • Providing tutoring and homework assistance
  • Traveling with the family (domestic/international)
  • Coordinating with schools, tutors, or therapists

Our governesses work with families who value discretion, consistency, and a high level of personalized care.
Typically:

  • Entrepreneurs or high-demand professionals
  • Families with multiple children
  • Parents with specific educational philosophies
