Full-time Native English-speaking Governess required for G4 & G9, located in Chelsea, London. Salary £65,000 – £75,000 gross per annum. Live-out. Start ASAP.
A UHNW international family based in Chelsea is seeking a highly experienced, qualified, and engaging Governess to support the care and academic development of their two daughters aged 4 and 9. The family is looking for a professional candidate who can provide structured academic guidance while creating a stimulating and positive learning environment. This position is available on either a temporary or permanent basis and requires international travel during school holidays.
As a Governess, you will play an important role in supporting the children’s academic progress across core subjects, with a particular focus on Maths. You will assist with homework, reinforce classroom learning, and help build strong study habits while encouraging curiosity and confidence in their learning. You will plan and deliver engaging, creative, and age-appropriate educational activities and organise stimulating after-school schedules that balance learning, creativity, and play.
In addition to academic support, you will assist with the children’s daily routines including after-school care and the evening routine. You will liaise with the parents regarding the children’s academic progress and development and work closely with the family to ensure a consistent and supportive approach to learning. The family travels internationally during school holidays and you will be required to travel with them during these periods.
The ideal candidate will be a native English speaker (or native-level) with a strong academic background and confidence teaching Maths at primary level. Previous experience working as a Governess or within educational childcare roles is essential, and experience working with UHNW families is highly desirable. The candidate will be creative, organised, energetic, and proactive in planning activities, while maintaining a warm, professional, and discreet manner within a private household environment.
The working schedule is Monday to Friday from 3:30 pm – 8:00 pm, with flexibility required during school holidays and periods of travel.
