GOVERNESS

The Role of a Governess

Hiring a governess can greatly benefit your children’s overall well-being, development, safety, and education. A governess focuses on teaching manners and social skills and sharing valuable experience and knowledge to help children thrive academically and intellectually in the long term.

Qualified governesses typically hold a childcare diploma or certificate and may also have a teaching degree, alongside extensive experience as nannies, tutors, or teachers.

By employing a governess, parents can set specific educational goals for their children, such as preparing for entrance exams, providing exam support, and ensuring diligent homework supervision.

Depending on your preference, the governess can either live in your home or be present during the day, offering flexible options to meet your needs.

Governess Duties
  • Daily Routine Implementation.
  • Providing hygiene care and assistance during daily activities such as dressing and meals.
  • Teaching manners and social etiquette based on parents’ instructions.
  • Reinforcing socialization skills and fostering autonomy.
  • Sharing skills and knowledge in areas such as music, culture, and sports.
  • Teaching foreign languages.
  • Assisting with homework and communicating with school teachers.
  • Collaborating with tutors and the family nanny to track objectives, progress, and development.
  • Attend to household errands relating to the children.
  • Accompany your children on family holidays or travel alone with them.
Education is the value

What is the difference between a Nanny and a Governess ?

Nurturing nannies provide engaging games and activities, foster emotional development, and instill hygiene standards, all while managing domestic tasks such as tidying up the child’s bedroom and doing their laundry.

In contrast, governesses uphold comprehensive responsibilities for children’s education and daily organization.
