An exciting opportunity exists to work with a Russian Family. They are looking for an experienced governess/nanny to look after their two sons aged 11 and 14.

The boys are full boarders at St Johns Beaumont School, Windsor and Dulwich College. The parents rent an apartment in Chelsea where their sons spend their weekends. The governess is needed for Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. S/he will pick up the boys on Fridays, look after them over the weekend and then take them back to their schools on Sunday evenings. On most occasions taxi collects the boys and then takes them back to schools.

The family is ideally looking for an ex-teacher or an applicant who is educated to degree level. S/he will talk to the boys about their academic achievements, what they have learnt during the week and how they feel about it. The Governess will then report to their tutors who will be tutoring the boys for 5-6 hours a day over each weekend. S/he will be friendly, caring and a good cook.

The package will include a competitive salary, a separate bedroom in the families flat and potentially a car to do the driving of the boys at the weekends. (Driving licence desirable but not compulsory)

Applicants must be willing to undergo child protection screening appropriate to the post, including checks with past employers and the Criminal Records Bureau.
