From royal megayachts to private households: Former nanny launches elite agency for families worldwide

After working as a private nanny for high-profile and royal families, from palaces to luxury megayachts, Alice Romero Drever knows first-hand what exceptional childcare looks like — and how life-changing it can be for both families and nannies. That personal journey is now the foundation of her new agency, Nanny & Governess .

“I still remember working on a megayacht in my first role with a royal family,” says Alice. “I organised swimming, cupcake decorating, treasure hunts & it was one of the best experiences in my life.”

Drawing on that experience, Alice has launched Nanny & Governess, a specialist agency placing elite nannies, governesses, and private educators in some of the world’s most discerning households. From London to Riyadh, clients are matched with highly experienced childcare professionals who are as nurturing as they are knowledgeable.

The agency offers a range of services including live-in, rota, travelling, and multilingual placements, and is quickly becoming known for its highly personal, relationship-based approach. “I’ve been a nanny, teacher and governess— I know what families need and want,” Alice explains.

“And I love to interview nannies and find the right one for each role, I have to understand exactly what families are looking for.”

Nanny & Governess is also developing an online academy to help people around the world learn and get into the world of VIP Nannies.

With an emphasis on trust, discretion, and long-term compatibility, the agency serves families in the UK, USA, the Gulf, and beyond — helping children thrive, one extraordinary nanny at a time.
