Job description


Governess / Household Manager

Fairfax Station, VA (22039)

A professional family is seeking an exceptional full-time Governess / Household Manager to become a steady, nurturing presence for two wonderful girls during a deeply transitional season for their family. This role is ideal for a warm, capable professional who embodies the heart of a nurturing mother, values education, and desires to make a meaningful, long-term impact in children’s lives.


About the Family

  • Children: Two sweet girls ages 8 and 6
  • The family will soon be navigating the loss of their mother to cancer.
  • Father is a busy professional who travels frequently and is seeking a trusted partner in the home to provide consistency, emotional support, and guidance for his daughters.
  • The family shares Christian values and is looking for someone aligned with those principles.

Position Overview

This role blends governess-level childcare with household management, with a strong emphasis on:

  • Academic support and school engagement
  • Emotional nurturing and role modeling
  • Social and activity coordination
  • Creating a calm, loving, and well-organized home environment

This is not a typical nanny role—it is a Mary Poppins gold-standard position for someone who leads with heart, structure, and grace.

Schedule & Compensation

  • Full-Time
  • Hours:
  • Mornings (school preparation and household oversight)
  • Afternoons: 2:00 PM – 7:00 PM
  • Flexibility required for overnight stays when father is traveling
  • Live-in or Live-out options available
  • Pay: $25–$27 per hour (based on experience)

Key Responsibilities

Child-Focused Responsibilities

  • Serve as a loving, steady role model and emotional support for both girls
  • Emphasis on school success and academic enrichment
  • Assist with homework, school projects, and learning organization
  • Coordinate extracurricular activities, playdates, and transportation
  • Prepare nutritious meals and snacks for the children
  • Participate in school communication, “mom chats,” and school community involvement
  • Foster social skills, confidence, kindness, and emotional resilience

Household & Family Support

  • Manage children’s schedules, calendars, and activity logistics
  • Coordinate with school, tutors, and activity providers
  • Maintain organized routines and systems within the home
  • Support a peaceful, structured environment during father’s travel
  • Provide continuity, reassurance, and warmth during a time of change

Ideal Candidate

  • Naturally nurturing, calm, and emotionally attuned
  • Strong background in childcare, education, or household management
  • Values structure, routines, and academic excellence
  • Comfortable stepping into a maternal-style leadership role
  • Emotionally mature and compassionate
  • Shares Christian values
  • Reliable, discreet, and deeply committed to the well-being of the children
  • Able to form meaningful, long-term bonds with the family

This Role Is for Someone Who…

  • Feels called to support children through meaningful life transitions
  • Finds purpose in being a positive, guiding presence
  • Takes pride in helping children feel safe, supported, and capable
  • Understands that love, consistency, and education change lives
