Educated Households is a higher-tier household staff agency, based in London, placing élite educated private staff with VIP & UHNW families in London, the Middle East and worldwide: www.educated-households.co.uk.







On behalf of our international Clients based out on the prestigious Palm Jumeirah in Dubai, we are urgently seeking two exceptionally-experienced live-in Tagalog-speaking Housekeepers with experience in childcare, cooking & laundry.







This is a small semi-formal household, imminently relocating from London over to Dubai, with two boys aged 11 & 9 years old who will start school in Dubai by the end of August 2025.







The boys are adorable: kind, active and adventurous. The languages spoken at home are English, Russian & French. 







As things stand, the family has a PA & two rotational nannies. The Principals are likely to also work with a couple of housekeepers, a chef, a driver, a head of security/driver and a butler. More staff may join in at a later stage. The chef will cater for the family, the guests and the staff’s meals in residence.







The Clients have had loyal staff for years who have worked with the family for 10 or 20 years, hence the Principals wish any additions to the team to work seamlessly. The Principals tremendously value loyalty, integrity and valuable work ethics. 







The two expertise-driven Housekeepers that we are seeking for our Clients will have shared charge or sole charge of the children. The Housekeepers will directly report to the Principal(s) and to any representatives handpicked by the Principals. The Housekeepers must be able to work both independently & collaboratively, wholeheartedly mucking in when required, in the daily running of the household as well as attending to guests when events are held in residence or off site as & when instructed by the family. 







The Housekeepers should work on a binomial basis in this spacious residence: one Housekeeper should be able to assist with cooking, breakfasts, meals and requests for the children. The other Housekeeper could then specialise in extended laundry.

The family is after polite, hardworking & flexible Housekeepers endowed with a can-do attitude and an attention to detail. In this multi-faceted pivotal role, the Housekeepers will deliver exceptional service, will routinely inspect the home to ensure that it remains in pristine condition.







It shall be expected that the sought Housekeepers have had experience ideally leveraged in high-end homes or high-end hospitality.







Adhering to confidentiality is non-negotiable in this role as the Principals do value their privacy.
