What types of private household staff can Eden Private Staff recruit?
Updated
Eden Private Staff recruits across the full range of private household, estate and security roles — from nannies and maternity nurses to estate managers, private PAs, chauffeurs and close protection staff. According to the agency's own description, it places "skilled, trained and experienced staff to our clients anywhere in the world," and works with both private households and businesses. It also states it can accommodate part-time, temporary or full-time needs, so the list below is about role type rather than contract length.
Childcare and education roles
These are the roles most closely tied to the agency's stated specialism in "Nanny, Maternity & All Private Household Staff Recruitment":
- Maternity nurses — listed as a headline category on the site.
- Nannies — also a headline category.
- Nanny housekeepers — named in the site's own description of the jobs it covers.
- Tutors — included in the agency's list of roles it sources.
Household and estate roles
The agency describes itself as leading "international household, estate and security staff recruitment," and names the following positions:
- House Managers
- Housekeepers
- Household couples (a headline category, and listed as "Couples")
- Chefs / Cooks
- Butlers
- Estate Managers
- Gardeners and Grounds Staff
Administrative and travel roles
- Personal Assistant (PA) and Private PA — listed as a headline category.
- Executive PA — named in the site's description of domestic staff jobs.
- Private chauffeurs / Chauffeurs / Drivers — "private chauffeurs" is a headline category.
- Pilots — included in the agency's list of roles it sources.
Security and maintenance roles
- Security / Close Protection staff
- Maintenance Staff
The agency notes its staff are "discreet and well trained," which is relevant if you are hiring for roles where confidentiality or formal household protocol matters.
How to judge whether it fits your need
| If you need… | Relevant Eden Private Staff categories |
|---|---|

Two practical points from the site: the agency says it operates "on a worldwide platform," so location is not limited to the UK despite its description mentioning London roles; and it states it handles part-time, temporary and full-time placements. The site also notes it is "currently recruiting" and directs visitors to a vacancies page — useful if you are a candidate rather than a client. The agency says it has been established for over 25 years and offers advice on "your unique requirements," so if your role is not on the list above, it is worth asking directly rather than assuming it is out of scope.
