Regal can provide you with the very best…

Butlers / Administrators
A Butler, sometimes known as a Major D’omo or House Manager, carries out the fine details
of running a single household. Typical responsibilities include supervising household staff,
valeting, ordering household supplies, setting, and serving at a formal table, caring for silver,
china and crystal, and overseeing dinner parties and other events. We can supply fully
experienced Butlers, many of whom have been professionally trained for both permanent and
temporary positions in private households as well as corporate positions.

Caretakers
A Caretaker is responsible for the outside and inside maintenance of the home. Duties
typically include gardening, painting, carpentry, plumbing, scheduling annual repairs, and
overseeing any contractors.

Chauffeurs
Many of our Chauffeurs have received their training from the police or during their
military service.  Their responsibilities include driving family members to professional
and social appointments.  They may also be responsible for the maintenance, minor repair,
detailing and the overall care of automobiles. In many cases, our chauffeurs are multi-faceted,
such as Chauffeur/Body Guard, Chauffeur/Handyman, Driver/Handyman, & Driver/Gardner.

Cooks and Chefs
There are many levels of cooks from basic family cook to the school of trained gourmet Chef. 
Our professional Chefs have all been trained at one of the fine culinary schools in the USA,
Europe or the Far East.  Whatever your tastes, they can provide the right flavor for your home
or company.

For Private Households, Regal can provide you with the very best:
Chefs, Family Cooks, Top Level Cooks, Party Cooks, Cook/Housekeepers.

For Companies and Other Organizations: Head Cook/Chef, Cook/Chef, and Sous Chef.

Seasonal commitments, family or corporate entertaining can place burdens on your existing
facilities, and we can provide additional staff or temporary assistance.

We can also provide Chefs or "Super Cooks" to accommodate your special events, such as:
Yacht/Boat Parties, Luncheons, Birthday Parties, Dinners, Villa/Skiing Holidays, Cocktail Parties,
Buffets and Hunting Trips.

Couples
Couples can completely manage your home or estate, from being totally hands-on to
supervising other staff, and overseeing the work of outside vendors. If a couple is what you
require, Regal has experience with couples with many skills. There are many combinations of
skills and experience available such as: Butler & Cook, Gardener & Laundress, Handyman &
Housekeeper, Valet & Chef, Chauffeur & Housekeeper, Houseman & Nanny.

Estate Managers
Chiefly an administrator with many responsibilities, the Estate Manager oversees the staff
and services of one or more homes and may include the selection and supervising of all
contractors, caretakers and gardeners, care of automobiles, and supervision of household
accounts.

Housekeepers
A job description for this position will vary depending on the needs of the family. The
Housekeeper is in charge of running the home, which may include overseeing other staff,
hands-on cleaning, laundry, dusting, silver polishing, vacuuming and running errands.
Other duties can include grocery shopping, greeting guests and vendors. Meal preparation
and/or childcare duties may also be required. If you are looking for a Housekeeper, Regal
has the best candidates for you.

Housemen

A Houseman, more of a "hands-on" person, is usually responsible  for the heavy housework,

such as cleaning the hardwood and marble floors, vacuuming and polishing silver and brass

and minor repairs.  The responsibilities vary greatly depending on the household's

requirements.  In a home where there is only a houseman, he does what a housekeeper

would be required to do.

Major Domos

The Major Domo assumes many of the same responsibilities belonging to that of a

House/Estate Manager.  However, the Major Domo is usually the head of staff, in charge of

one residence.

Nannies

Our nannies meet a wide range of criteria, all of whom have at least three current years of

work experience in this field.  Many of our nannies have received professional training in

fields relating to the care and upbringing of babies and young children.

Our experienced nannies are child-care experts, ready to provide one-on-one attention

for your children.  They can organize and coordinate the children's activities, prepare their

meals and keep their rooms and play areas clean.  Although a nanny's primary responsibility

is child care, some nannies may be asked to include housekeeping, grocery shopping and

other errands as part of their regimen.

Many of the nannies Regal has placed have become cherished friends and are treated as

family members and are willing to travel abroad with their families.  If you are looking for a

Nanny, Regal can provide you with the very best Residential Nannies, Baby Nurses and Daily

Nannies.

Personal Assistants

A Personal or Executive Assistant will be your "right-hand" person for your office or home

and can manage your travel plans, your schedule and set up appointments.  Other

responsibilities may include keeping track of the family agenda and arranging for

reservations of various events.
