​A Home Away From Home for International Students​
Welcoming, Safe and Supportive Homes
During exeat weekends and holidays, when boarding schools are closed, students who are not returning home will need to stay with a host family. At My Guardians, we place our students only with host families we know personally and who have completed all required safeguarding and security checks. Your child's safety, comfort, and wellbeing are always our highest priority.
We take great care to match each student with a host family where they will feel at home, relaxed and treated as a valued member of the household. Host families are encouraged to include students in outings, activities and everyday family life, helping them feel settled and supported. Living with a host family is an excellent way for international students to experience British culture, traditions and daily life. It also provides a nurturing environment for practising conversational English and building confidence.
Where Our Host Families Are Located
We have a trusted network of caring host families across:
- KentÂ
- East and West Sussex
- Hampshire
- SurreyÂ
- London
​What Our Families Say

​'Feedback from our son on his stay with his host family last weekend was very positive. Please extend our appreciation to the host family for taking care of our son.' - Parent of a My Guardians' student.
Becoming a Host Family
Our host families welcome students to their homes during exeats weekends, half terms, holidays and occasional emergencies. They provide a secure, friendly environment and genuinely care about the well-being of the young people they host.
We are always looking for warm, responsible families interested in hosting students who attend boarding schools in Kent, Sussex, Surrey, Hampshire and London.
