The Governess
The Time Lord (Time Lady), known as "The Governess," left Galifrey with much less drama than the Doctor did. In fact, she doesn't even possess her own TARDIS, but she does have other means of transportation, usually by an umbrella blown in by the East Wind. She has also been to planets in the Pleiades cluster.
She has a carpet bag that is bigger on the inside and she speak to all sorts of creatures. Her Time Lord science often appears to be magic and she has no desire to educate the ignorant on the differences.
She first appeared on Earth during the early Victorian Age, and her mission was to find exceptional children who needed a little extra guidance. She has used many different names, including "Mary Poppins," "Nanny McPhee," and even just "the Nanny," but she is always known as the Governess.
She tries to be subtle when she can, but her attitude is not that of a human. She is a Time Lord and knows she is superior to all those around her. So she can be imperious, even arrogant, at times—okay, most times—but she always tries to do what is best for the children in her care.
She also only stays for a short time, only while needed. Often leaving when "the wind changes" or some other sign that it is time to go.
She has an agreement with other Time Lords to generally stay out of each other's way. It is uncertain if she survived the Time War, she was never seen during the battles, but she has also not been seen since.

Personal Goal
To protect the Children
The Time Lord known as "The Governess" (to some, Mary Poppins or even "The Nanny") fled Gallifrey long before the Time War with one goal in mind: To protect those who could protect or help themselves. She has been known to have encountered the Time Lord, known as The Doctor, at least once.
She has several family members she will mention, but these are all adopted and are worldwide.
ETA: I should have saved this for the 23rd, Doctor Who's anniversary.
