I've used Didier Bobeau a few times in the past (although last time was 2011 ish) and he was great. Decent knowledge of the Chamonix valley and surrounding area.

his English was v good from what I remember. He's definitely led "all English" ski/guiding groups before.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

if that fails then I've also used Yves Aucreux before, 0033(0) 680958457, he was also v good. Don't have his email but his wife's is chloe@chamonix.com (don't ask why I have that...think he told me she can arrange accommodation/hotels or something similar). So she could probably give you his email address if you mail her. Again it was a while ago, 2010 ish so not 100% if the contact details still valid.
Remember Didier being more of a character though and very fun day out guiding so would try him first.

Tim Blakemore, Scottish guy, is also very good. I had two days with him last year, and would use him again in a heartbeat. One of my friends was with me for one of the days, and said it was her best day on snow ever

If not yet sorted you could try Powderama. I did an off piste course with him 2013. www.powderama.com @powderama on Twitter

@Pete Reed, I think they are just an instructor outfit, not mountain guides.
