Yes, Ivan VI of Russia was placed under the care of a guardian after being separated from his parents. Following the death of his father and the political turmoil surrounding the young tsar, he was taken to Kholmogory, where he was kept under the supervision of a caretaker named Sergei Panteleimonovich. Ivan was only a baby when he became the tsar, and his guardianship was intended to keep him away from the political intrigues of the court, particularly during the time of Empress Anna and later the usurpation of the throne by Elizabeth. Ivan VI spent most of his childhood in isolation and was largely removed from the public eye until later in his life.
