Pros

Flexible- you can make your own schedule Decent pay for the area Usually able to get a shift on short notice. Parents always need care. Management is kind and accommodating overall.

Cons

No benefits provided even if full time You have to request to see feedback from families- it isn’t on the app or sent to you which I think it should be. They only provide you with 2 Jovie shirts which easily become worn if working full time and washing often, but they expect you to wear the shirt to every shift and even when asked they won’t provide more

Pros

I've worked with Jovie Newport Beach since 2022. I started as an on-call nanny and worked my way up into administration. I am now in charge of recruitment, event coordination, and general management. I love the company culture and encourage families to use our services and for potential nannies to apply! I have met many great people through the Jovie network! It has been great!

Cons

I can't think of any cons!

Pros

Help find you a family to work with. I could see how this could perhaps be great for part time

Cons

LOW PAY for the job. After 3 years with Jovie, I was getting paid $16/hr and my full-time family was paying somewhere from $26-28/hr. They told my nanny family I was getting higher raises than I was. MUCH fairer companies out there. No PTO due to "not being salaried employees" even though that's not how PTO works! Constantly nagged about logging in my hours even though I was always on top of it. Going through them was a pain. Don't recommend. Always wondered if why they rebranded from College Nannies and Sitters was to try to separate from all the negative reviews.
