Pros

Great place to work. The agency was very flexible with me regarding my schedule while I was in school. They looked out for me and took any concerns seriously. If there was a problem they listened. They also made sure that the families treated me with respect and not a second class citizen. Most families were great. It opened my eyes to different cultures and lifestyles that I will be able to use in my career going forward. Management is very considerate and understanding of circumstances that arise but if when the is taken advantage of they definitely will take disciplinary action.

Cons

I would have like to have been paid more but understand that because many jobs were contracted from an outside agency they were limited but did increase whenever possible.

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.
