Pros

You told them when you could to work. Management is caring and understanding. They provide lots of information and supplies so you can do your job. If you're new to a city its a good way to explore the different areas.

Cons

The hours is all over the place. You may work a day and a half one day one week. Then work 13 out the the next 14 days. Sometimes with no notice for gigs which is the nature of an on-call job. There is no schedule or routine for day to day life. No regular coworkers so the job can get lonely. This is a good job if you're looking for extra income. Not for a single based income.

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.
