We appreciate your feedback. We're glad to hear that the flexibility of the role has been a good fit, especially for those balancing school or other part-time work. Supporting our sitters is a top priority, and our office team works hard to provide guidance and resources whenever possible. We're sorry if this is not what you experienced. We also understand that pay is an important factor, and while we strive to offer competitive compensation, we’re proud to offer other meaningful perks like bonuses, telehealth, various discounts, along with a supportive team culture, fun office events, and opportunities to connect with fellow sitters. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts!

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.
