Pros

Easy to access management. Families can now request a specific nanny which makes it more comfortable to go back to a family you are familiar with.

Cons

They expect you to be available/on your phone 24/7. Automatic placement makes it so you cannot decline a job if something comes up. The owner is self-absorbed. No guarantees on placements and hours. On-call pay is low and you do not get compensation for mileage. You only have 1 hour to confirm a job so if you are busy/in class this is not sufficient time.

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.
