Pros

-Flexibility Working as a nanny isn't terrible but the pay is far too low. If you decide to work in an admin position just be aware you'll be asked to do way more than you're paid for. It's a great job for you if you like being underpaid and don't enjoy an uninterrupted personal life. No health care or 401K for FT.

Cons

No respect for personal life/ time Text and emails at all hours Owner speaks negatively of coworkers and employees Low pay for what is expected

Pros

Flexibility in scheduling, feeling like I am appreciated and enjoying caring for families who value me as an employee.

Cons

I don’t have anything negative to say about this company. I have have been for over 12+ years. I think that sums it up.

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.
