Pros

Working from home nothing else

Cons

IT IS MY OPINION that: the pay is Barely over minimum wage the owner of the company has no idea how to run a business there is no formal training at all the Owner will talk trash about you to other employees. she claimed I needed more training after one day when they have no training there is not a ton of work to do at night so the mangers will try to get you to do the work they don't want but are paid to do there is no communication the owner will call and text you when you are not scheduled expecting you to tend to work related matters off the clock they fired me after 3 weeks for no reason at all the 2nd person they hired the same day as I quit within 2 weeks they can't keep employees or caregivers because they are poorly managed

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.
