About Jovie

At Jovie, we help families thrive by providing exceptional childcare in both home-based and center-based settings. We are seeking warm, engaging, and passionate childcare providers to join our team in a flexible hybrid role that includes Nanny, Sitter, and Assistant Teacher opportunities.

This is an ideal position for individuals who love working with children, want variety in their schedule, and enjoy supporting families and classrooms across a range of ages—from infants to school-age children. (Even if you want a consistent schedule, we offer nanny placements too)

As a Jovie Childcare Provider, you will have the ability to choose and manage your availability through our mobile app. You may work in:

  • Private homes as a Nanny (full-time, part-time, before-school and/or after-school)
  • Private homes providing sitter services (full-day or half-day assignments, on-call care, or date nights)
  • Local childcare centers as an Assistant Teacher

You may work in one area or across all three depending on your interests, availability, and experience

  • Maintain a clean, safe environment and follow Jovie and family safety guidelines.

Assistant Teacher Responsibilities

  • Support lead teachers and admin staff with classroom routines and learning activities.
  • Assist with daily curriculum, play-based learning, and social skill development.
  • Supervise children during meals, rest time, outdoor activities, and structured play.
