We provide thoughtfully matched nannies for your family’s unique needs. Our babysitter service is backed by the commitment of a caring, experienced team with the convenience and ease technology from our MyJovie Sitter App.
The owners of Jovie of San Diego have been supporting families with high-quality childcare solutions since 2004. Their organization owns and operates 13 Jovie offices across three states, with a dedicated management team of 24 experts in recruitment, staffing, caregiver development, and operational excellence. Since 2004, this team has staffed over 1,000,000 hours of babysitting and facilitated more than 800 successful nanny placements—each one guided by the belief that great care from nannies and sitters starts with a deep understanding of your family’s needs and personal connection.
We understand your family’s desire for childcare excellence, and a nanny or babysitter is one of the most important decisions a parent can make. That’s why Jovie of San Diego goes beyond basic profiles. We do much, much more than just basic resume matching. Our team works directly with you to understand your family’s schedule, personality, beliefs, routines, and needs. This helps us in outlining the experience and personality profile for your nanny or babysitter. Whether you’re looking for a part-time nanny, full-time household manager, or occasional babysitting support, we handle every detail—from building a custom job description to sourcing, screening, and matching the right candidate for you.
For families seeking a nanny placement, we provide a white-glove, concierge-style experience that reflects the level of trust, quality, and personalization expected in today’s high-demand households. Our multi-layered vetting process starts with an in-depth assessment of your childcare philosophy, the level of experience and reliability you are looking for, and the personality type of your ideal nanny. We back all of that up with a series of interviews, background checks, and reference verification. We specialize in making personalized matches based on your child’s developmental stage, your parenting style, and your family’s rhythm and values. You’ll meet only top-tier, pre-screened candidates, allowing you to stay focused on your career and family while we do the heavy lifting. Our goal is not simply to place a caregiver, but to find someone who integrates seamlessly into your home and builds a long-term relationship of trust and impact.
For families seeking babysitting services, we provide reliable, flexible access to our team of professional sitters. Once you join Jovie, you’ll gain access to our MyJovie App, where you can view your personally matched sitters, schedule care with ease, and even explore available team members when your go-to sitter is unavailable. Behind the app, however, is a real team. Our local Customer Care staff is available 7 days per week, ready to assist with scheduling, recommendations, and support, so you’re never left managing things on your own.
