About Our Nanny and Babysitter Agency

Jovie places nannies, babysitters, and backup childcare across Westchester County in New York and four Connecticut counties. Every caregiver is our employee, screened and trained before they meet a family.

What we do

Childcare Families Can Rely On

Families come to us for three reasons: a nanny for the school year, a sitter for the evenings and weekends their own plans do not cover, or childcare their employer offers. All three are served by the same caregivers and the same screening.

Caregivers are employedPayroll, taxes, insurance, and screening stay with the agency for as long as a caregiver works with your family.

Checks finish before you meet anyoneBackground checks, references, and training are complete before a caregiver reaches your shortlist.

Local offices, one agencyOffices across New York and Connecticut share one pool of caregivers, so a family that moves between these towns keeps the same agency.

Families, employers, and eventsThe same screened caregivers work in homes, at company events, and in childcare centers that need cover.

The difference

Who Employs the Caregiver

Most agencies in these towns introduce somebody and step back, which makes the family the employer.

Our caregivers work for us, so payroll, taxes, insurance, and everything that follows stay on our side. When a family needs a full-time nanny we advertise and hire for that specific role, because a caregiver who already has a placement cannot take a new full-time job. The nanny you choose joins our payroll for your placement.
