We were traveling from out of state for a wedding weekend full and I was so worried about childcare. We had never been to the area. Linda with Jovie was so helpful and put my mind at ease. It was important to me to be able to use the same sitter for more than one night, we needed someone to drive, and of course someone who would be great with 2 young children. We were paired with Kandii and she was absolutely wonderful! She was very patient with me as I navigated the logistics and she followed all of my timelines. My son didn't even glance back at us after we'd leave him with Kandii. More than a month later, the kids still remember her and ask about her. The peace of mind that Jovie via Linda/Kandii gave us was so worth it. Thank you!!!
Jovie provided the best childcare for my wedding in January 2022!! The company was easy to work with, provided professional level services and the children all had a blast with their sitter! They were able to provide care for 8 children ranging from ages 5 months-8 years old. My guests LOVED the peace of mind that the caregiver was background checked and she even came with crafts, toys, music and a pack and play for the younger children to sleep in. The sitter came dressed in a Jovie T-shirt, so it was easy to know who was in charge of childcare and we didn't have to search for the babysitter. She was prompt, positive and to this day my niece and nephew still talk about how much fun they had with Ms. Ashley! We feel very blessed and thankful to have found Jovie for our wedding. Our guests were able to enjoy the wedding and reception while their children also were able to have fun with the care provided. I know they also are flexible and you're able to use them both in hotel settings and at the reception venue depending on your preference. For us, we chose to have care at the venue. We highly recommend using Jovie for your childcare needs and know that this is one vendor you won't go wrong with!!
