There’s never been a better time to break into the childcare industry. Whether you’re hoping to escape the corporate world by starting your own business or reenter the workforce after taking some time to raise children, there’s no doubt that you have an overwhelming number of options to choose from.
While the nannying industry might not have been your first thought when researching opportunities, the fact is that now is a better time than ever to break into this growing field. And with an experienced brand like Jovie to support you, you’re more likely to leverage your investment to the fullest.
An Increased Demand for Nannies and Sitters
The number of childcare workers like nannies is projected to grow by 14% through 2022. Some analysts believe that the reason for this growth is an increase in disposable income, allowing more families to invest in a regular nanny to help care for children. This has been great news for the Jovie brand. As we’ve expanded across 30 states, we’ve certainly noticed a strong demand for the services of our nannies and sitters. Given that those services are high-quality and booked at the convenience of one’s fingertips, we’ve enjoyed a competitive edge in the growing nannying industry.
