If jungle invades are a big issue then try to change your jungle route. I usually start with red buff on Nautilus because very few players will expect that for a Nautilus. You have enough mana to do red + 1 small camp and blue buff, or at least I always have just enough to do 3 camps (and I'm not running any mana masteries or runes). In terms of clear time I don't think it matters much and it's well worth it if you can avoid invades by taking a slightly less efficient path imho.

After your first clear it's simply a matter of keeping an eye on the timers and being there as it spawns or slightly before that. Also make sure you put up a ward or 2 so you can see an invade coming and request help from lanes. The biggest factor with invades though is how your lanes are doing, if they dominate and their jungler needs to help their lanes that means he can't invade as much. If their lanes dominate you then that usually means trouble as that gives their jungler time to invade. So try to do some good ganks early on to get your lanes rolling.
