My nanny for my three children was not able to continue working for me, so I opened an account and was able to find many well qualified people interested in helping me. I had confidence in the applicants since they must pay for this network and have a background check on file. I was very happy with the timely help that I found on this site.

Great website/app for meeting clients. However, the customer service **** appear to have had only a ***** training/memorized sentences or nothing at all before taking my calls. Most of them have heavy accents and aren't located in the **, so have no clue about our system. Yesterday I spoke with "*******", with a heavy Hispanic accent despite the English name. My payment had been missing for 4 days, although I had called on 2 previous days about it already.He offered very little info, even after opening up my account and putt... read more

I had a great experience. The babysitter was very friendly and went over the top for my daughter. The pay process was simple, upfront, and easy.

If I have an issue with a company, I will try to work it out with them. I've really not used their services so therefore have no issues negative or positive.

I found this site to be extremely helpful and obtaining part-time assistance for family in our church. It was very easy to put on a job search the responses were immediate and detailed, and I was able to pick and choose based on the resumes and reviews of each of the candidates. Once I selected the candidate, it has been easy to communicate with them, and I am very pleased with the site overall.

I have found great care givers for my children through care.com and it continues to be the best resource that I have found for this. The background checks are already done and you can always choose to expand those checks for an additional charge. With that said, I do find the overall user experience to be very poor when navigating both the online site and the app.

I like the company so far. It allows me to find housekeepers, childcare or elderly care from caregivers in the area. I appreciate that they do background checks on everyone and allow me to request more thorough background checks so I feel good about the caregivers coming into my home. I do wish they had a ***** number to contact someone for help. Ive had questions pop up that it seems I cant get answered. Theres no one to talk to for support. I havent tried canceling my account but I read lots of negative reviews about peopl... read more

Care.com was there for me and my Mom. My mother needs home help. I work full time and as my mother gets older she needs help part time. Preparing meals, bathing and dressing. I found help that works around her time and with her fixed income that she can afford. Wonderful care givers , who have years of experience. They supply the vetting information for you and referrals. Agency's charge too much money and are for the sick. It is a blessing.***** ******
