I've been a caregiver for Care.com, since 2018, with a 5-star average rating. I watch infants 0 mos - 12mos or until they start walking on their own. I just finished my 4th family, having watched her for almost 10 months. When I was reading the review they had left, I noticed my 5-star rating had gone down to 4?! I didn't understand why because I had the four 5-star reviews and no others. I contacted Care and they said I needed the newer version of their app, so I updated. Now, a 1-star review saying I didn't show is there! ... read more

I just called my credit card company to dispute this payment. What they did - I went on the website and it said ***** per month - cancel at any time. AFTER I checked out with the credit card the charge showed as $164.73!! I immediately contacted Care.com and told them to cancel the payment. I can't afford that much money and I don't need to search for a babysitter for a whole year! They said NO they do not give refunds! When I selected the $***** per month checkbox it said "cancel any time" When I contacted them they said I ... read more

I made a care.com account years ago and Ive been inactive since. I cant figure out how to close my account so I just left it alone. I never signed up for any subscription and I got charged $20 at 1:00 am this morning. This is ridiculous and Ive never been more upset.

Scam artists. Do not use this company. They will promise you a bunch of stuff just to get your business and then s**** you over once they get you under contract. **************** is nasty and unprofessional. Id give 0 stars if I could

They are dishonest, it says free trial but they took $155 out of my account right away. I tried to cancel right away but I was out the money. They do not certify the people they have. Its only a list of names that sign up in your area. I called the number and was told no supervisor is there I would get a email back but never did.**** *.

They charging caregivers premium but they don't have access to their applications unless the speaker doesn't have paid premium subscription. Soo greedy collecting money from both sides.

***** to cancel this subscription after signing up for the initial few months. Got auto charged again, for no explainable reason, contacted customer service to be told no refunds. This company is dishonest and money hungry. ******.

******** company! I paid $40 for a month's subscription and $20 for background checks, one day later they canceled my account and said I violated their guidelines but I didn't do or say anything wrong at all! They won't even tell you why! I really need to find help caring for my mother and this was my last resort. Now all I've done is waist money and didn't even have a chance to get the one person's info that was interested. They won't refund my money and have no customer service phone number to call! You can only chat with ... read more
