help Care.com FAQ

What kinds of care can families find on Care.com?

Care.com covers childcare, senior care, disability care, housekeeping, pet care, and tutoring. Families can describe their needs and review caregiver profiles that match the requested service.

Can I find a babysitter through Care.com?

Yes. Childcare is one of the platform's main categories, and families can search for babysitters, nannies, and other child-care providers. Families should still check references, qualifications, identity, and local legal requirements.

Does Care.com provide background checks?

Care.com has offered background-check options for eligible caregivers, but the exact screening level and availability depend on the service and location. A platform screening should not be treated as a complete substitute for checking references and interviewing someone.
