Two-sided vetting. Because trust goes both ways.

Most platforms only check caregivers. We screen everyone — families included.

Caregiver Background Checks

Every caregiver passes a comprehensive background check including criminal history and sex offender registry before joining the pool.

Family Screening

Families complete an application, interview, and registry check. Our caregivers never walk into an unvetted home.

Personal Interviews

We interview every caregiver and every family by phone or video. No faceless profiles — we know our community.

Two-Way Ratings

After every booking, both sides rate the experience. Consistent quality stays. Issues get addressed immediately.

No surprises. No hidden fees.

One-time registration covers your vetting. Monthly membership gives you access to the entire caregiver pool.
