  • Care.com Misleads Users – Your Personal Data Is Never Deleted!

    The app provides an option to delete your account, but when you select it, you receive an email stating: “We are unable to complete your deletion request because all personal information that we maintain about you is subject to a legal exception to deletion in accordance with California law.” Essentially, the delete option appears to exist only for regulatory compliance, but in reality, it does nothing to remove your data. I would think twice before using Care.com.
  • Would not recommend! They stole money from me!

    I paid the monthly subscription and it came out of my bank account and when I open the app it wants me to restore my purchase when I purchased it yesterday so now I have paid $51 and have not been able to access anything I will be contacting the correct people when I am able to.
  • Cannot have a specific username

    I got Care to get a nanny for my children, after I created the account on 3/9/2025 and paid $40, I tried to change the screen name to show my wife and I. It said it would not do that so I canceled but it has prompted me to verify my account which has all the same info as when I started. I was able to find a nanny and I just cancelled because I can’t log in and I have only had it 2 weeks.
  • Very buggy

    Get ready for lots of screens saying “error: something went wrong”
  • From mediocre to surprisingly bad

    I signed up for the premium membership and after a lot of searching, I did find some legitimate care givers. The problem is the app itself and the business model. You can’t contact care givers without creating a post, which then opens a floodgate of people contacting you. On top of that, it seems that now I’m being asked to pay up front for the requested time - even though I have a premium membership.
  • Limited functions

    Just skip the app and use the website. If someone messages you about a job, you can’t decline them from the app. You can’t favorite their profile from the response, either. The signup process was shady, too. I canceled immediately to be sure I wouldn’t be charged again (twice as much as I expected) in 3 months.
  • Not usable

    I’m sure this app works for some users. I unfortunately paid $40 to find a sitter for my baby and quickly got kicked out of the app because it needed to verify my account information? It’s been a few days now and it keeps requesting the same info from me but no solution. I would like to use their services if someone from the app could please help.
  • Ripoff - required premium payment

    By Demand Freedom
    I was trying to explore the app but it required a premium membership just to look at it. There was no free basic option, only monthly or annual premium “family” subscription. I cancelled it within 15 minutes and they refused to credit me back the $40 for the one month which I paid.
  • Not worth if unless you constantly need a new sitter

    I need a sitter for one night while I’m out of town and have to pay $40 to just message someone back. Total crock.
  • Slow app

    The service is good, but the app is so slow and buggy. Half the time I can’t access emails on my phone
