Jobs requested, Pending account, Can't message families The company needs to seriously fix the issue with pending accounts. The site say is should take 24hrs, which is misleading. The moment I have virtual chat and explain my pending issue, it should be fixed and unlocked so I can communicate with families! everyone keeps saying 72hrs here, 72hrs there. I spoke to about 3 different agents and they all give the same story(72hrs). I've had this account for weeks!

Don't get trapped!! They will auto-renew your account even AFTER cancellation. I had a one month premium membership with care.com. Upon reviewing some provider's profiles and trying to connect with them through the system, it became very clear that many of the provider's accounts were outdated. Their posted availability was not current, a few had picked up other jobs and had not yet cancelled their accounts, many folks didn't respond to messages, and one young lady didn't even know that she had an active account and lived 2 states away! In hindsight, this should have been my warning. I cancelled the membership, got an email confirmation of the cancellation (had to ride out the full month) and was assured that I would not be charged again. WRONG!!! They continued to charge my account for months after and when I finally noticed this on my credit card statement and called them, their phone system directed me to their website for assistance. I found the chat feature again and that person/bot did nothing to resolve this issue. The excuse was that my membership was reactivated -- I assure you that I did not do this -- and per their policy, could not issue a refund. I went to BBB to file a complaint and care.com is not accredited. I would absolutely not recommend this service to anyone.

Beware of automatic charges on your credit card! The care providers I found on the site were good but beware that care.com automatically sets up autopay and they do not notify you when they are charging your credit card! It's just a way to scam you out of money!

Good for clients, but not user friendly I have got a lot of clients through care.com which is wonderful.But it is not very user friendly. I have had a lot of tech issues some of which have prevented me from responding to potential clients; possibly lost clients due to that. When I go to customer service I can usually get responses through the chat but often times they tell me it needs to go to IT and I will hear from them in two weeks. Both times it took about six months to hear back. Also when I apply half of the applications I put in are of people who are not actively hiring. However there's no way to know that until I submit to the job. I'll send about thirty messages and only about five of them are actively hiring. Lastly , there's a lot of things that were not told directly that caused a lot of issues. For example you cannot send links through care.com and there's a limit to how many messages you can send in a day. Not knowing these 2 things caused a lot of strife and me having to message multiple people through their chat to figure it out.

Bizarre site, get kicked out for no reason The site seemed ok, I paid for 3 months, then it just cancel my membership with a refund a few days later and deleted me. Apparently I don't meet their criteria when I asked why. I'm looking for a housekeeper and they have housekeeper, it's not like they are a proper agency, they allow individuals looking for work to register and have a profile so people can contact them or apply to work with other people such as myself job adverts, so it basically is an internal job listing site. Expect to suddenly get kicked of with no reason and pray you aren't mid arranging something, you need to pay both sides to contact people, and often people don't reply....
