We help families and caregivers connect.

Families use Care.com to find child care, senior care, special needs care, pet care, housekeeping, and tutors. Our data-driven insights help families narrow their candidates based on factors such as pay rates, location, family makeup and needs. In addition, our Safety Center provides guidance and resources, including access to background checks and a hiring guide and interview tips, to help families make informed hiring decisions. And our online Community, visited by millions of unique users per month, offers advice to families on a wide range of topics, including parenting, elder care, and how to find, manage and pay for care. Families also turn to Care.com HomePay to manage the responsibilities of payroll and taxes associated with being a household employer.
