This is the first time we've needed to search for a caregiver for our parent. So far, your site makes the search much more pleasant and easy. We are hopeful we will find someone to begin soon.

This site barely works
February 27, 2022

This site barely works. I couldn't upgrade in Chrome, we had to create a new account as we couldn't update our location. The messaging never clears.

While on my cell phone I tried upgrading as I am in dire need of immediate care for my son. I entered everything correctly over and over again and it kept saying there was an issue with one thing or another. I got on my friends laptop and entered all of the same stuff and it worked to upgrade it. This is a very stressful moment for myself and for this to not work under stress is upsetting.

It's annoying to have to pay before I've even found a tutor. It makes y'all seem like you're just after the money.

I was bait and switched to paying more than was perceived for the best savings of 12 months. I would like to speak to someone ASAP!

The background check + security option, and all options should be offered when selecting/paying for the subscription to allow the promo code discount to apply. Only showing options afterwards + not allowing the promo code/discount to be applied feels like the discount code itself is misleading. "applies site wide..."

You've not given me a chance or asked me for a password, yet when I try to ask you to send me an email to set a password, your website locks up. When I try to message a provider, your website locks up.

You pay for the premium membership and then they ask you for more money to view background checks on their employees.
