So many ads! Just let me buy the membership. Plus, you advertise 20% off, and then when I subscribe, the code is gone!

I feel it was misleading to say you provide background checks with the premium membership and then charge extra for that service.

Hello Sally, Thank you for your membership and your feedback. I am sorry you felt that the background check fees were not clear. All caregivers are required to have an initial Carecheck/background to join Care.com. We do offer options for more extensive background checks depending on the need of the member. For assistance, please reach out via our Help Center contact us link at help.care.com or Facebook Messenger. Include Reference Number REV-008918

Having to pay before viewing applicants is pretty $#*!ty. The paywall is fine, but needs to be before the first round of communication. We can't even see if the money is worth the applicants.

Hi Nicholas, We are a paid subscription service and not a free service. I'm sorry if you thought otherwise and therefore felt mislead. That was never our intention. Many sites like ours charge a fee in order to be able to offer you the features our site offers. Otherwise we'd just be like any other free classified site with very little to offer.

The options for what you're looking for is... limited.

You should really expand on the type of caregiver that you may be looking for. Post Surgical, medical, adult care, etc. There are lots of options here that are missing.
