The Tutor
November 10, 2024

Once I contacted Care.com, they had tutors for me to review within minutes. It was very easy to choose one with the information that was offered. The tutor has been to our house once & my grandson loves her. He feels very comfortable with her. The prices are reasonable, which was a plus.

You have to purchase a membership before you're allowed to review cleaning people who match your ad, very disappointed and very misleading

Unreliable and respondents
November 3, 2024

I had a number of candidates, but only a few that met my criteria. And then one person applied, I accepted, we made arrangements to meet to discuss the position, and she never showed. I reached out to her via text and call and she didn't respond at all. So I left a review stating such. Then she got mad that I did that, and she blocked my account. I don't need that kind of negativity when I'm trying to hire someone. Another person accepted the position but didn't want to take any advice as to how to do anything. I offered her to work with the existing person for a couple of hours to get a feel for the place and she refused, which was on a friday, so she said I'll see you on Monday. Meaning she wasn't going to work Saturday that she agreed to, and she was not hired from monday. These are the type of people I got.

Waste of money
October 24, 2024

Bought a premium subscription after having success as a guest. Would not allow me to communicate with candidates/applicants after they applied. Lost money. Lost time. Lost candidates. Went to a competitor. Found a candidate in no time. Care.com would not refund me my subscription even though it was only 24 hours old, with negative results.

Do not get a subscription.
