Care.com

Hi, ladies.  Just wondering if any of you have had experience finding care givers on  care.com?  We are moving in 6 weeks and I need to find a new nanny for my 2 girls.  I have engaged an agency to help, but they have been slow to respond.  Just wondering if anyone has had good experiences. 

 TIA!!

Re: Care.com

  • I hired my houskeeper through it, and I'm very happy with her. My sister and her friend are university students and they use it to find baby-sitting/nanny jobs. They like it and the families that found them are really happy with them.

  • I have used care.com and sittercity.com  in the end, I had better success with sittercity.  I just felt the pool of applicants were a bit better.  But I have a feeling that my vary by region.  the ultimate decider was that I also was able to find a coupon code for sittercity for a year membership on the cheap.

    good luck with your move!

  • Yep.  I've used it to hire 2 baby sitters and our pet sitter/house keeper.  Worked great for us.

  • We've found 2 nannies on care.com.  We had plenty of people to choose from.
  • I found my son's babysitter on care.com and she is amazing. I had a ton of people apply for my posting and interviewed 4 or so. They all were qualified and very nice.

    Good Luck! 

  • We just hired our nanny via care.com.

    I had over 90 applicants. We interviewed 4.
