Care.com connects families with caregivers for children, seniors, and pets through an online marketplace. Families can find caregivers by browsing profiles that include background checks and reviews, ensuring they choose the right person for their needs. Care.com operates mainly in the United States but also has a presence in other countries. The platform works on a subscription model, where families pay to access caregiver profiles and additional services, while caregivers can enhance their visibility with premium listings. This approach allows Care.com to generate revenue through subscription fees and services like payroll management and insurance. The goal of Care.com is to simplify the process of finding reliable care for families, making it easier for them to connect with qualified caregivers.
