  • Condones abuse of the site, and illegal by employers and illegal

    Beware this site is used by employers that want to avoid paying benefits to employees, leaving them out in the cold if they get hurt on the job. Unable to get workers compensation, disability, unemployment. They pay less on salaries or by the hour to workers and avoid paying their share of taxes many times paying cash or and independent contractors. Those employers have the calculations that benefits them. Keep records of every msg and get a copy of your contract before you start work, otherwise they’ll change it at will when is not convenient for them. Employees shouldn’t save all their information related to work agreements and requests, including employed request to pay in cash, detail that had been carefully calculated to their advantage. Always report to workers compensation whenever you’re hurt on the job even if you’re independent worker or paid in cash, employees still have the right to medical attention, never used a personal insurance for work related injuries. to labor department if force to do tasks that pose a health risk, work hours not paid , OT not paid properly or not paid.

  • How are there so many excellent reviews?

    This app is expensive to find a sitter and they also charge fees just to pay your babysitter. They obviously are not investing their money into making this a better quality app. I’m fairly tech savvy and It is not user friendly. When you send a “private”message to a potential sitter, it sends it to multiple people in your area. There were a couple of sitters I would’ve liked to keep as a back up, but not first choice, and I told them I’d keep them in mind and my chats to these other sitters were on the back ups chat plus more as well so now I just look like a jerk and they can no longer be an option. Also, when you message someone they should be able to easily click on your profile and see your information (like your personal schedule that you’re needing help with and your “about you”). The amount of positive reviews is highly questionable. Also, the range of $/hr majority of these babysitters are asking is a lot.. $22-$30 an hour for a babysitter for ONE child. I would definitely invest my time and money elsewhere if I could go back in time.

  • Glitchy, unreliable, frustrating & difficult to use

    The two most basic functions for which an app like this is built are extremely frustrating and counter-intuitive: search, and chat. The app continuously glitches, re-sets, and is downright disorganized during the search and messaging process. These are simple features and a search/chat app should be able to handle them properly. As a parent trying to use this app to locate and communicate with potential caregivers, it’s ridiculous that this is our only option (unless you’re open to Facebook, which is less secure). The only benefit is the background check feature. Someone please fix this, or if you’re reading this and have the resources, create a better platform - you’ll have an immediate customer base. I’m only using this app out of necessity, not by choice. For context we’re mid-30’s and tech-savvy, and both of us literally hate using this app.
