EMERGENanny helps adults find and coordinate childcare with local babysitters and childcare businesses. Families can: - Search babysitters by location, availability, experience, skills, rate, and background-check status. - Browse daycares, before and after-school programs, camps, and local family events. - View profiles, save favorites, read reviews, request bookings, and manage appointment details. - Message caregivers and businesses, receive notifications, and start one-to-one video or voice calls with a connected caregiver. - Add a confirmed booking to the device calendar when they choose. Babysitters can create a profile, set availability, share experience and rates, upload an optional background-check document, respond to booking requests, and communicate with families. Childcare businesses can publish a listing, manage hours, photos, services, and verification documents. EMERGENanny is for adults 18 and older. It is a place to discover and coordinate care, not a babysitting agency. Users make their own screening and safety decisions. Rates and booking details are shown for planning; the app does not process payments. The app supports English, Spanish, and French. Camera and microphone access is used for calls, photo access is used for profile and listing images, location access helps geocode an address and calculate distance, and calendar access is optional for saving confirmed bookings.
