Covered Care — Childcare, Simplified The easiest way for parents and childcare providers to schedule, communicate, and stay organized — all in one place. FOR PARENTS Find trusted care for your family. Connect with your existing sitter or browse providers nearby, and book sessions in seconds. See who's available this Saturday with smart scheduling — one tap and you're covered. See your next session at a glance with a countdown on your home screen. Leave notes for your provider before each session ("Emma has a playdate at 2pm"). Rebook your favorite sitter with one tap — same time, next week. Track your childcare spending week by week and discover backup providers through your sitter's trusted network. FOR PROVIDERS Run your childcare business from your phone. Manage your schedule, track your earnings, and communicate with families — no spreadsheets, no texting back and forth. Set your availability and let families book directly. See your daily schedule with a prep card before each session. Track earnings from both app bookings and off-platform work. Get a morning brief and weekly summary so you always know what's ahead. Log sessions with off-platform families and we'll help you invite them to connect. BUILT AROUND TRUST Covered Care isn't a marketplace of strangers. It's built on real relationships. When a parent connects with a provider, they can see that provider's trusted network — backup sitters who are personally recommended. Care you can count on, from people you trust. KEY FEATURES Smart scheduling to find available care by date and time. In-app messaging with booking context. One-tap rebook and quick session logging. Morning brief, session complete, and weekly summary notifications. Earnings and spending tracking. Trusted network discovery. Works for nannies, babysitters, and family childcare providers.
