First, you decide on what exactly you are looking for, and type in your zip code to check what is avaliable. Living in the sticks where I do, there are actually quite a few listings in my area! The caregivers upload a picture, tell their experiences, age, qualifications, their rate,when they are avaliable, and what exactly they are looking for.
If you are interested, you can contact them thru care4hire, and set up a time to meet in person, or schedule help! To hire a caregiver, you can sign up with a membership plan, and they also offer a free 14 day membership, just to test the waters. - how cool is that?
Also listed on the site are great information such as tips for hiring caregivers, such as your screening process, contacting previous providers, background checks, etc. Also offered are gift certificates, which would be a wonderful gift for mommas, like me, hint hint....
Care4hire also has a blog that is updated all the time, with awesome information! Practically any question about anything to do with caregiving you can imagine!
Overall, I am diggin' this company, and I love what all they offer! I am on my way to finding a babysitter myself! .... or even a housekeeper! Whoo-hoo!
