Jobs Guidelines:

1. Do not post anything offensive.
2. Be respectful.
3. Do not post any contact information or links.

Care.com reserves the right to remove or make edits to your job as we see fit.

A job is a listing that you can post to Care.com announcing that you are seeking care. Care.com caregivers can then search and respond to your specific needs.

In My Account, click on the "Jobs" link in the left column. Then, click on the "Post a job" link. Fill out the form with details about your care needs, like type of care needed, dates, and times. Submit the form and you're on your way to finding care!

A one-time job is a single event on a single day. A recurring job is a job where you will need care to span multiple days, or the job happens with some frequency. For example, if you have a meeting every Thursday evening and need a babysitter during that time, that would be a recurring job.

At this time, if your job goes past midnight, you cannot use the "one-time" form. Please select the job type as "recurring" and enter the details there.

Select the job type as "recurring" and enter as much information as you can. In the Job Description section, describe your care needs in more detail.

We reserve the right to screen jobs at our discretion. If you follow our posting guidelines, you should not run into a problem.

For a "one-time" job, the job post expires on the date of the job or your entry for the "Post Job Until" section, whichever is sooner. For a "recurring" job, the job post expires on the end date of the job, or your entry for the "Post Job Until" section, whichever is sooner.

When a care provider chooses to apply to your job, they will fill out an application. An application is a message explaining why they would be a great fit for your needs. Think of this message as a cover letter, and think of their profile as their resume. In addition, if they have a background check on file, they can automatically give you access to their background check with their application.

Log into My Account, go to the Jobs page, and click "View Applicants" on the specific job. The number in parentheses after the link gives you an at-a-glance view of how many applicants have applied to your job post.

The person who posted the job will review all applicants and may contact you with follow-up questions or an offer. If you don't hear back, consider reviewing the quality of your profile, and, more importantly, keep trying!
