Been hearing a lot of negativity about Care.com. So what's up?

[AnyaJ]

I was going to become a member of Care.com to try to find a nanny position but have been reading a lot of negative comments about it lately. Anyone care to share why?

*also are there any better places to look?

I have heard both good as well as bad things re: Care.com - mostly negative however.

One important thing to keep in mind re: Care…..+ other online childcare websites is that ANY and EVERYone w/access to the Internet can post online, claim they are a professional Nanny, w/however many years of experience they want, etc.

It is like finding a Nanny on Craigslist.

Also the background checks may be shoddy too.
