Ratings and reviews

A friendly warning: this app/service (and all other similar ones) is absolutely useless, unless you are willing to pay the premium subscription that allows you to message the babysitters, and of course this is not made clear from the start by them. The service model is terrible as the free version gives you ZERO benefits. Not even, for example,very limited messages to babysitters. Really, you get NOTHING from it. And it demands you to have a profile upfront (so you must input a lot of data).

terrible through and through!🤦‍♀️ The whole app is clearly designed for the developers to earn as much cash as possible, to the point you have to pay to show interest in more than 3 families a day, and literally cannot send a message to the families without getting the premium version. Most profiles are no-names with automatically generated descriptions, with no pictures or any useful information. Meanwhile the profiles of families that are legitimate are always insanely old and abandoned.

Super bad experience. I created a whole profile before being able to see the available sitters in our area (fine, but could be better, to get a quick idea if there are any), after selecting a few and trying to message one of them, I get told FOR THE FIRST TIME that I need to have a paid subscription in order to use the app. I mean, it's ok to have a paid model, but make it clear, so I don't need to spend 20 minutes setting it up to find out.
