How can I find a good caregiver?
Looking for a senior caregiver to care for an elderly parent or loved one can be an overwhelming task. To make the process easier, start by outlining what you'd like from a candidate before starting your caregiver search. Think about the level of experience you wish them to have, the tasks that they would need to perform, and how much are you able to pay. To start the search process on Care.com, you will first need to create an account by answering a few simple questions to find caregivers that match your individual needs. You will then have the option to either post a job and receive applications from candidates, or search for caregivers on the platform based on years of experience, hourly rate, availability, services provided, distance from your area, etc. After you have selected your candidates, you can schedule interviews, check references, request additional background checks and hire the caregiver that best fits your needs.
