What types of background checks does Care.com perform on caregivers?
Care.com conducts comprehensive background checks on caregivers to ensure the safety of our members. Our screening process includes criminal record searches at the county, state, and national levels. This helps identify any history of violence, sexual offences, or other criminal activities. Additionally, we verify Social Security numbers to confirm identity and check the National Sex Offender Public Website. Care.com also examines driving records when applicable, ensuring caregivers meet the necessary criteria for safe transportation. We continuously monitor and update all background checks to provide accurate and current information. While our process is thorough, it is important to note that background checks may not guarantee complete reliability, and users should utilize their own judgment and further screenings when selecting a caregiver.
