Good health benefits. Deductible is high but there are two options. Terrible 401k. Only give $500 a year.

I did not get benefits but did have paid time off of two weeks. One week I got to pick and another was a week they picked.

The health & dental coverage is very good. Strong maternity leave policy compared to other US companies. Vacation is good, but would be better if it carried over.

The best thing is that I am a part-time employee and Care.com is consistently improving the benefits.

The vacation time is great. You get three weeks PTO when you start and unlimited sick time. The 401K match is atrocious/almost non-existent. Health insurance is just ok.

The worst part of working for them is that the persons reading the post think they can get a cheaper rate .

Variety of job opportunities, you basically make your own schedule according to the way you want it to be. It is a little hard for first time babysitters to find jobs so i would have some type of experience.

You receive discount benefits once you're a member and you are not required to pay for membership. You still receive the benefits even after downgrading your membership. Lots of discounts!

Sometimes I would get paid for days I wasn't needed. So that was the best perk. The worst, was the parents I had to deal with as well as care.com.
