We understand finding the ideal carer for your child/ren and family can be like searching for Mary Poppins. We believe it is important for you and your children to feel a sense of confidence and comfort in your carer; and we have a desire for our Carer’s to enjoy the honour of supporting their families. We know this results in everyone being happier and achieving wonderful outcomes for the child/ren.
Our App will ensure matching your family with the right carer option/s assist in you and your children creating genuine and lasting relationships.
For regular ongoing care, sometimes finding the right carer will take some time, as there is no more important role than that of stepping into your shoes and caring for your children. You may even like to trial a few before settling on the right one. This can help you determine exactly what you are looking for in a carer with certainty.
To support you in this process, we will manually match carers and families together to introduce you with the most aligned carer/s at the point you are searching. These options can change from week to week with availability changes and recruitment ongoing, so if you don’t find your ideal carer first go, we will be sure to continue the search to ensure you are not disappointed.
Once matched with a carer, you will have full visibility of their experience, qualifications, location, insights into their personality, and what their references have said.
For casual care, we present you with the most suitable carer’s for you to review and select. The convenience and efficiency of this function means that you can book a carer 24/7 with as little or as much notice as suits you. Please note, all matches are subject to availability at the time of your booking.
We have established a professional and private communication platform to communicate with your carer/s. From arranging your initial meeting, trial or booking to the documentation of learning activities & milestones, health and well-being focuses, your child’s personal routines and more – you can feel confident that messages are streamlined in one function, not lost in text or email.
