Virtual information sessions March 20, April 25
From: Hokie Wellness
Employees registered with Care.com have the option to post a job when looking for help with children, parents, pets, or your home.
By completing an online form, you may select the qualities you want in a caregiver, pet sitter, or tutor. Interested caregivers respond to your job posting via the Messages tab on the website.
Caregivers provide comprehensive information about their qualifications and experience in their profile. Every caregiver completes Care.com’s background check, called CareCheck. You pay for caregivers through the Care.com website or Care app.
Care.com provides these helpful resources:
- How to post a job
- How to write an effective babysitter job description
- Six tips to setting expectations and evaluating your pet caregiver
The Care.com Premium Membership is available at no cost to full-time faculty, staff, and non-student wage employees across all Virginia Tech locations.
