## Review summary

While many users value Care.com as a way to find caregivers and have had success, the reviews cluster around five pain points: paying to message and post, unreliable caregiver replies and ghosting, frequent technical issues (slow performance, crashes, login failures), billing disputes and weak customer support, and safety/privacy concerns with sharing personal data along with occasional account closures. Some users also report limited caregiver availability in certain areas and accessibility from abroad. Overall, it remains useful but is hampered by cost, reliability, and support problems.

### Pros

- Useful platform for finding caregivers/nannies

- Centralized posting and caregiver search helps manage childcare efficiently
- Usability is workable after onboarding

### Cons

- Paywalls and subscription fees to message or post; pricing model can be costly and confusing
- Caregivers often unresponsive or ghosting, making it hard to secure hires
- Frequent technical reliability issues (slow load times, crashes, login failures)
- Billing disputes and weak customer support, including refunds and account cancellation problems
- Safety/privacy concerns about sharing personal data and occasional account closures
