Care.com www.care.com Background Checks EASILY Faked- I know, I did it. Care.com cannot be trusted! Internet
I was recently a member of Care.com. I have used this site off and on for years to gain babysitting gigs. Due to a past addiction, it is very hard to find regular employment. I resorted to odd jobs, such as babysitting or cleaning to get by. My background includes multiple felonies. Despite this, I was able to pass a Care.com background check (which the family paid for I was told) by entering a bogus social with my real name. I worked for the family for some time, and someone I know told them of my past. They fired me, of course ( I would have too if I was shocked to find that a felon was watching my baby). After they reported me, Care.com did remove my profile, but I was easily able to make a new one using my same name. I truly thought it would be denied, but nope, they accepted my new account. I never hurt a kid, nor would I but that is not the point. If I could get away with this multiple times, so could a pervert or child abuser. It got me to think that perhaps I should warn families of my expierience and advocate that you should be very careful trusting Care.com. They are truly in it for the money. I am not in the buisness of childcare anymore, thanks to a blessing of a job oppourtunity, so consider this my farewall gift. Care.com background checks are a joke, and I can prove it. Try it yourself- make a fake account and watch how quickly your background comes back squeaky clean. Care.com is a ripoff. Good luck Moms and Dads. Protect your babies!
