Can’t contact babysitter without paying
As a parent, I went through the process of creating a profile including providing my ID and biometric data. Then I tried contacting a babysitter in my area and found that there is no way to do so unless you give the company a ridiculous amount of money for premium service. If it was $5 or $10, I wouldn’t have a problem, but they want $40 per month just to be able to contact babysitters. It’s an absolute joke. So now they’ve have all my data and I still cannot do the one thing the app says it would do, which is find and book a babysitter.
