Membership Agreement
We require members to thoroughly review our rates, membership agreement and booking fees; along with available services (please note that we do not provide nanny placements) and cancellation policies, PRIOR to registration.
As a small business, we are unable to provide refunds to those who are uninformed on the services we provide, and the fees applicable.
After registration, Members are required to manage their account, and abide by the terms of the agreement while using our platform.
Membership is subject to termination at any time due to breech of the membership contract. This includes: communications with our team that are rude, condescending, and/or having unrealistic expectations of our staff, & communicating with our providers outside of appointments.
We choose to work with families who are respectful, and conscientious regarding the logistics of our operation that include the management of over 500+ quality providers and staff members.
