How Carefully works
Build your own trusted network
You’re in control, adding only the people you trust and know to your network, and deciding which care requests to accept. Invite your friends, neighbors, family or connect with other families and caregivers by joining private Carefully Groups. Coming soon: City Hubs for finding new connections near you!
Integrate with your calendar
Carefully knows when you’re available, so you only get requests when you want them. By syncing with your iOS or Google calendar and setting your availability, Carefully effortlessly manages requests based on your up-to-date schedule.
Search & find care
Search across your trusted network to find care exactly when you need it, anytime. You’ll see who’s available, as well as the general availability of who isn’t… Let Carefully take the guesswork out of coordinating playdates!
Create & join private circles
Carefully Groups are a great way to expand your network by connecting to other parents in school, local organizations and clubs, sports teams, and more. Use a group code to join, or easily create your own group anytime. Great for big and small groups alike!
Messaging & notifications
Carefully’s Inbox lets parents privately chat within the app for organizing playdates, sharing pickup/drop-off details, pictures or video, or simply staying in touch. Carefully also notifies you about upcoming events and playdates to keep you on schedule.
