A caregiver marketplace built on trust, not just verification
Trust, explained — not just verified.
Every family hiring a caregiver is trusting a stranger with the most vulnerable person in their life. Wardwell shows exactly what "verified" means, keeps checking after day one, and makes reporting a concern as easy as finding a caregiver.
What "verified" means here
Tiered, explained badges
Identity, background check, and references are shown separately — each with a one-line, plain-language explanation of exactly what it covers.
Continuous, not one-time
Background checks keep running after day one. Profiles show 'continuously monitored since [date]' — not a checkmark from six months ago.
References that actually happen
Structured questions go out to listed references; responses are logged and summarized on the profile, not just collected and filed away.

How Wardwell works
Post a need or build a profile
Families describe the care they need. Caregivers build a profile and start verification — identity, background check, and references.
Message and book on-platform
Talk before contact info is exchanged. Book, schedule, and pay through Wardwell — no side deals, no lost history.
Trust keeps being checked
Background monitoring continues after the first booking. Report a concern any time — it's never buried in a settings menu.
