  1. You tell us your hours

    Send the form with the days and times you can work, your ZIP code and the jobs you have done.

  2. We talk it through

    We call to go over your skills, the pay you need and the hours that suit your family.

  3. We look for the fit

    We search for roles that match your hours and confirm the schedule with the employer before we introduce you.

  4. You meet the employer

    We set up interviews around your week. If you are hired, the employer pays you directly.

For employers: roles filled on hours a parent can keep

A schedule that works for parents widens the group of people who can say yes to your job.

  • Flexible role design

    We help turn a hard-to-fill role into school-hours, part-time, hybrid or remote work while keeping what the job needs.

  • Screened candidates

    Before anyone is introduced, we check their work history, the hours they can keep and any license the role requires.

  • Equal opportunity

    Every role is open to every qualified applicant. We never ask you to prefer or exclude anyone because of sex, marital status or family status.
