Helpr Network Care
Pre-vetted professional caregivers from Helpr's network, at $45-50 per hour with a four-hour minimum and a 97% fulfillment rate. Continuous background checks are maintained throughout their time in the network.
Helpr is not a staffing agency and this is not a roster of childcare professionals you hire from. What an employer buys here is the vetting and the payment rail: Helpr screens the caregiver, onboards them, tracks the booking, and pays them directly against your subsidy, so your employee never fronts cash and your finance team never processes a care reimbursement. There are two routes into that. Helpr Network Care draws on pre-vetted professional caregivers from Helpr's own network at $45-50 per hour with a four-hour minimum and a 97% fulfillment rate, with continuous background checks maintained for as long as the caregiver stays in the network rather than run once at intake. My Choice Care goes the other way: the employee nominates someone they already trust, often a grandparent, a neighbour, or their existing nanny, and Helpr puts that individual through vetting and onboarding before paying them directly at a $12-20 per hour average subsidy. The reason Benefits Leaders care about the distinction is liability and utilization. An untracked cash stipend has neither vetting nor a record. A professional-only network has vetting but leaves employees in thin-supply markets and unpredictable shift patterns unserved. Running both is what produces a childcare benefit that is both defensible and used.
Both routes are vetted, both are paid directly by Helpr, and most programs run both.

The employee nominates a family member, neighbour, friend, or their existing nanny. Helpr screens and onboards that person, then pays them directly at a $12-20 per hour average subsidy.
Identity and eligibility verification, background screening, and onboarding are handled by Helpr for both routes, so the employer is not running diligence on individual caregivers.
Bookings, hours, and payments are recorded in the platform, giving you an auditable trail of what was funded and used instead of untracked allowance spend.
You set the Care Fund allocation and the guardrails. Both Helpr Network Care and My Choice Care draw against it, so there is one budget rather than two vendors.
When an employee needs a permanent arrangement rather than a booking, a dedicated care consultant provides 1:1 support sourcing and vetting options.
The value Helpr adds sits either side of the care itself: screening the person who shows up, and paying them without your employee or your finance team touching the transaction. In Helpr Network Care, professional caregivers are pre-vetted with continuous background checks and dispatched at $45-50 per hour with a four-hour minimum and a 97% fulfillment rate. In My Choice Care, the employee's own nominated caregiver goes through the same vetting and onboarding process before payment is released. Either way you are funding vetted care with an auditable record, not issuing an allowance and hoping.
What changes when the employer funds care through a vetting and payment platform.
Network caregivers are screened continuously for as long as they remain available to your employees, rather than cleared once at onboarding and never revisited.
Helpr pays the caregiver through the platform against your subsidy. Employees do not front the cost, and care never enters your expense or payroll process.
My Choice Care applies screening and onboarding to the caregiver the employee already trusts, so choice does not come at the cost of due diligence.
When an employee books a professional caregiver through Helpr Network Care, the shift is filled 97% of the time, which is the number that determines whether they book again.
No. Employers are not hiring staff from Helpr. You fund a care benefit, and Helpr handles the two things that make it work: vetting the caregiver who provides the care and paying that caregiver directly against your subsidy. The caregiver relationship sits with the employee and the platform, not with your organization.
