For Caregivers

Join the Care Friends Referral Network

We connect experienced CNAs and private caregivers with families who need you. Set your own schedule, work directly with clients, and build lasting relationships.

Why Join Care Friends?

Work on Your Terms

Set your own hours, rates, and availability. You negotiate directly with families — no agency dictating your schedule.

Get Referred to Families

We actively match you with families seeking private caregivers in your area. No cold calling, no job boards — we bring opportunities to you.

Build Real Relationships

Work directly with your clients and their families. Private caregiving means deeper, more meaningful connections than agency placements.

I understand that, if accepted into the Care Friends network, I will represent myself only as an independent caregiver referred by Care Friends and not as a home care agency or agency representative. I agree not to solicit Care Friends clients for any agency or competing service, not to send another caregiver in my place without prior written approval from Care Friends, and to comply with the Care Friends Referral Protection Policy. I understand that violating these terms may result in immediate and permanent removal from the Care Friends referral network and loss of all future referral opportunities.
