About Care.com
Care.com matches families with childcare, elder care and pet sitters. IAC acquired it in 2020 for about $500 million, following investigative reporting that the platform had listed carers whose credentials it had not verified. The company had gone public in 2014 and was taken private again by the purchase, and it now sits alongside Angi in IAC's portfolio of marketplaces connecting households to local workers.
