Private caregiver jobs, working directly for families
Working privately for a family means you set your rate, you choose your hours, and nobody takes a cut of what the family pays you. Kalvri introduces you to families who already fit.
Why caregivers go private
- Your rate is agreed between you and the family, and it is all yours.
- You choose the families, the hours and the kind of care.
- You get to know one household well instead of rushing between visits.
What to agree with a family
- Hours, duties and what happens when plans change.
- Your rate, how and when you are paid, and overtime.
- Time off, sick days and notice if either side ends things.
- Whether you are a household employee or self-employed — tax rules differ, so check them.
How Kalvri works for caregivers
Caregivers never pay Kalvri anything. Until Kalvri opens on the App Store you apply once, and a person reads every application. In the app you tell Kalvri your hours, your rate, your skills and what you will not do, and families whose needs you meet see you, ranked by fit.
- No fee to apply, no commission, and every conversation is free on your side. The family pays you directly, and every dollar is yours.
- Families who need work you have said you won't do, or more than the hours or distance you set, are not put in front of you.
- What you say you will not do is respected. Kalvri never pushes you toward work you have ruled out.
- You talk with a family before anything is agreed, and you can review the families you work for.
