Trust & safety

Your family’s safety comes first. Here’s how GetHelpy builds trust.

Verification levels

  • 🟢 Reviewed — every helper profile is checked by a moderator before it goes live.
  • 🔵 ID verified — the helper has uploaded a government ID document.
  • 🟣 Background check on file — the helper has provided a police clearance certificate.

We display the documents helpers provide. Always meet first and use your own judgement.

Privacy & messaging

  • Communication goes through secure in-app messaging.
  • Phone numbers and contacts are not shared automatically.
  • Children’s details are only shown to a helper after you confirm.

GetHelpy connects families with independent helpers and is not an employment agency.
