How do I use the Job Board on the Upwards App?

1. Open the Upwards App and tap "View Jobs" on the Home Page.

You can also select "Menu" in the bottom right corner and select "Jobs" to connect with nearby families who need care. 


2. Select "Current Location" or type your zip code into the Search Bar.

If you select your Current Location, you will need to give the Upwards App access in your Settings. 


3. You will see all available jobs within a 10-mile radius. 

There is also a filter to help you find openings that best meet your needs. You can filter by:

• Date - Sort your openings by the newest care requests or start date. 

• Distance - You can search for jobs within a one-mile to 50-mile radius. 

• Age - Looking to find a specific age? Filter by Infants (0 - 2 years), Toddler (2 - 5 years), and Child (5 + years).

• Provider Type - Filter for jobs that best match your experience by selecting Daycares, Nannies, or Babysitters.

Don't forget to Select "Show results" and review your options!


4. Search through your options!

Make sure to scroll through the entire care request. Each care request will highlight the following:

• Zip Code - This can be where the family is located or works. 

• Family Details - This will highlight the age of the child or multiple children. 

• Care Needs - This includes the schedule needed and desired budget, as well as additional needs such as transportation, potty training, meals, etc.


5. Share your Interest!

You can now reply with a Yes or No. This information will be shared with the family or the Upwards Care Navigator to improve our tracking and identify who is interested! If you select "Yes," you can send an optional message to introduce yourself!
