We make the match. You hire directly.
StewardMatch is a matchmaker, not an agency. We find and check the right people; you and your provider agree on the work and the pay.
For clients
Tell us what you need
Pick one or more categories, then share your location, timeline, budget and a few details about your home or family.
We match you with up to 5 providers
We match on your must-haves, like schedule, budget, experience, certifications and language: one person who covers it all, or a specialist for each need. Care providers pass extra checks before approval, and special cases like newborn or overnight care get a personal look.
Meet your matches
See photos, rates and profiles, and chat privately first. Your name and number stay hidden until you both say yes.
Hire directly
Interview, call references and run a paid trial with our toolkit. Then agree on schedule and pay directly with your provider.
For providers
Build your profile
Choose your main category and up to two more, then add your rate, availability, a photo and a note on how you work.
Get checked
Confirm your identity with a quick selfie, add two references, and submit a background check. Some categories add one more check.
Get matched
When a client's needs fit what you do, we introduce you. No bidding, no chasing leads.
Work on your terms
You set your rate and clients pay you directly. StewardMatch takes no cut and charges no lead fees.
One person, or a specialist for each
Pick every kind of help you need. Choose one person who covers it all, or get matched with a specialist for each.
Raise-your-hand requests
A sitter for tonight or help for a weekend? Post a one-time or backup request and checked providers nearby who are free raise their hand. Pick who you want, or take the first qualified yes.
Check-ins and free rematches
We check in with you both at 7 and 30 days. If it isn't working in the first 30 days, we rematch you free. Clients and providers rate each other after every hire.
What clients pay StewardMatch
One fee, once: 10% of your first month with your provider. Never less than $29 or more than $999. For one-time jobs, it's 10% of the whole job.
| Example | You pay your provider | StewardMatch fee |
|---|---|---|
| Biweekly house cleaner | ~$400 first month | $40 |
| Weekend nanny (one-time) | ~$500 job | $50 |
| Part-time family assistant | ~$2,400 first month | $240 |
| Full-time house manager | ~$6,700 first month | $667 |
You see the exact fee before you pay. You're charged only when a provider accepts, and rematches are free for 30 days. You pay your provider directly; we never take a cut of their pay.
