Manana prioritizes safety by running a thorough background check and vetting process for each of our Helpers. When booking, you will have access to the Helper’s bio and reviews. You can message or request a phone call with any Helper to ensure you are completely comfortable before the initial booking.
Manana Helper background checks are processed by Checkr, a third-party background check provider. Manana requires this in order to keep Care Recipients safe and we will routinely perform background checks on active Helpers. Additional screenings may include motor vehicle reports, employment verifications, or international criminal checks.
To create an account for someone else’s care, you should use the ‘for someone else’ distinction. Select “Find Help” then create an account in YOUR NAME. When you are completing the profile, select this help is ‘for someone else’. This is where you will be able to share the details of the care recipient, and their care needs.
You can use Manana to find support as often as you need it. You can schedule help on a one-time basis, or for recurring needs.
If you don’t feel comfortable with your Helper, want help with something else, or simply want to try a new Helper, you can request a new Helper next time. The Manana platform allows you to review Helper bio, skills, and experience, and even have an introductory video call before booking. You book the Helper (or Helpers!) that feels like the right fit to you. If your Helper doesn’t meet expectations for any reason, please contact us immediately, and we’ll help you resolve your concern or find someone new.
All payment is completed on the Manana website. Payment will be held prior to the service and then finalized and released to the Helper after the service is complete. We accept all major credit cards. If the service you requested changes in any way at the time of service, you may be subject to additional charges.
