LoLo is a marketplace and coordination platform connecting independent caregivers with families seeking everyday non-medical support.

1. Create a truthful profile

Describe experience, services, comfort level, service area, and availability. List credentials only when current and accurate.

2. Complete onboarding review

LoLo's current caregiver page requires profile review, identity verification, background screening, and onboarding steps before matching. [1] A completed check supports trust but cannot guarantee safety or fit.

3. Review requests

The public workflow says caregivers can see task, schedule, location, care notes, and pay details before accepting. [1]

Check travel, timing, transportation, household conditions, boundaries, and whether the tasks match your skills.

4. Accept only a good fit

Ask questions before committing. Do not accept clinical, unsafe, unclear, or out-of-scope work.

5. Complete the visit professionally

Confirm tasks, arrive reliably, respect privacy, stay within scope, and use the agreed communication and visit process.

6. Build reputation over time

Reviews and a record of dependable work can strengthen a profile. Work volume or earnings are not guaranteed.

LoLo describes caregivers as independent. Classification is fact-specific under law; a label alone does not decide it. [2] Read current agreements and obtain personal advice when needed.
