Frequently Asked Questions

Common Questions About CareJan

What is CareJan?
CareJan is a bilingual caregiver marketplace and Domestic Referral Agency (DRA) operating under California Civil Code 1812.5095. We connect families seeking in-home care with vetted, independent caregivers who speak English and Farsi. Unlike a traditional home care agency, we do not employ or supervise caregivers — we facilitate the match so families and caregivers connect directly.
How is CareJan different from a caregiver agency?
A caregiver agency (also known as a Home Care Organization or HCO) employs caregivers and directs their work. CareJan operates as a caregiver registry — a Domestic Referral Agency. We provide the platform and vetting, but families hire caregivers directly as independent contractors or household employees. This gives you more control over scheduling, care preferences, and costs.
Do you have Farsi-speaking caregivers?
Yes. CareJan was built for the Persian and Iranian diaspora community in Southern California. Our platform is fully bilingual in English and Farsi, and we specifically recruit Farsi-speaking caregivers in Los Angeles, Orange County, Irvine, and San Diego.
What is IHSS and how does CareJan help?
IHSS (In-Home Supportive Services) is California's Medi-Cal program that pays for in-home care for eligible individuals. CareJan helps IHSS recipients find qualified providers through our free matching tier. If you're looking to become an IHSS provider, you'll need to complete a Live Scan background check, attend county orientation, and submit forms SOC 426 and SOC 846.
What areas does CareJan serve?
CareJan serves families throughout Southern California, including Los Angeles, Orange County, Irvine, San Diego, Beverly Hills, Glendale, Encino, Tarzana, Santa Monica, and surrounding communities. We're expanding our service area as our caregiver network grows.
How do I become a certified caregiver in California?
To become a certified caregiver in California, you'll typically need to complete a state-approved training program, pass a background check (Live Scan), and register with the appropriate county agency. For IHSS providers specifically, you must attend county orientation and submit forms SOC 426 and SOC 846. Once certified, you can join CareJan's caregiver registry for free to find families who need your services.
Is CareJan free for families?
CareJan offers a free tier for IHSS provider matching. For our premium caregiver marketplace with additional vetting, scheduling tools, and payment processing, standard platform fees apply. Download the app for current pricing details.
