Frequently Asked Questions
What payment options do I have?

Are your employees bonded and insured?
Yes, all of PPC’s employees are bonded and insured. They work directly with us and we
assume all responsibility for their taxes, benefits, workers compensation and insurance.
How soon can service typically start?
Services can begin within 24-48 hours depending upon when the Personalized Assessment is completed.
Occasionally, we can start the same day. In some cases a deposit will be required.
More information will be given to you at the time of the assessment.
What if I no longer need the services?
Services can begin and end as needed. Hours can increase and decrease as needed. We request a 48 hour notice to end services so we have time to move the caregivers to other assignments. Professional Parent Care will work hard to customize a care plan that works for the entire family.
