You can search within 20 miles of an address, city or a zip code. Results are presented both on a map and as individual listings with detailed provider information.

These audits are conducted by the city or county officials to ensure a good level of care and service is provided. totkare.com also goes a step further by providiing downloadable/
All this functionality is delivered through an easy-to-use interface. This website is a free service for both parents and providers.
"totkare.com has its genesis in our personal experiences when looking for a careprovider for our children", say Alok Jain and Naveen Vemula, the co-founders. Comparable services such as Craigslist.org, Care.com, Sittercity.com and others are useful but either charge a fee or require significant time and effort to get to a meaningful set of results. totkare.com addresses these issues by providing a fresh and straight-forward interface; consolidated and easy-to-read results; useful resources to help parents through their search and last but not the least, all of this at no cost. Parents also have the option to rate providers - helping others narrow down choices. Upcoming enhancements to totkare.com include the ability to search by name and to filter results by the type of provider.
