Our Story
UnoShift was founded by a team who saw first-hand the challenges faced by both caregivers and care companies. Our founders, worked as carers for two years and experienced the difficulties many caregivers face. Care workers often struggled with unreliable shift bookings, received minimum wage for their hard work, and frequently found themselves stretched across multiple jobs to make ends meet. Meanwhile, care companies were paying high rates to staffing agencies, only to deal with unreliable shift placements and ongoing staffing shortages.
They saw a broken system from both sides: care companies were paying a premium for unreliable service, and caregivers weren’t getting the compensation or flexibility they deserved.
Seeing this, our founders teamed up and set out to create a solution that would benefit both sides—by removing the middleman and allowing care companies to directly connect with qualified, verified care workers based on availability, location, and skillset. This is how UnoShift was born.
