How it works

Care you can trust, in a few taps.

Lvyla turns finding a caregiver from a stressful gamble into something calm and predictable. Here's the whole journey, from the moment you open the app to the moment your sitter waves goodbye.

Built for real life

Care that fits your day, not the other way around.

The meeting that ran late. The sitter who cancelled. The evening that came together at the last minute. Lvyla is built for all of it.

The journey

Five steps, start to finish.

  1. 01

    Set up your family profile once

    Add your children's ages, allergies, routines, your address, and the little house rules that matter. You enter it a single time, it travels with every visit, so you never re-explain bedtime.

  2. 02

    Choose Instant or Scheduled

    Need someone right now? Instant gets you matched right away. Planning ahead? Pick a date, time, and duration, and Lvyla finds caregivers whose availability fits.

  3. 03

    Get matched with a vetted caregiver

    Every caregiver has already cleared identity verification and a background check. Lvyla matches you with the best-fit caregiver, and the ones your family has super-liked come first, whether it's Instant or Scheduled.

  4. 04

    Track the visit live

    See when your caregiver is on the way and follow the visit in real time. Need to reach them? A masked in-app call connects you without either side sharing a real phone number.

  5. 05

    Pay securely and review

    Payment is handled in-app, no cash, no awkward math. You get an itemized breakdown of care time, any overtime, and the support fee, then leave a review to help the next family.

Instant matching

Need someone now? Lvyla finds them.

Instant is built for real life, the meeting that ran late, the sitter who cancelled, the evening that came together at the last minute.

Request in one tap

Set the time you need and request care. Lvyla takes it from there.

Matched in minutes

Lvyla lines up an available, cleared caregiver, often within minutes. No back-and-forth, no waiting on replies.

Only pay when matched

Your card is only authorized once a caregiver accepts, always at the rate shown up front.

Scheduled booking

Planning ahead? We line up your match.

When you know your week, Lvyla matches you with the best-fit caregiver whose availability covers your window, no guessing, no double-booking.

Real availability

Lvyla only matches you with caregivers genuinely free for your entire window.

Matched by fit

Lvyla weighs experience, your preferences, and your family's profile to pair you with the right caregiver.

Extend on the fly

Running late? Request more time mid-visit and your caregiver can accept in a tap, fairly paid for every extra minute.

Common questions

When will Lvyla be available?

We're launching in Austin first and opening the waitlist now. Join it and we'll email you the moment your spot is ready.

How much does it cost?

You pay an hourly rate for care plus a small support fee that keeps Lvyla safe and running. Every booking shows a clear, itemized total before and after the visit, no surprises.

What if a visit runs over?

If a visit runs over, the extra time is billed at the same hourly rate as the visit, prorated by the minute and itemized separately on your receipt. You can also request an extension mid-visit, which your caregiver accepts in a tap.

Is my information private?

Yes. Your address and phone number stay masked until a visit is confirmed, and calls route through a private number so real digits are never exposed.
