Getting help
How to reach the Wyndy care team from the app or the web.
On this page
The Wyndy care team answers messages sent from the app or the web. The fastest way to reach them is from the app, where your message carries your account, and the job if you start from one.
Send a message from the app
-
Go to Me, then Help.
The screen says "We're here for you. Send us a message and our care team will follow up shortly." -
Write your message under Your message.
The box says "Tell us what's going on…" Include the date of the job and the person's name if it's about a specific job. -
Pick a topic under What can we help with?
It's optional, and it helps your message reach the right person. Tap a topic again to clear it. -
Tap Submit.
The button turns on once you've written at least a few characters. You'll see "Message sent. We'll be in touch shortly." Tap Done.
| Parent topics | Sitter topics |
|---|---|
| Booking | Jobs |
| Payments | Payments |
| Sitters | Bookings |
| Account | Account |
| Something else | Something else |
The team replies to the email address on your account.
If the message can't be sent, the app says "We couldn't send that" and keeps what you wrote in the box. Tap Submit again in a moment.
Get help with a specific job (parents)
Start from the job itself, so the team knows which one you mean. Open the job from the Jobs tab:
| Option | When it shows | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Get help, under "Need a hand?" | While the job is live: "If {Sitter} has not arrived yet, or something else is not right, we can step in." | Opens Help with the job attached, shown as "About: {job}". |
| {Sitter} never arrived | While the job is live | Opens Help with "Sitter never arrived." already written. |
| Report a cancellation issue | On a cancelled job | Opens Help about that cancelled job. |
| Questions about this charge? | On a completed job | Opens Help about that job's payment. |
| Cancellation policy | On a booked job | Shows the cancellation rules for that job. |
Sitters can open a booking from the Bookings tab and tap Get help, or write from Me, then Help.
Ask about a profile's verification
On a sitter's or family's profile, scroll to Wyndy Verified and tap Have a question? Message Wyndy Support. The Message Wyndy Support sheet shows who it's about ("About: {Name}") so you don't have to explain. Write your note and tap Send to Wyndy Support.
Reach us without the app
- Use the form on our contact page. It asks for your name, email, whether you're a parent, a Wyndy sitter or something else, and how we can help.
- Email support@wyndy.com.
Use these if you can't sign in, for example if your account was suspended. The suspended screen also has a Contact Support button.
Report a person
To report a profile, open it and tap ⋯, then Report. In a chat, tap ⋯, then Report Profile. See Blocking and reporting.
Good to know
- Help from a job attaches that job automatically. From Me, then Help, mention the job's date so the team can find it.
- For questions about fees, the Fees and charges page may already have the answer.
