Last updated: February 2, 2026
Welcome to Homebase
Homebase is a service provided by Mighty Jo LLC, and is part of the Illumination + Inspiration family of products. These terms govern your use of Homebase. By using our platform, you agree to these terms. We've tried to keep them clear and fair.
Using Homebase
You may use Homebase if you:
- Are at least 18 years old or have parental consent
- Provide accurate information when creating your account
- Keep your login credentials secure
- Use the platform for lawful purposes only
Your Content
You retain ownership of all content you create on Homebase, including your children's profiles, activities, and portfolio items. We don't claim any ownership rights to your content. You grant us a limited license to store, display, and process your content solely to provide our services to you.
Free and Paid Services
Homebase offers both free and paid features. Free accounts have access to core functionality. Paid subscriptions unlock additional features and storage. We'll always be clear about what's free and what requires payment.
IMPORTANT: Third-Party Provider Disclaimer
HOMEBASE IS A LISTING PLATFORM ONLY. We provide a directory service that allows third-party activity providers, instructors, organizations, and businesses ("Providers") to list their services, programs, and activities. Homebase does not own, operate, manage, or control any Provider or their activities.
NO AFFILIATION OR ENDORSEMENT: The inclusion of any Provider on Homebase does not constitute an endorsement, recommendation, certification, or approval by Homebase, Mighty Jo LLC, or Illumination + Inspiration. We do not verify, investigate, or guarantee the qualifications, credentials, background, safety practices, or suitability of any Provider.
NO VETTING OR BACKGROUND CHECKS: Homebase does not conduct background checks, criminal history screenings, reference checks, credential verifications, or any other vetting procedures on Providers or their staff, employees, contractors, or volunteers. Providers are solely responsible for their own hiring and safety practices.
USER RESPONSIBILITY: You are solely responsible for conducting your own due diligence before engaging with any Provider. This includes, but is not limited to, verifying credentials, checking references, conducting background checks, reviewing safety policies, and making informed decisions about the suitability of any Provider for your family.
Provider Verification Badges
WHAT "VERIFIED" MEANS: Some Providers on Homebase may display a "Verified" badge. This badge indicates ONLY that the Provider has completed one of the following verification processes:
- Identity Verification: The individual has submitted a government-issued ID and selfie that have been verified through our third-party identity verification service (Stripe Identity).
- Document Verification: The organization has submitted business documentation (such as a business license, 501(c)(3) determination letter, or insurance certificate) that has been reviewed by our team.
WHAT "VERIFIED" DOES NOT MEAN: A "Verified" badge does NOT indicate:
- A criminal background check has been conducted
- References have been checked
- Professional credentials or qualifications have been verified
- Safety practices or policies have been reviewed
- The Provider is endorsed, recommended, or approved by Homebase
- The Provider's staff, employees, or volunteers have been screened
- The quality of services provided has been evaluated
YOUR RESPONSIBILITY: Regardless of whether a Provider displays a "Verified" badge, you remain solely responsible for conducting your own due diligence, including background checks, reference checks, and evaluation of any Provider before engaging their services for your family.
Provider Relationships & Assumption of Risk
By using Homebase to discover, contact, or engage with any Provider, you acknowledge and agree that:
- Any agreement, contract, or arrangement you make with a Provider is solely between you and that Provider
- Homebase is not a party to any transaction, agreement, or relationship between you and any Provider
- You assume all risk associated with engaging with any Provider, including but not limited to physical injury, property damage, emotional distress, or any other harm
- Providers are independent third parties and are not employees, agents, contractors, or representatives of Homebase
