Comparison
Rostavo vs Vars
Vars focuses on nanny and sitter placement. Here is how Rostavo compares.
Vars is a newer US platform built specifically for nanny and sitter placement, with ATS, CRM and AI. Rostavo matches that placement workflow but adds GPS-verified visits, multi-vertical support and transparent pricing — useful if your agency does more than placements or operates outside the US.
