Developer Description
Safe, reliable rides for kids age 6+
HopSkipDrive is the safest, tech-enabled youth transportation solution for kids ages 6+. Today’s schools, organizations and busy families depend on HopSkipDrive to get kids everywhere they need to go, 7 days a week.
SAFETY IS HOPSKIPDRIVE’S #1 PRIORITY
Rides are provided by trusted CareDrivers — ‘caregivers on wheels’ — who have a minimum of 5 years of caregiving experience and pass a rigorous 15-point certification process, including fingerprinting, background checks, car inspections, and more (full 15-point certification process listed below).
HopSkipDrive CareDrivers have provided more than 2M+ rides over 20 million safe miles driving kids to and from school and activities.
Our U.S.-based Safe Ride Support team monitors every HopSkipDrive ride in real-time, giving parents and caregivers greater peace of mind by proactively preventing any issues.
This is in addition to many other safety mechanisms, including a patent-pending multifactor authentication process on pickup, GPS tracking, full real-time transparency for parents/caregivers, and more.
EASILY SEE UPCOMING RIDES AND GET CAREDRIVER DETAILS
If your school or another organization is booking transportation for your child, you can see what upcoming rides are booked through your HopSkipDrive app.
For families directly booking rides for kids, you can add single rides, repeating rides, or multi-stop rides directly in the app. You can also leave location-specific notes about pickup, like if your child needs to be signed out of school or walked into their karate class.
You’ll get information about your child’s CareDriver in advance: a photo, bio and vehicle details. This helps you know exactly who is giving your child a ride and prepare your child for their upcoming ride.
TRACK YOUR CHILD’S RIDES IN REAL-TIME, DIRECTLY IN THE APP
Parents and caregivers love the ability to track their child’s ride in real-time directly in the HopSkipDrive app, whether you or your child’s school booked the ride! HopSkipDrive will also send you notifications for each stage of the ride, like when the CareDriver is on their way and when your child has been picked up and dropped off safely.
Keep in mind that if a school or organization booked the ride, they can also track the ride in real-time. And again, our Safe Ride Support team is watching every ride in progress.

we are LOVING this system. super efficient and punctual. my child arrives home from school peaceful and not stressed out from a crazy bus ride. drivers show up on time and cars are super clean. I'm able to watch the entire trip on the app. communicate with drivers and I get alerts in advance of every trip. drivers are polite and trustworthy. customer service is 5 stars within the app as well. User interface of the app is very easy to use. I have no complaints xo
So grateful this service exists, and I have never not had a driver available, but sometimes it's a close call. I do not like when the driver changes within 1-2 hours of pick-up time, which has happened numerous times. No local competitors means no real recourse for unsatisfactory service. But customer service is fairly responsive. I do like the update messages I receive for arrival, pick up, and drop off. The app says the drivers are supposed to wear orange branded t-shirts, but NONE ever do.
Customer care support ALWAYS works with me to solve any issue I've had. my only complaint is they're system in updating important information such as pick up and drop off.
my disabled son's school uses this app for his mandated transportation. the app developers fail to assist the drivers in finding school pickup areas for special needs kids so the drivers will often mark my son as absent for the pickup then abandon him. he gets to wait an hour for a new driver when that happens
