Is HopSkipDrive Safe?

All drivers must go through a 15-point certification process in order to qualify as a CareDriver. That includes passing an FBI criminal background check, getting fingerprinted and having a good driving record. Along with passing a rigorous safety inspection on their car, and having childcare experience.

HopSkipDrive also tracks all rides in real-time. So you will always know where your child is. Drivers wear bright orange uniform shirts that make them easily identifiable, along with company flags on their car so your child knows what car to look for.

The company also encourages families to come up with a secret password that only the child, their parents, and the driver know. This helps prevent imposters from posing as a CareDriver.

Parents will also receive an alert when the drivers is on the way to make a pickup. They will also receive another alert once the child has been safely picked up and a third when the child is dropped off.
