We Put Your Kids' Safety First
As parents ourselves, we only accept background-checked, fingerprinted Drivers to whom we would entrust our own kids. They ride with Kango too!
Our drivers are local babysitters, moms, and teachers with 3-20 years of childcare experience, who have passed our comprehensive screening process.

What Parents Love About Kango
"All in all, the service has been a godsend for our family (two kids, two adults who work full time). We plan to use it even more as the kids grow older and their interests diverge, necessitating more parent time driving to the their different activities."
"I chose to use Kango because it is the most convenient way to get around with a toddler. The drivers are screened and they have their own car seats which saves a lot of hassle."
"I work full time so I thought I'd have to skip opportunities for my kids that are off site from school/after-school care...so finding out about Kango was great! And my son, who is often tentative with new people and processes, is completely comfortable and even enjoys the rides (and story times!) with the driver."
