The amount you would have to pay to cover the hassle of having different car seats, installing/uninstalling, extra liability insurance etc. for the driver would make people opt not to use the service, making it not profitable. If it was profitable, it would already be offered.

This has been the general consensus. If you have a daily activity, it is $200/week. No thanks.


You won't be able to find someone willing to commit to every day for much less than $200.


But then you know them and probably have other duties.

HopSkipDrive has been live in DC for about 6 months now. Anyone with experience they can share, since this original post in June?
Eager to hear how it works if used for picking kids up from school when they need to be collected from inside the building versus them meeting the car at the curb.
Thanks in advance!

uhm, Uber already has that option. Scroll till you see Uber with carseat.



I've tried this twice and both times the driver had only a booster, not a real carseat.

Has anyone tried this car service for kids? It’s new to the DC area. Any feedback?
