Totally cool. That is what 8-year-old [Kango passenger will tell you.From a mom: 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.~Claudia A.*****************************************HOW KANGO WORKSKango gives you access to an incredible selection of pre-screened drivers and sitters.

The drivers are screened and they have their own car seats which saves a lot of hassle.~Blanca"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."~Leah G."I'm sad that Shuddle closed, but I'm happy to have found Kango" ~ NinaFROM KANGO DRIVERS AND SITTERS:"I love being a part of the Kango family, especially driving the little ones around...I can interact directly with the parent within the app and can schedule my rides ahead of time. It's an app with a human touch."~StassaHaving two teenage kids of my own, I drove my kids to school myself for years...I do this for Kango now and it puts a smile on my face. I'm grateful to be able to continue this very important work.~LolaFROM THE PRESS:"They say it takes a village to raise a child, but an app called Kango is bringing that idiom into the 21st century [ ] Kango is going to make parents' lives much easier."--Business Insider"Parents will like this app, but kids who used to get stuck waiting for a ride home will love it." --Techcrunch**************************************************INFO:Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
