## What is Kidcaboo?

Kidcaboo is the safest, most reliable, technology-based, driving nanny and childcare service for families and schools. When you can’t get them there, we will. From five years old to 16, Kidcaboo provides a personalized, secure and caring service door to door.

The Kidcaboo app for Parents is easy to use. Just download it and create your account then complete a detailed profile for each of your children including fun stuff like what are their hobbies and interests as well as important information like any allergies, medical conditions and contact info for their pediatrician. For extra protection, we ask you to create a secret word that only you, your child and guardian, teacher, coach or whomever they’re being dropped off to. You can change the word whenever you want and the Driving Nanny will ensure your child is placed in the hands of the right person, every time.

Once your account and profiles are created, now it’s time to start booking rides. Just tell us when and where your child is to be picked up, what it’s for and if it’s a round trip or one way. If it’s a regular ride like back and forth to school or soccer practice, don’t worry, we can handle that and if you need additional care for your child, let us know that, too.

Got a group of kids going to the same place? Maybe a birthday party or the soccer team needs to get home, no problem. Just set up a Carpool and invite the other parents of your child’s friends from your address book. They’ll receive a text message with a code inviting them to join the Carpool. If they have the Kidcaboo app on their phone, they open it and paste the code in their Carpool screen to connect their child. If they don’t have the app, there’ll be a link to download it from the app store.

After the ride or carpool is booked, the best Driving Nanny will be assigned, and you’ll get a notification of who that is with a link to their profile so you and your child will know who to expect. Driving Nannies will receive all ride details to ensure your child’s ride experience is the safest and best possible experience.

With dual facing cameras in every Driving Nanny car, separate safety driving software is built into the Driving Nanny app to ensure the safest, most consistent rides possible. Add to that a stringent vetting process that includes extensive background checks, personal and professional references, and multiple applicant interviews, results in the most reliable team of drivers anywhere.

The Kidcaboo safety features extend beyond the apps, deep into the system-wide monitoring of every ride our Nanny Drivers conduct. Tracking every ride in real time, providing peace of mind throughout the entire process.

Kidcaboo is currently available in Northern and Central New Jersey with plans to expand south and west across the country.

### 3/5 — Great concept

*2024-09-16*

Great concept but poorly executed and too expensive.

### 1/5 — Can’t sign up

*2024-08-06*

### 3/5 — Can’t sign up

*2024-07-28*

I tried to sign up and received a box telling me to select an address from the drop down but there was no drop down and I couldn’t even sign up.

### 2/5 — Poor leadership, spotty app

*2024-02-07*

It is really hard to understand the pricing structure and to get access to itemized bill that breaks down travel expense.the app was spotty and I could never track my children while they were riding with the driving nanny.  I think there is a lot of functionality comparable to other apps on the market - Lyft, Uber, bambino that could be incorporated. While they attempted to provide responsive customer. Service- I’m still waiting on something requested 2 weeks ago!

### 5/5 — Absolutely amazing.

One word: AWESOME

### 5/5 — Lifesaver

*2022-09-23, version 2.8*
