Happy CareDrivers say

What I love most about is having the opportunity to help those that need and depend on HopSkipDrive. It gives me a sense of responsibility and a feeling that I am doing something of purpose. I also enjoy seeing some of the same riders on a continual basis.

In addition, the flexibility of my schedule gives me the opportunity to do the other things I enjoy doing.

– Anja

I love being a CareDriver! I really enjoy being able to connect with the riders and hope to be a bright spot in their day. I have driven all kinds of riders ranging from young children going to school to the elderly going to doctor appointments. 

The people that I meet every day inspire me. I’m grateful to be able to get paid for giving this service.
