We Tried Kango Car Service For Kids

Read Our Review

By Courtney Daly-Pavone February 5, 2020

Kango is an amazing resource. How many times have you been stuck at work, sick in bed, or running around unable to be in two places at once? 

Kango has drivers and sitters that have been vetted and are available for your kid's busy schedule. That includes pick-up and drop off, extracurricular activities, and back home.

Each Driver or Sitter Must Pass A Kango Safety Check Which Includes:

  • Trustline certification in California (includes fingerprinting)
  • Background check (includes criminal and sex offender searches from multiple states, counties and databases as well as check for multiple aliases)
  • DMV check (from multiple states, counties and databases)
  • Vehicle inspection
  • Phone screen
  • Two reference checks
  • In-person interview

As parents, sometimes you wish you had a clone, Kango is the next best thing! 

After downloading the Kango App, a Kango driver picked my son up from school on time, and dropped him off safely at home. Each driver has booster seats available, and they can transport up to three children per ride.

My kid loved being chauffeured. His driver Lynda was an experienced driver, a mom of five, and had a pleasant disposition. I could track the drive on my phone. Honestly, it couldn't have been easier. 


Kango's service is for kids from preschool to high school, and in today's hectic world this service comes in handy. I would definitely use Kango again, especially when in a pinch. I trust their service which is new in San Diego, but started five years ago in San Francisco.  Kango was even voted best car service for kids by San Francisco Magazine in 2018!
