About this listen
Joanna McFarland and a group of moms discussed the daily challenge of getting their kids from point A to point B at a child’s birthday party in late 2013. Joanna suggested they buy a van and hire all the moms and babysitters in the neighborhood to drive their children around. The idea sparked what would become HopSkipDrive: think not quite Uber for kids but more like caregivers on wheels.
Launched in March 2015 by Joanna, Carolyn Yashari Becher, and Janelle McGlothlin, the company has completed tens of thousands of trips and received $3.9 million in seed funding.
