Like the Uber for modern families, Shuddle is a child transportation service for parents who are not available to pick up their kids. If your children are at school and for whatever reason who can't be there to bring them home, Shuddle offers safe rides home for your offspring.
Similar to lift-sharing apps such as Lyft, this child transportation service uses a community of verified drivers who have not only been screened, but have previous experience working with kids. You can use the app to book a ride as early as a week in advance and up to 48 hours beforehand. Once the ride has been confirmed, parents will receive the driver's name, picture and car model. They can also track the car with their smartphone.
