Written by Karen Sampson
If you’re looking at jobs in Denver that are flexible and pay well, becoming a HopSkipDrive CareDriver might be a good opportunity for you to explore. HopSkipDrive is a technology-based solution that helps to arrange safe, reliable rides for students in numerous cities across the U.S., including Denver.
Founded by three moms who were struggling to manage the complicated transportation needs for their families, HopSkipDrive helps parents, school districts and social service agencies get children (ages 6 and up) where they need to go.
Ensuring the safety of every child and every ride is at the heart of HopSkipDrive’s mission. We’re committed to going above and beyond to not only meet but exceed safety standards — from our sophisticated technology that tracks every ride, to the always-on Safe Ride Support system, to our COVID-Safe Ride Standards to our 15-point driver certification process.
As far as flexible jobs in Denver go, being a CareDriver is a unique experience that offers a wide range of benefits. CareDrivers set their own schedules, and are able to choose when — and where — they work. Competitive pay is another advantage; CareDrivers can earn up to $32 an hour, and are also eligible for bonuses and other incentives. One of the most distinct gains CareDrivers get to experience is the opportunity to make meaningful connections in their communities.
“Thank you for allowing me to make a difference in the world we live in, by caring for children and safely dropping them off and picking them up from school and home,” says one CareDriver.
Another CareDriver reports: “I love driving for HopSkipDrive. It’s fun to pick children up from school to help out the parents. It’s very safe, and the screening for drivers is excellent. Customer service is always so helpful and cheerful. It’s a great company to work with.”
In addition to helping to arrange rides for kids to and from school, after-school activities and appointments, HopSkipDrive also helps to facilitate safe transportation for senior citizens and children who are in foster care, have special needs or are experiencing homelessness.
Being a CareDriver requires a special set of skills, which is one of many things that set it apart from other jobs in Denver. For instance, at least five years of caregiving experience is required. In addition, CareDrivers in Denver must be at least 23 years old, have a clean driving record and own (or have access to) a reliable, four-door vehicle that’s less than 13 years old. CareDrivers also undergo a rigorous screening process (including fingerprinting).
Everything involved in being a CareDriver is made easy with the HopSkipDrive app. CareDrivers can select rides that work for them, see the routes they’ll be driving, get background information about their Riders and track their earnings — all in one place.
For all these reasons and more, being a HopSkipDrive CareDriver is one of the best opportunities out there when it comes to flexible jobs in Denver.
