Kidmoto App Offers Kid-Friendly Taxi Rides for Philadelphia Parents and Children

PHILADELPHIA, March 6, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Parents who fear traveling with car seats when calling a taxi from the airport now have a safe, convenient, no-hassles answer with the Kidmoto app, a startup car transportation service that is expanding services to Philadelphia on March 6, 2019. The service has operated in New York City since 2016.

"Travelling with children can be a nightmare. Kids can be tired, cranky, and irritable. That's the last thing parents need is to worry about traveling with a 25-pound car seat – or wondering if the taxi driver has car seats that are the right size for their child, or children," said Nelson Nigel, founder of Kidmoto which offers rides via website or app from airports or throughout the greater Philadelphia area. "Kidmoto removes the stress parents feel when traveling with youngsters."

Fox 5 in New York City exposed the problem of transporting your "most precious cargo" -- your children – when traveling. See the 2:16 minute video here:

To interview Nelson Nigel and find out the five things parents must do to protect their children when using a taxi, call 516-584-5391.

Kidmoto uses Federally approved car seats and trains all their drivers on the proper use and installation.

"When I first started as a yellow taxi driver in New York City in 2008-2009, I didn't know the different car seat options, like front facing, rear facing or booster seats," Nigel said. "Now I'm an expert and trained all our drivers so they know which seat to use so children are safe and secure. We are a kid-friendly service."

All car seats comply with state and city laws.

"Your children deserve the best when traveling to and from the airports. Car seats are important for their maximum safety. Other major car transportation providers don't provide installed car seats. They ignore the safety -- and convenience -- concerns of parents with young children."

Kidmoto solves problems for parents seeking airport car transportation. Major car services do not provide pre-harnessed and pre-installed car seats for child passengers, leaving children vulnerable to injuries, in case of an accident. Kidmoto offers a safe and convenient alternative.

"Parents generally do not travel with small children because of the inconvenience of traveling with car seats and others worry about getting transportation. Many parents can now travel to Philadelphia with their small children because they now have an option for safe and convenient family travel with Kidmoto. Kidmoto is essentially creating a new market because parents did not think this was possible before," said Nigel. 

In addition, Kidmoto is a reservation based service, parents schedule their vacations in advance to make sure they have a car at the airport to transport them and their kids.

Kidmoto drivers provide pre-harnessed and pre-installed convertible car seats for infants, toddlers, small and large children. This service is not offered by any of the major providers in the Philadelphia marketplace.

Kidmoto provides transportation in 3 different vehicle classes- sedans, minivans, and large SUVs. These vehicles can be equipped with 1 to 4 car seats.

Kidmoto's driver recruitment process promotes a safe environment for both the driver and the passengers.

"You can have confidence with our drivers," Nigel said.

TESTIMONIALS
Mommy Poppins listed Kidmoto as a "staff favorite" and said finding a car service that can offer child seats "it's probably one of the most frequent questions we get asked by tourists and locals alike." 

"We had a wonderful experience with Kidmoto when traveling to NYC with our toddler. The driver was on time (even early and waiting on us for the pick-up/return!), the car seat was installed, the vehicle was clean - just a wonderful experience all around! It was one less thing to worry about during our busy trip! The driver definitely was kid friendly, he had stickers for our son, small toys in the vehicle, some great distractions for our half hour+ drive into the city from LGA. We will use them when we return," said Jenny Sullivan of Excelsior, Minn.

"When I was organizing our trip to NYC, I found Kidmoto's website and I couldn't be happier. The driver was looking after us (and the baby, playing with him) all the time in both our rides (from and at the airport). He takes great care of us," said Chantal Blanco of Barcelona.
