$50 PER HOUR driving unaccompanied minors (children) to school in LA county, OC county, SFV, IE, and many other areas) as a CareDriver
Driving minors (preschool, elementary, middle, and high school students) to school as a CareDriver is a rewarding part-time gig opportunity. The schedule consists of 5 work weekdays, approximately 2 hours per day, PART-TIME driving, with an effective earnings rate of 45 to $65 PER each HOUR of active platform driving. By working part-time during school start and end hours, you can easily earn up to $2000 per month, and often MORE. You choose what rides you take and when you take them. Nobody will tell you “when you must work.” You will see the rides available five days in advance. Many of the students you will be assisting come from economically disadvantaged families; some are orphans, and others have disabilities. Your help in getting them to and from school is greatly needed and appreciated. The CareDriver business is growing quickly, and many new Care drivers are now required. CareDrivers serves thousands of students of the LAUSD and hundreds of other school districts in California, including hundreds of independent, private schools, magnet schools, and schools for children with disabilities.
I have attached a copy of my actual weekly earnings for your reference. While actively driving on the CareDriver platform, you can expect to earn as high as $1 PER MINUTE, or $4 - $5 per mile. I have done over 1009 rides with success as a CareDriver since January 2020 (and we were closed for a long time during the pandemic). The service area covers all of Los Angeles County, San Fernando Valley, Orange County, San Diego, San Francisco, and many other areas such as Riverside and San Bernardino Counties (as well as many other states).
As a CareDriver, you will be an independent contractor who uses their car for the service (no "company cars" are provided). At the end of the year, you will receive a 1099 tax form. You must note that you can deduct various expenses incurred while driving children to school. Still, I recommend consulting with a certified tax professional for specific details. Moreover, if you refer new CareDrivers to the platform, you will receive a $120 referral bonus after the newly approved CareDriver makes their FIRST ride. Moreover, currently, there is a promotion for the drivers which guarantees them $500 in earnings during their first week of service.

We must emphasize that this is a legitimate and serious opportunity to work as an independent Care Driver contractor. You will not have to pay any “application fee” to apply, to seek advice, or to receive my help with the CareDriver application filing. As an independent contractor, you can choose ONLY the rides you prefer, and you can book them up to 5 days in advance. You do not even have to drive every day or every week. You work as much as you want.
Additionally, you can also commit to a REPETITIVE RIDE series, which involves driving the same student at the same time four to five days per week. You can book those rides up to 3 weeks in advance. Furthermore, for all types of rides, if your booked ride gets canceled within 60 minutes before it starts, you will always get paid 100% of the CareDriver initial fee.
Please refer to the attached earnings statements, including my earnings for the third week of March 2024 and the first three weeks of March 2024.
By becoming a CareDriver, you will engage in noble, valuable, and positive community service. Your assistance will greatly benefit children, many of whom come from foster families, are orphans, come from low-income households located in economically depressed areas, or have disabilities. Your dedication will ensure that all of them will have the opportunity to attend a school that they would have otherwise missed.
