Private Student Transportation in Toronto

I'm looking for a service, other than a taxi cab, to collect my son from school and bring him to his therapy where I will meet him. I'm not having much luck finding anything. One place I contacted through their "request a quote" option, has not responded. I followed up with a telephone call and their voicemail is full.

Would appreciate any suggestions anyone can offer.

Would Uber work? Also, you mention therapy. Are there any safety considerations?

The school (and governing board) has indicated that at his age (9) a taxi is not a suitable option, as there is no police record (under the vulnerable sector) check for drivers. This would likely rule out Uber, too. The board is also working to find transportation, but it's not looking good.

There is no safety concern, really. He is petite and I'd prefer to use a school purpose vehicle that will accommodate his booster seat, or a small bus with seat belts.

How times have changed. When I was in grade 4 we were given TTC tickets. Took 3 buses to and from school. Some cabs are also school vehicles. Not sure where you live. This might help -
