Family Cabs, a Christchurch-based taxi service, was founded in 2022 by Lisa Smith, a working parent who recognized the need for safe and reliable transportation for children and families.
The company began as Cabs4Kids, specializing in a child-friendly taxi services with car seats and thoroughly vetted drivers.
