GoBabyGo is a program of the University of Delaware committed to all people exploring their world via independent mobility.

Eligible children will receive custom electric ride-on cars that empower greater mobility and independence.

  • Significant mobility deficits

  • Cognitive age of 12 months or greater
  • No severe visual disorder
  • Enthusiastic parent(s) with ability to supervise a child in a car

The program will fit cars and deliver them to participants at the GoBabyGo workshop at New Trier High School in Winnetka.

Visit ISBA’s website to learn more about the GoBabyGo program.
