Our Story
Mrs. Tiara Hilliard, the Founder & CEO of RouteStars is a loving mom of three, dedicated wife, IT professional, and proud veteran residing in Northern Virginia. As a Florida native, she moved to Virginia with her husband to start her own family.
Inspired by her own experience as a parent, she recognized the critical need for safe and reliable transportation for children. Witnessing the uncertainties caused by bus driver shortages, the stress of carpool chaos, and the never-ending traffic congestion, Tiara was fueled by passion and determination, leading her to establish RouteStars. The purpose of RouteStars is driven by an unwavering commitment to provide exceptional service and address these challenges head-on.
With her leadership and experience, combined with a genuine understanding of parents' concerns, RouteStars strives to become a trusted name in child transportation. RouteStars is a service that prioritizes safety and peace of mind.
Join us on this remarkable journey led by Tiara, where every ride with RouteStars reflects her dedication, care, and desire to make a positive impact on families' lives.
