T.O.T.S., also known as Tiny Ones Transport Service, is an American animated children's television series created by Travis Braun. The series debuted on Disney Junior on June 14, 2019. It focuses on Pip and his friend Freddy who tend baby animals during their lives at a transporting service nursery.

Premise

Pip and Freddy are two delivery birds in-training at T.O.T.S. (the Tiny Ones Transport Service). T.O.T.S. is a place where baby animals are nursed before being delivered to their families.

When a baby is ready for delivery, they are placed in a crate having colored edges indicating the gender of the baby: blue (male) or pink (female). When the baby reaches their family, Pip and Freddy, as with all delivery birds, would photograph the family with their computer tablet, called a FlyPad, for confirmation.

Besides delivering babies, Pip and Freddy also learn to solve problems under the guidance of K.C and Captain Candace Beakman, along with the other delivery storks.

Characters

Main

• Pip (voiced by Jet Jurgensmeyer in Seasons 1-2 and Tucker Chandler in Season 3) is a young Adélie penguin who serves as Freddy's navigator and is the main protagonist of the series, along with Freddy. First mentioned in episode "Back to Cool," his birthplace is Iceberg Alley, home of Penn and his parents, and other penguins. His catchphrase is "This penguin's got a plan!" Jet Jurgensmeyer stopped voicing Pip after Season 2 due to puberty, so Tucker Chandler took his place for Season 3.
• Freddy (voiced by Christian J. Simon) an ordinary flamingo who is Pip's partner, and the one who does the flying. Freddy's also the main protagonist, along with Pip. Freddy has long wings that help him fly. His catchphrase is "Flamin-go!"
• Captain Candace Beakman (voiced by Vanessa Williams) is a pelican who is the leader of T.O.T.S. She is also the mother of Mia the Kitten. Captain Beakman has a brother in law named Sam & a younger sister named Cora.
• K.C. (voiced by Megan Hilty) is a koala who works at T.O.T.S. who tends to the babies in the nursery before they get delivered. K.C. is also a guitarist. K.C has a brother, two sisters, a grandmother, and a surrogate uncle who is a cow. K.C. affectionately refers to the babies at T.O.T.S. as "Lil' Nuggets."

Recurring

• Bodhi (voiced by Parvesh Cheena) is an insecure stork deliverer with the biggest wings at T.O.T.S. Bodhi tends to get spooked by mostly ordinary things, but is willing to help when assistance is needed.
• Ava (voiced by Melanie Minichino) is a street-talking female stork deliverer at T.O.T.S.
• J.P. (voiced by Henri Lubatti) is a prideful French-accented stork deliverer at T.O.T.S.. J.P is one of the finest deliverers at T.O.T.S. J.P. won "Delivery Bird of the Month" ten consecutive times, thus Pip and Freddy see him as a role model. J.P. was also the company's fastest deliverer until J.P. was succeeded by Ava who in turn was succeeded by Bodhi. In the premiere episode of Season 2, Puppy Problems, J.P. becomes a father to a dachshund puppy named Lucky who is very mischievous, but J.P. fails to notice this. In the series finale episode of Season 3, Baby Fliers, he delivered Pip and Freddy when they were babies.

• Mia (voiced by Charlie Townsend) a kitten who is the adopted daughter of Captain Beakman. Her catchphrase is "Mia help! Mia help!" when someone wants help with something, but even she needs help. In the episode "Lend Me Your Paw," Mia looks up to Pip and Freddy as her big brothers. Mia is the first baby whose name didn't start with the same letter as her animal species.
• Peggy (voiced by Angelica Hale) is a polar bear who wanted a better baby brother than her brother Paul until Peggy heard he got stuck in a small cave in the episode "Bringing Back Baby". She reappeared in the episode "Snow Place Like Home."

• Red, (voiced by Hadley Gannaway) Jed, (voiced by Remy Edgerly) and Zed (voiced by Julian Edwards) are the stork triplets who visit T.O.T.S. in the episode "Training Daze" and want to become junior fliers.
