Gocity.com - The City Guide for Parents

GoCityKids.com offer shortcuts to the city at its best (its parks, stores, professional services, restaurants, babysitters, places to stay, and entertainment, among other things). It's the answer to all those times you've wondered how to begin your search for after school activities, day camps, sports equipment, sports center, restaurants, transportation, childcare or a good pediatrician. Or what to do on a rainy Sunday, where to throw a party for an eight-year-old, and how to find camping equipment you can rent. For travelers who want an inside track on what's going on around town, GoCityKids.com highlights the non-touristy attractions, child-friendly restaurants, and safe areas to play. They also suggest easy ways to get around town, family-friendly lodgings, and key contact information that will make your stay safer and more pleasant. They also offer long term calendar of events highlighting kid-friendly events and activities around town, a weekly email newsletter bringing the best of the upcoming week right to your mailbox, a rating system that invites parents to evaluate what you like or don't about a particular service or place, online connections to family resources around town and information and resources organized by neighborhood.

"We're a group of veterans of the publishing and online worlds, who dreamed up GoCityKids to make our own lives as parents easier. GoCityKids is the city guide and family management tool we've always wanted. Aimed at both the city dweller and urban traveler, it appeals to what parents everywhere need—more time."

More than a simple listing, they select, describe, evaluate, and put you in contact with valuable people and places around town. They suggest how to get there, what to expect on arriving, and which age children might best appreciate the experience. And they solicit other parents' opinions so you can consult with each other before deciding which restaurant to go to or shoe store to shop in.
