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.

What is GoCityKids? GoCityKids gives you 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 afterschool activities, day camps, sports equipment, 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 highlights the non-touristy attractions, child-friendly restaurants, and safe areas to play. We also suggest easy ways to get around town, family-friendly lodgings, and key contact information that will make your stay safer and more pleasant.
