Renata was absolutely amazing! She made me feel completely comfortable the second she walked in and my son absolutely loved her.
Carmela was great to work with, she took excellent care of our 5 month old and followed our routine. She has a very gentle and caring energy and was patient with our baby. Would definitely use her again!
Jack was amazing with our dog Brewster. He's not used to being left with new people, but he immediately loved Jack and made our trip to NYC really easy.
Renata was the best! Kept them busy the whole time. She’s has a wonderful energy! Our kids got attached to her after just 2 hours and asked to see her again when we come back to NYC.
We just got back from our trip with our travel sitter Renata. First of all, she brings so much passion and love to the job and to our son. Our two year old really enjoyed spending time with her with all her toys and games to play.

We just got back from our trip with our travel sitter Renata. First of all, she brings so much passion and love to the job and to our son. Our two year old really enjoyed spending time with her with all her toys and games to play. It’s important to us to not just have someone watching our kid but someone who engages with him and goes on adventures - Renata does it all. Renata is on time, respectful, professional, and a joy to be around. She is fantastic and will be our vacation sitter for life. We are so glad we found Family Care Options. Less
Thank you so much for the great service. Renata was exceptionally great and had great energy and enthusiasm, my daughter loved spending time with her a lot. Again thank you.
Ardita watched our 18 month old son while we were in town for a wedding. She arrived on time and presented with an easy and kind personality. When we arrived back our son was peacefully asleep. I would trust her to watch him again.
Sam was fantastic with our 3 and 1 year old. Arrived early. Great communication and very engaging!
We had a great experience with Renata at Family Care Options. Very responsive, punctual, prepared, and great with our 15-month old. Very reassuring and we will definitely use again.
Renata is so friendly and engaged with our kids! They love her, i would definitely book her again when we are in town!
Carmela was a huge help. We requested care last minute (2 hour notice) and she was great. She took care of our 4.5 month old Akita. Would definitely request to work with Carmela again.
Thank you Aira for taking such great care of my pup. Teacup Pom with a lot of attitude, but she seems to have done great with you!! Thank you again!
FCO has been a great help to our concierge team, always dependable and flexible with our guests!
There are services you can always trust and Family Care Options is one of those services. I've had the pleaure of using their services for over 20 years and I look forward to many more.
We have used Family Care Options for both child and adult care and they provide the very best caretakers for our guests.
I cannot say enough amazing things about the sitter we had tonight. She arrived having studied all four of our children’s names, ages and preferences. She brought a bag full of games like Marry Poppins. She was absolutely wonderful. If there was a 6th star, I’d give it.
Hi, Cate handled our dog’s care very responsibly, and took her on a late night walk which we definitely appreciated. All went well. Thank you!
Our pet caregiver, Nicholas, was timely, patient and made our trip much more fun. Bunty adopted him very quickly - and we three (2 pet care givers and one dog) recommend him heartily
Fantastic! Will use again for sure.

As a babysitter, I appreciate the well-managed approach that Family Care Options provides. Working for FCO has been a rewarding experience due to their commitment to creating quality care. It is a pleasure to work with a dedicated team.
Love the company, great work environment and very accommodating to students as well as people who work full time

This place is the best! I work at a Hotel and was having trouble finding reliable day care services for a guest, last minute at that. I spoke with Maria over the phone and she walked me through the whole process; rates, minimums, the services they offer, and even expedited the process which made me and the guest VERY happy :) Maria kept in contact with us the entire time, with me through Email and with the guest over the phone, to ensure we were kept up to date on the arrival time of Schylar. (Whom the guest's child absolutely LOVED!) The fact that they go to your Hotel/Residence is a HUGE bonus, especially for the busy parent who's always on the go. It's one less thing to worry about. Not only will I continue to use their services in the near future, I've already spread the word to other hotels and will ONLY be recommending Family Care Options from now on at my property. Their professionalism, communication, and convenient service make them the best care service I've worked with. I'd trust them with MY kid! Less
What a great group to work with. On time, extremely nice and helpful. We felt very comfortable with everything bc of the way the handled every situation. The hotel backed them. It was a awesome experience
Our sitter was phenomenal. She brought games for our children and was so caring. My 6 and 8 year old loved her!
Great company to work with and helpful for managing our babysitting needs during our trip to the city. Special thanks to Carmela who was fantastic, our kiddo loved spending time with her!
Veronica was great at managing and taking care of my kids, she was good at preparing pancakes too which was an added bonus for my daughter !
Great service, including for last minute booking!
I have used Family Care Options for many years now when staying in NYC hotels with my dog. I have found all of their pet sitters to be excellent. They always arrive early. They are extremely professional. Take excellent care of my poodle. Are extremely polite and responsible. I highly recommend this company !!

When we were hurrying to find a new sitter with a short turnaround time, Maria and Family Care Options confidently assured me that they would be able to help us to find someone great by our deadline. They did that and more. Communication during the recruitment process was always clear and honest, and when we chose Nicole as a long-term sitter after interviewing a few candidates, she was consistently on time, kind, reassuring, communicative, showed good judgment, and best of all my daughter really loved playing with her and became comfortable with her pretty quickly. I would highly recommend Nicole to anyone looking for someone reliable who has a great way with kids. Less

All the hotels are very welcoming to me and help start each job off on a positive note. Working, I get to meet and most importantly watch children of varying ages who visit New York from a variety of places. The work is truly fulfilling and lots of fun! Whether it’s taking a walk in Central Park with them, bringing them to the Museum of Natural History, doing a scavenger hunt throughout the hotel, or having a relaxed movie night, it’s always an amazing experience we share.

I called Family Care Options to request a babysitter for our 2 children and dog walker for our Scottie. The service was so personalized.They actually meet all of their caregivers! Amazing. My husband and I had piece of mind leaving our children every day after the family events during our trip. I highly recommend Family Care Options and I will be using them again when I return to New York . Less

Four Seasons Hotel To Whom It May Concern: My Husband & I on a visit to New York staying at the Four Seasons Hotel were in need of a Nanny Service. The Nanny service we used was Family Care Options.. Our children were treated with true loving care. We would recommend them highly.
