About Us

Locally Owned and Operated

Debra Fortosis founded Elite Family Care in 2010 to provide reliable, safe, and compassionate caregivers for children. She loves matching families with loving and caring nannies and babysitters based on each family’s specific needs. Her passion is the safety and well being of your family members. Debra is the mother of two children and has five grandchildren. Debra has over twenty years of experience in corporate America as a business executive working with Fortune 500 companies. Her professional background serves her well doing what she does best: offering outstanding customer care and providing quality caregivers to local families as well as visiting families in the Southwest Florida area.

Elite Family Care and all of our nannies work together in supporting the following non-profits for Children:

Founded in 1968, Hope Children’s Home has rescued nearly 5,000 children between the ages of 2 and 18. Most of these children have been discarded, abused, unwanted, or orphaned.

Elite will be collecting needed items throughout the year to take to Hope Children’s Home. Please call us and we will arrange a pick-up for any items donated. For more information on items needed please go to: http://www.hopechildrenshome.org/immediate-needs/

Testimonials

Olivia was wonderful, she was on time, very kind and attentive to our instructions! The girls loved her and wished she lived in our home town so she could babysit all of the time.

Had to find someone to watch our almost 11- month old. FTM leaving my little one with a stranger for the first time, so, I did a ton of research and came across Elite Family Care. Debra was so kind and professional and put me at ease. Ellen was scheduled to come over and right away she made me feel very comfortable and I knew my baby would be in great hands. I hope we are able to schedule her again in the near future. I highly recommend this agency 100 percent!

Hansley was great!! My kids loved her - she got in the pool with them, kept them safe, and engaged, and did exactly what I was hoping for. She arrived on time and was totally professional. Definitely recommend her! She sat and did magnatiles with my son and drew pictures with my daughter. She even offered us suggestions about what we could do on our rainy afternoon.
