Taxi or Prearranged Driver - Italy Car Drop off

My family (two adults, toddler and 8 month old) will be dropping a rental car off at the Hertz near Fiumicino. We are then staying in Rome for 3 nights. Since we will have children, we will also have car seats. Is it better to prearrange a pickup with our hotel which would require a stricter schedule or get a taxi? Are taxis easy to come by at the car rental areas? Will a taxi have a problem with us strapping in car seats?

Thank you!

I do not have experience with taxis from the rental car area, but there are plenty at the train station. I found that all taxis had seat belts so as long as you are ok strapping in the car seats using seatbelts you should be fine. I would have to think that taxis are pretty prevalent at the car rental spots though, so if it were me, I would just go with the flow and take my chances.
