Child Minder Helps Protect Precious Cargo


Families with children need to take special care when it comes to their vehicles. Kids can get into a variety of dangerous and deadly situations involving cars, and it often seems to happen when the adults least expect it. We’ve all heard the stories; kids can dart out behind a vehicle as it backs out of a driveway, or they can climb into the car unattended and accidentally set it in motion, rolling into traffic.

Cars can be dangerous for kids, even when they’re securely parked. On average, 38 children die each year from heatstroke due to being left in a car. As unthinkable as it may seem, a parent can forget that his or her child is in the vehicle and sometimes go a full workday before they realize what has happened. Contrary to what some may assume, the parents who accidentally leave their children is cars are usually not neglectful, abusive or disturbed. The horrifying truth is that this tragedy can happen to anyone. A combination of busy schedules and stress make it frighteningly easy for this lapse of memory to occur.

In recent years, some child safety organizations have published tips to help parents and caregivers avoid leaving children in the car. While these tips are extremely helpful and needed, it’s always wise to have as much protection as possible. Baby Alert makes electronic devices that help protect kids. Their line of products is designed to act as a warning system that alerts the adult about a child left in a car.

The ChildMinder SoftClip® System is available in 1, 2 or 3-packs so that families with multiple cars can benefit from the safety features at a reasonable cost. The Infant-Toddler Elite Pad System is designed for use with booster seats but can also work with a regular car seat when the parent doesn’t wish to remove the factory-issued safety clips. How do these products work? The device replaces the regular strap on the baby’s car seat (or in the case of the Elite Pad, is installed inserted into the seat itself) and is activated as soon as the child is placed in the car seat. If the adult gets 15 feet from the vehicle for ten seconds or more, the alarm sounds.

Baby Alert’s products offer the most valuable thing for a parent: peace of mind. Learn more at www.babyalertusa.com
