My son started nursery school in the fall, which was the first time he had been in the care of other adults, strangers to me, in the three years since he was born. Had you talked to me two years ago, I would have vowed that I was not going to send him to school, and was even contemplating homeschooling him; of course, all of this was due to the fear that something might happen to my only child. Then life happened.
My son became more independent, I began taking on more work, and after 6 months with a mother’s helper, I felt confident that enrolling my son in nursery school was the right decision for everyone. Nursery school would allow my son to exercise his independence away from me, socialize with other children his age, and even get to do lots of crafts that I just don’t have the patience to do at home. When September rolled around, he was ready…and so was I.
I dropped my son off on the first day of school, and he shot a casual look over his shoulder as he went to join the other children sitting around a table in his classroom. No tears, no cajoling, he was ready. And despite the slight fear I felt in the pit of my stomach, I was ready as well.
A Not Your Child Corp wearable GPS tracking device would definitely put my mind at ease with the school milestone. Not Your Child Corp sent us one of their GPS tracking devices in December, letting us get a feel for the device and its capabilities. I’m not the most tech-savvy of people, especially when it comes to electronics, so flashing LED lights are one of my favorite features, indicating charge level, connectivity and whether the GPS is fixed on the device’s (my child’s) position.
Not Your Child Corp’s team was incredibly helpful in setting up the device, and the site dashboard is easy to navigate in setting up your account with customized alerts and tracking your child’s location. You can set your notifications to email or text alerts, and listen up, parents of teens — you can use the Not Your Child Corp GPS tracking device to monitor your new driver! You can set your notifications to alert you when your child (the device) is speeding, idling, stopped, etc. Genius!
While I’m not quite at the driving stage with my son (and heaven help me when we get there), Not Your Child Corp’s wearable GPS tracking device does give me peace of mind when he’s in the care of others (my biggest worry in sending him to school). No matter the age of your child, or even your elderly parent (the GPS tracking device is great for elderly adults, with a fall alert feature), the Not Your Child Corp GPS tracking device is a welcome addition to any household.
The Not Your Child Corp’s Wearable GPS Tracking Device is available for purchase, visit them at notyourchild.com. To stay tuned to the latest news and happenings, follow Not Your Child Corp. on Facebook and Twitter.
