Life can be unpredictable and scary situations often arise unexpectedly
Teaching awareness, implementing safety routines, and modelling appropriate behaviour are some of the most important life skills we can impart to our children to help them stay safe.
When they can't be with you, provide an additional layer of support (and comfort) with our comprehensive safety products.
Have you ever considered what would happen in these scenarios?
You are in a serious car accident with your 6 month old and they need help but you are unconscious
Your child has an allergic reaction on a bike ride and they don't have a way to reach you
Your absolute worst nightmare happens and your child goes missing from the playground
No one likes to contemplate these frightening scenarios but they can happen. Be prepared.
When there is no time to lose, get your kids the help they need FAST!
Both our Child Identity Kits and First Responder Emergency Cards store important, and often crucial, information that First Responders (Police, EMS and Fire) can access quickly when their assistance is required.

The best way to ensure your response in an emergency is timely, beneficial and appropriate is to be prepared
Why a First Responder Card?
Made for at-the-scene access by First Responders, or other helpful adults, to critical information about yourĀ child if they need medical attention or are found alone.
Quick intervention can help reduce injury, impact and trauma
Enables responders to:
- use your child's name to quickly reduce anxiety
- provide accurate and timely treatment if necessary
- interact thoughtfully and appropriately (special needs)
This card travels with/on your child
Why a Child Identity Kit?
Designed for immediate sharing with Law Enforcement if your child ever goes missing.
The first 24 hours after a child has gone missing are critical
Enables Police to quickly:
- release a detailed description of your child
- enlist all possible sources of assistance including the media and public
- alert airports, bus depots, border crossings, etc.
This kit is stored at home in an memorable, easily accessible location
High stress can negatively impact cognitive functions like memory and decision-making
"Oh, I'll be able to remember..."
Sadly, this is an alarming and potentially dangerous conviction held by some parents. They believe they will be able to recall pertinent, and possibly critical details about their child if they ever went missing.
This assumption is so unrealistic and unlikely that it is almost impossible. Most of us can't remember our children's shoe size on a regular day, let alone when we're panicking with high emotions, extreme stress and fear during an emergency situation!
It's been scientifically proven that we don't respond well in emergencies so having this unrealistic expectation is harmful and potentially detrimental to your child. Please don't rely on your brain to remember crucial information when you need it the most ā prepare in advance.
