LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--ABC Kids Expo, Booth #138– Project Nursery, the definitive authority on baby’s first room, and VOXX Accessories Corporation, a leader in consumer electronics, announced today the release of the Parent + Baby SmartBand, a first-of-its kind wearable device created specifically for parents and powered by world-class technology. From scheduling and tracking events for mom and baby to streamlining digital communications, the SmartBand offers thoughtful features and capabilities to simplify daily family life and keep baby and mom healthy through infancy and beyond.
“We are so proud to introduce the world’s first wearable specifically designed for prenatal and postnatal moms. The Parent + Baby SmartBand is a truly breakthrough solution, offering a convenient platform to relieve some of the chaos and concerns that come along with being a new parent,” says Ian Geise, President of Voxx Accessories. “The SmartBand’s vast feature set enables parents to continue using the device long after baby is out of diapers, making it a lasting and valuable purchase.”
Sleek in design yet dynamic in function, the SmartBand syncs with its iOS and Android apps using Bluetooth Smart to create an easy and seamless user experience with smartwatch notifications for caller ID, text messages, and app notifications. Some of the many tracking functions include logging important events, such as breastfeeding and bottle feeding, pumping, pre- and post-natal vitamins, medications, diaper changes, fetal movements, child weight, and naps, as well as a tracker for parents’ hydration, weight, diet, exercise, and sleep. The app also features a customizable reminder and alarm function to help parents stay on schedule as well as “messages of encouragement” throughout the day to keep mom happy and motivated.
Other features include an activity tracker for mom, which shows steps, distance, calories burned, and activity time. The app also saves historical data for both mom and baby in graphs and logs, making progress easy to share with family pediatricians and physicians. The SmartBand’s touchscreen and durable wristband are designed to keep up with parents through diaper changes, bottle washing and sleepless nights. The splash and sweat-resistant device features an extra-long battery life, with up to 30 days of battery life per charge, best in class across all activity and fitness trackers.
“As moms ourselves, we know how difficult it can be to keep up with all the feedings, diaper changes, and nap schedules - not to mention our own needs,” says Melisa Fluhr, Co-Founder of Project Nursery. “By marrying our parenthood expertise with the advanced technology of VOXX, we’re empowering new parents to stay organized and on-track, feel confident, and look good during daily family life chaos.”
Available in February 2017, the parent + baby SmartBand will retail for $149.99 and will include three different colored wristbands – blush pink, white and black.
Project Nursery electronics are available in stores nationwide, including Buy Buy Baby, Babies”R”Us, Giggle, and Brixy, as well as online retailers including the Project Nursery Shop and Amazon.
