Project Nursery Unveils the Parent + Baby SmartBand, the First-Ever Wearable Device Designed Exclusively for New Parents
The SmartBand Unites Parenthood with Technology to Make Every Day
Seamless, Stress-Free, and Stylish
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.
