Back To School Safety for Kelowna Kids from Three West Security

Our smoky summer is winding down and thousands of Okanagan kids have recently returned to school. September is bustling with new classes, weather changes and many sports schedules starting back up. Many children arrive home alone after school and are unsupervised for hours at a time while parents finish up work for the day. Three West Security in Kelowna can set you up with a custom security package that enables you the ability to remotely check-in on the home front from afar.

More Kids Are Home Alone

Living with some of the highest real estate and gas prices in the country has forced many families to rely on longer work days. This often translates to arriving home at supper time or even later in the evening. Are you one of the households in this predicament? Would you feel better being able to receive a text alert once your child has arrived safe and sound? Communicating is essential for peace of mind. Having the ability to gently remind your kids to lock the door and reset the alarm is a great feature. Not to mention if they do get side tracked and forget, you can do it remotely with your phone or smart device!
