Guard-A-Kid

Guard-A-Kid Franchise Business

Own your own home-based or kiosk-based franchise and help children in your community stay safe with a valuable service. According to law enforcement throughout the United States, a parent's best assurance for the quick and safe recovery of a missing child is to have a complete profile of the child on hand. They also believe that education and safety precautions are key factors in avoiding this incident. Guard-A-Kid™ offers a complete child ID and child safety package to parents. During a Guard-A-Kid child Safety Event in a school or daycare, parents can choose from a variety of printed and digital I.D packages for their child. While others offer a single printed ID card, Guard-A-Kid™ provides parents with two wallet-size printed IDs, a large file-size ID, and most importantly a CDROM
that contains all of the child's information in a digital format ready
to be sent to law enforcement.

A variety of high tech child and family safety products including a GPS child locating device are also offered to parents by each Guard-A-Kid Franchise.
