Moms are super women.
Aside from
being the driving force of the household, many moms also play different roles
in the work place and in the community. They are the ultimate multi-taskers,
often having to sacrifice ‘me’ time for the sake of the family.
Balancing
multiple responsibilities is a challenge, even for the toughest moms, but
what’s probably most difficult is achieving peace of mind especially when they
have to be away from the young ones.
What’s a
mom got to do?
The answer
is technology. These days, smart gadgets and high-speed internet can empower
moms to be in control of the family’s safety and security.
Just ask
Asia’s Songbird and modern-day mom Regine Velasquez – Alcasid. Mom to four-year-old
Nathaniel James, more fondly known as Nate, Regine exemplifies the modern-day
Filipino mom who strikes the balance between her hectic work schedule and her
role as a family woman.
“Technology
helps me become a better mom,” she revealed. “Specifically, I get a lot of help
from PLDT HOME.” Regine, who is also an ambassador for the brand, added, “They
have a suite of products and services that are designed to give moms like me
peace of mind through the power of technology. So far, super helpful talaga siya for me especially when I
have to be away for work.”
Forefront of
strongest connections at home
As the
leader in digital innovations for the home, PLDT HOME designs its products and
services to help parents like Regine effectively multi-task while ensuring the
safety of their families. Two products which promote peace of mind among
working moms are the Fam Cam and Smart Watch.
The Fam Cam
is a home monitoring system which allows parents to check on their children
remotely, and even communicate with them. The Smart Watch, a personal favorite
of Nate, is a multi-functional gadget which kids can use to take photos, play
music, and even record voice messages.
According
to Regine, they use the Smart Watch to easily talk to Nate because he can
directly answer calls using his watch when it is connected to their Telpad or a
smart phone. The Alcasids also use it as a WiFi remote for the Telpad or smart
phone cameras so it’s easier to take selfies or groufies wherever they are.
Regine also
shared how the watch helps teach Nate to become more responsible and aware of
his surroundings. Nate’s Smart Watch can come to the rescue using the anti-lost
feature. He simply has to click on a button and the connected device will make
a sound so it can be located. The Smart Watch will also vibrate if Nate goes
more than 10 meters away from the paired device so if the Telpad or smart phone
is with Mommy Regine or Daddy Ogie, it will remind him to go back to them.
“Nate
really loves his Smart Watch,” Regine said. “As a parent, this is a gadget na approve sa akin kasi I can really see that it helps us bond better as a
family.”
New members
of the PLDT HOME family
Following
his mother’s footsteps, Nate was recently launched as the new ambassador for
the Smart Watch.
“We’re very
excited to have Nate on board,“ PLDT VP and Home Marketing Director Gary Dujali
said. “He represents the kids of his generation—perennially curious, smart and
dynamic. Together with his mom, we look forward to reaching to more families
and educating them about the ways technology can help bring them closer.”
Regine
added, “Siyempre, I’m super proud of
my baby boy! PLDT HOME is close to our hearts and as a family, we are proof
that technology can really help make our lives safer and easier.”
PLDT HOME subscribers who upgrade to
a Telpad plan automatically get a free 1Mbps HOME DSL speed boost, and for only
an additional P199 per month, they can already top up with a Smart Watch. The
watch is also available to existing Telpad subscribers. Simply order online and
it will be delivered for free. For more information, visit
