Alright, so it’s time to hire a babysitter. For some parents, the thought of this can be a bit anxiety-inducing, but it doesn’t need to be. (That’s where we come in.)   We’re here to give you a rundown on everything you need to feel comfortable and safe leaving your little ones with a sitter. Let’s get started.  Do your research.   If you are hiring a babysitter from a website or social media, it is  so important  that you confirm references for them.

Residential Tech Today Sound & Video Contractor Level Up Automation owner Jen Mallett doesn’t mince words about her ambitions to make smart home technologies more popular throughout the Boston area. “Smart home technologies have rapidly become more capable and more reliable while decreasing in cost,” Mallett explained. “However, most homeowners are still unaware of what’s available and how these easy-to-use tools can impact the comfort, convenience and livability of their homes.” Fewer still, Mallett says, have had the chance to personally experience the latest technologies.

Our approach to safety is holistic, so we’ve helped customers face  medica l emergencies , life-threatening fires, extreme weather conditions, and more. But you know what really gives us goosebumps? It’s not ghosts. It’s not spiders, or clowns, or ghouls, or vampires. What really gets us at Guardian Protection is a lack of awareness about home security. It spooks us to hear that anyone doesn’t feel safe in their home — the one place that’s just for you. Some emergencies are unavoidable. And while it’s not always possible to prevent them, it’s possible to prepare. And it chills our bones when people don’t! We’ve found one of the best ways to encourage preparedness is through education. When you know what the risks are, it’s easier to safeguard against them. So in the spirit of Halloween, let’s get a...
