Remote Work Reduces Family Management Complications
Zoom came into its own in 2020 owing to that year’s health crisis, but decentralized remote tech was around before then. Have you heard of BYOD? BYOD stands for Bring Your Own Device, and it is a business model that allows companies to be productive at a fraction of the cost running a physical office in a rented commercial space would require.
Through remote work, 25% of all jobs in the USA are now of a kind that require no physical presence from employees. They can work from home if they like, or the beach. For parents, this is a lifesaver. Instead of commuting to or from work, and juggling all the complications of parenthood, you can just log on at home, get things done, and be there for your kids.

Smartphones and Baby Monitors
Today’s “smart” baby monitors can use WiFi as a means of sending a signal, meaning you can listen to and actually watch your child wherever you happen to have a smartphone.
Before, baby monitors worked like walkie-talkies, and that came with certain restrictions in terms of capability. Through smartphone tech and IoT (Internet of Things) innovation, you’ve got quite a lot of options to explore as a parent.
Using Modern Technology to Your Advantage as a Parent
IoT through smartphones enabling more convenient monitoring solutions, tele-health solutions facilitating at-home medical appointments, and decentralized work infrastructure through the web represent key aspects of tech innovation that are very convenient for new parents. If you’ve just become a dad or mom, look into how tech might just make your life easier.
