You can do better than flowers and hug coupons this year!
Assemble the family group chat! Time is closing in on Mother’s Day. But what do you gift the woman who gave you life—who gave you everything? Another framed family photo for the gallery wall? It's starting to look cluttered. Fuzzy slippers? She’s already got 20 pairs. A bouquet of flowers? Not personal enough.
What does she really want? She’ll never tell you (she has everything she could ever need, right?), but don’t sweat it—we did our own digging.
According to OnePoll, a survey of 2,000 moms found that the thing they want the most on their special day is simple—they want time. Specifically, a whopping 58% of moms admitted to wanting free time to rest, spend time with their family, and to be able to “drop everything” for Mother’s Day.
So, there you have it—now you know just what will make her feel loved on this once-a-year holiday. But how on earth do you gift time?
No, Alarm.com has not yet perfected time machine technology. But we do support smart home security features that help moms of all kinds save time and enjoy some well-deserved peace of mind.
Smart home features to simplify life for every mom
Though most moms agree that time is the best gift, we know that one size does not fit all. From soon-to-be moms to working moms to dog moms, routines and needs may vary. But through Alarm.com, there’s a smart home solution to simplify and buy a little extra time for everyone.
The Busy Mom
For a mom of younger kids, morning and night are often the busiest times of the day. That’s why moms love Scenes. With Scenes, they can quickly turn off lights, lock doors, close shades, and adjust the thermostat to personal preference with the touch of a button. Scenes take the work out of morning and bedtime routines, so moms can spend more time with the little ones and less time completing mundane tasks.
The Dog Mom
Not all children are human—some come with furry tails and paws. For all the dog moms out there, Alarm.com indoor cameras are perfect for monitoring the pup back at home. With Two-Way Audio, dog moms can even catch and redirect their pup when they start to get into mischief.
Soon-to-Be Mom
For those deep in nesting mode, getting alerted when a new package arrives is vital. From diapers to meals to last-minute hospital bag essentials, smart home owners can set up Package Alerts with Alarm.com video doorbells to get notified as soon as a package arrives at the front door, when it’s not picked up, and if it goes missing.
The Grandmom
Alarm.com solutions also make it easy to stay connected to those who matter most. With Personal Safety & Awareness solutions, you can stay connected with Grandma–no matter where you are. Stay in the know on how Grandma is doing with features including activity level notifications and proactive Unexpected Activity Alerts that can alert you if something out of the norm happens at Grandma’s house. With Alarm.com, you can rest easy knowing Grandma is happy and healthy this Mother’s Day.
Every Mom
No matter the type of mom, one thing is for sure—they’re all stretched for time. Alarm.com Smart Arming is the ultimate “let mama sleep” tool. Smart Arming can arm or disarm the panel at a set time every day, or for more unpredictable schedules, use sensor data to detect activity in your home–disarming in the morning once you get up to start the day and arming at night when everyone is asleep. So, this Mother’s Day you can rest easy knowing the panel will auto disarm once the kiddos head downstairs to prep mom’s breakfast in bed.
Smart Arming uses system activity to simplify daily routines, reduce false alarms, and take the guesswork out of home security. Whether your family stays out late or sleeps in, your system adapts to you. Not the other way around.
